    It was actually from page 169, not 223 – whose counting..

    Lying and/or making things up on an internet message board??? :o

    Whatever next? :)

    … and dont bang on about the Villa game coz (a)- I didnt go and (b)- Villa were prob rubbish !

    If a) is correct, how do you know about b)?[/quote]
    Read my post properly before you attempt to put me down Griff ! I said probably ( Well i actually abridged it to Prob ) Maybe my abbreviation confused you ![/quote]

    Nope, not confused, I just missed it the first time I read it. Sure you didn’t edit? ;)

    Anyway, I didn’t put you down, I simply asked a fair question. Or it would have been had I not missed the word “prob”.

    And to clear it up – in my opinion, Villa weren’t that bad but they were not allowed to settle for one minute by a Wigan team that passed like demons when they had the ball.

    I am at a bit of a loss to explain why we haven’t done it since.

    I started the book at page 223, where he talks about latics, there are only about three paragraphs about the Rugby all the way to the end.

    That was discussing what really happened with their board and how they stiffed their club and fans and left Whelan with the blame and the pieces.

    Good story about him taking on Boots cos they didn’t like a liitle shop on the market doing better than them…. sound familiar????

    Obviously I am going to regret this, but why oh why did you start at page 223?

    ….the guy was a dab hand at a few things such as playing a brass instrument

    I can state here and now, from first-hand experience and without fear of contradiction, that he was NOT a dab hand at playing the trombone. :geek:

    Unless you want your trombone to sound like a cat being raped :D

    Age and declining legs apart, that my friend, is codswallop.***

    ***GRIFF, that’s another word for you. :lol:

    Nah, codswallop doesn’t do it for me, Vat.

    You stick to your bailliwick* of eastern european football :lol:

    * bailliwick – a person’s specific area of knowledge or responsibility. Now THAT’S a word :ugeek:

    And how have saved 2 tonne mate, either me, garswood and jr are realy numb,or you are on a different planet pal, try reading your’e original post, you said you have cancelled the direct debit for wigan world thingymajig not your’e season ticket wich i presume is what you have really cancelled, if this is what you have done shame on you. :oops: :oops: :oops:

    And if you have cancelled the direct debit for the season ticket then you might be in for a shock because I’m sure you are still liable for the full whack.

    That said, I might not be right on that score.

    Oh dear oh dear, there are some bright sparks on here. Not exactly playing with a full deck you two are you. But out of pure pity for you, I shall spell it out. Season ticket at £250 minus 3 games at £15 each. Get the general idea?

    Hi, another “not so bright spark here”.

    If you’ve already bought the season ticket, how have you saved anything?

    I may have had a couple of hefty G&T already today, but I’m with Garswood and JR on this one.

    Explanation, and possibly paracetemol and coffee, required please :?

    Also, do you know how many people have entered to win the book????

    That was my grand plan for saving £20 :twisted:

    I’ve no idea what Diouf could have said racially to that ballboy at Everton. Have you? It’s all ridiculous. Yeah, he’s a custard, I know

    He said “F*** off, white boy”.

    If he’d said “F*** off, scouse t**t” I’d have let him shag my daughter.*

    * Difficult, as I don’t have one but you get my drift.

    Don’t you think the plod may have had something to do with it ,having a boozer so close to a stadium .

    Seems to work OK at Brentford :D

    in reply to: Reckon Wengers Worrled? lol #8904
    The 5-0 defeat against Manchester United probably looked damaging from the outside, but the first 50 minutes in that game helped us to win the game on Saturday against West Ham.

    Very clever line, that.

    Edit: From Martinez I mean, not from our little friend who will be off to bed soon at 19:32

    in reply to: SACK THE BOARD #8902
    Whelans done to you what hes done to Martinez. Fed a load of bull and the poor souls believe it. Took over Orrell, but ditched them. Took over Worryers, but ditched them. Stays with the club thats recieving a minimum £40m off Sky, £1/2m for each league position (that means last season £4.5m), £1/2m for being shown live (that means last season £4m), £10m in sponsorship, £40m in player sales, then add attendances, corporate sales, etc. So last season the poor chairman of Wigan Athletic had to make do with an absolute minimum of £100m.
    I hope he can manage. :lol:

    You simply can’t add up, can you son?

    How many people have to tell you you are wrong until you believe it? :roll:

    Should I tell my wife I have crabs?

    That would be shellfish of you not to.

    I haven’t got the mussel to deal with her response.

    Is it true you can get crab ointment for just sick squid?
