The words premature ejaculation sprung to mind when I read this post. Or perhaps knee jerk, chickens before they hatch etc. etc. Theres hell of a long way to go yet sunshine.
The way you described West Ham today could have also applied to our performance at Anfield and for 60 mins yesterday. Did you see that same Wet Spam team play at West Brom the other week. Great comeback but should have been 7 downs at HT. They are no better than us, neither are Blackpool, West Brom, Wolves, Birmingham, Fulham, Blackburn, Stoke and maybe 2 or 3 others. The fat lady may sing but not till May.

If some of you want to throw the towel in now, that’s your prerogative, but I have seen enough in the last 4-5 matches that still gives me hope that we will get out of this shytehole. :snooty:

Come on Parbold, Moses was on his last legs!!. :roll:
He ran himself into the ground first half and his legs just went after 65 mins.

Nothing at all to do with Bobby’s tactics. :hand:

I think you’ve totally missed the point Griff. Nothing to do with the fantastic facility afforded by the Club, more about the reasons why we have not been in there for the past 5 seasons. :snooty:

Don’t get me wrong, I hope the marriage is a successful one and although I drive to most home games now, I will bob in for the odd pint when the weather improves and it becomes a canal towpath venture rather than a cosy warm car ride.
Just bugs me to think that our supporters club and supporters, may have been victim of this hungry money making machine that is, the English Premier League. :snooty:

I’ll reply even though you obviously responded to Filmoss by mistake. :lol:

My point is that for some reason WASC either left the JJB, or was kicked out, or wanted to leave, or was victim of the club getting too big for their premiership boots etc. etc.
When this happened I thought, what a right old carry on, the supporters club being allowed to leave the stadium and go across the road to do their pre match socialising. My understanding was that the Tetley lounge became part of the corporate set up or the new blue chip lounge or summut and therefore the WASC were indeed deemed to be surplus to requirements.

As I say I might be way off the mark, but what I do know is that the old Tetley lounge is now almost empty on match days and perhaps hosting the WASC is now looking a better option for the club than the corporate milarky, which has died on its a_rse.

I never once indicated that you needed to dress up to go into this lounge, I went in there before every home game in my jeans, trainers and replica top and so did most others. What I meant was that the pre match drink, in my view, is best downed in less plush surroundings and so do many others, that’s one reason you’ll find the likes of the Brick bursting at the seams on match days.
The sports hall, as you say, is not the best place for the supporters club to host their pre match banter, its cold looking and uninviting, but as I said, they came to the rescue when something went wrong several years ago.

PS for your info, the manageress as you call her, will get the same wage whether the place has 1 or 10,000 in. However, Wigan Leisure & Culture Trust will lose some much needed income, at a time when they are already being hammered by the governments recent spending review cuts. :teasing-blah:

Any foreign channels showing this mate?
