        I went to both days of the 1988 Centenary Tournament. Was sat next to Alan Johnson’s mum!

          I know, but we’ve sacked off many of those bottlers to you!

          When do you reckon £10K a week Wyke will break his duck? And more importantly, will he score more than Ross Stewart this season?

          Probably not……….but Callum Lang might

            Still a Wigan player. Read last week that he was stepping up his training programme

              I can still remember that 86/87 run like it was yesterday. We got Darlington away in the 2nd round who had just beaten us 1-0 in the league a week or two earlier. We smashed them 5-0. Gillingham at home in round 3 which was postponed a number of times due to snow. Norwich next who were a top side in Div 1. I’m sure Steve Bruce played that day. Div 2 Hull were thrashed 3-0 in Round 5 before that Leeds game in the last 8. Was a horrible windy Sunday were Tunksy was beaten twice from long range. Great days

                “A lot of fans were asking for a new manager”? Where have you heard or read this? 🤷‍♂️ I haven’t heard that in any of the circles I mix in.

                These players weren’t wanted by other clubs because they couldn’t get a tune out of them. Richardson has them giving their all for a club in dire circumstances even though they are unlikely to be here next season. I think that in itself speaks volumes

                  Seems like he’s got the job based on the last four games and sticking with us, no room for sentiment in this game, if these new owners are serious and want us back in the Championship inside 2 years, is Richardson the man to deliver? :scratch:

                  If we hadn’t at least offered the job to Richardson then our owners would be no better than the owners of the “big 6”. Why shouldn’t sentiment and recent performances count for something. The guy (along with Rioch) has been nothing short of exceptional.

                  It may work….it may not work, but the guy has more than earned the opportunity to have a crack at it. If he can unearth any more Johnston’s, Keane’s or Viv’s then we won’t do too badly

                    Ash has just had a little lad. He decided that he wanted to be at home more and Media manager at a football club doesn’t allow for that.
                    We wish him well as he starts a new part of his career at his next job. He has been part of the furniture at Latics for near on a decade and will be missed.

                    Pleased that he’s making the move on his own accord. Good luck to the fella

                      Told the agent to “do one”, on the bench today :yahoo:

                        I don’t believe there has ever been an issue with commitment. Ability, skill levels and performance on occasions yes, but never have I felt they haven’t tried.

                          Stressful….but stunning. Love the reaction of the whole squad at the end. Kyle Joseph hugging everyone

                            Yes Wigan are paying his wages but these will be negligible compared to the offers on the table.

                            I have no doubt the kid would want to play because he comes across as someone who cares about the club and has been brought up the right way. Unfortunately we are in a football world were agents have too much control and the agent will have his own agenda.

                              Certain to move on next season so doubt he will risk injury scuppering any move. Now linked with Newcastle as well as Celtic. Really hope not but good luck to the kid.
