      “TBH, Uncle Dave only really means so much to Wigan folk and we all know that our exploits under Sir David are well and truly forgotten by the rest of the sporting media who lets face it would have rather it never happened at all. The man can do no wrong in my eyes but I doubt that alone is enough to get the great man his just deserts.[/quote]

      All very true!! There are some very deserving people who get honours, and some equally un- deserving ones!! For some it is little more than an “in house pat on the back for their mates” (Clegg).

      Mind you, he has been a donor of considerable amounts to the Tory party for quite a while – so his chances are increased.

      As you say, and I agree, in my Wigan-esque blue tinted eyes Sir DW (Lord) can do no wrong. So let’s give him a knighthood, make him a Lord (he already is one) OBE, MBE and a Dame for ‘services to WAFC and the people who have got a stacka fun from following the team’.

      That alone is more deserving that quite a few others.

        First of all – All Friendly Cockneys – let me wish you all a great, fun, goal filled, and happy 2018 which is a better year for us all than 2017.

        Secondly …. well, what a day at the office Northampton office that was … it all just seemed like hard work. Yes, we won and that was great but it just never looked like the usual seamless Wigan, that well oiled machine , that well made jigsaw where it all smoothly slotted together. Next time.

        Added to that the 2, yes 2 punctures enroute, but with some hard pedalling and a tail wind I got there in good time. Needless to say, by the end of it, I felt a little deflated. BUT, thanks to coach 2 for letting me cadge a lift to my drop off.

          If Clegg can get one then you, Whelan and a few others are certainly deserving.

              After yesterday’s master class where Nathan Byrne looked like Messi, I worry for 3 reasons.
              1. I just worry.
              2. We’ll be a tad complaceant
              3. Teams will come and play very very defensively – with 2 attackers for the quick break, 1 mid-fielder and 7 in the bus in the box.
              At least Cookie has told them to start shooting from outside the box rather than trying to dribble it into the goal. Well done Max!

                Bloody hell Brownbill are you one of those miserable Tw*ts that doesn’t like Christmas.

                Hey – I don’t like Christmas but don’t compare me to Brownbill :)[/quote]
                Humbug![/quote]

                Neither do I. Let’s have a CL ‘social cripples christmas! party’ where we won’t meet up. Others – family and friends can join in but we’ll not really speak to anyone. However, we can text and post on FB, with pictures if you must, but not too much jollity. If by chance we happen to be in the same pub at the same time we can sit at separate tables.

                Sounds ideal to me! I know that for sure I’ll enjoy it. Remember please – no games and no force me up to dance when I don’t want to.

                  Match report from the moaning reporter who wasn’t there.

                  Well done lads – my a*rse!

                  The first half was a bore; it was cold; Wimbledon don’t play in Wimbledon; I didn’t go and should have done; eventually Jacobs scored a scrappy goal; the fella in front of me was too big so I couldn’t see; Powell managed a full game without being injured or getting tired; Grigg didn’t score; Perkins wasn’t there; it didn’t rain; the ref nearly scored for them – see the evidence is there that they all hate us.

                  See – there is plenty to moan about – FFS Cookie – get it sorted.

                  I suppose, I’ll concede – we did win, only by 4 goals but we should reluctantly admit that Powell’s and Power’s goals were both a total fluke. Even more reluctantly we’ll admit they were bloody good. Do it again next week and I’ll begin to have some belief. NOT ‘faith’ because the definition of faith is ‘belief without evidence’ and I need the evidence, hopefully I’ll get that on 7 May, but I wont hold my breath.

                  1 positive is that at last 1 of strikers scored, albeit in the 94th minute and not as usual where it is either the defenders and midfielders.

                  Well done guys – good result, brilliant goals.

                    Brilliant win. Powell’s goal must be a contender for G O S. (Jacobs at Rotherham was a good ‘un as well).

                    Do we all love Max now?!!

                    Hacked off I didn’t go.

                      From Wimbledon’s perspective I’m thinking this will be a LONG game, as there goal just gets FULLER and fuller. It does MEADE they will have to be more than just TROTTERs, and several of their shots will just SOARE into orbit, with a LYLE bitta luck they may get a shot on target. We’ll hear their manager BARCHam at ’em. This game is TAYLOR made for us to win. However, I do know that they’ll fill their box like before a FORRESTER got to work, but I’ll be EGLI-ing the tics on. We’ve got the POWER, WILL will BURN, before DUNK-LEY balle en la goal. I don’t think there WILL be a REECE against time at 90 minutes today.

                      enough is enough!!!!!!!

                        God lad …. a guy near me on Saturday had about 6 layers and in between layers 4 & 5 was his hot water bottle!

                          By KO it’ll be hot (comparatively). Wear your shorts and t shirt.

                            JRFF …. your posts are great but your ‘avatar’ thingy is the best. I can see your frustration about almost everything, but it only makes me laugh!!!!

                              I’m going for Power, Perkins, Bruce and Toney to start ……. dunno who’ll go out Evans, Powell (injured), Burn & ???? ?

                              Just hope we can get a few in the net before they put 9 players in the 6 yard box, like last time.

                                  Glad you got it back. There are far more honest people around than dishonest, it’s a shame we don’t always hear about them.
                                  Even though it wasn’t me I’m looking forward to my mulled wine ;)

                                  “Mulled Wine”? Dunno what you are on about. Someone will get a banning order, of course it is non alcoholic … of course.

                                  Now you’ve confused me! I probably know who you are … why didn’t you get any?
