I recall Graham Kavanagh (yes, the same) once scoring an absolute cracker at the Shevvy end for Stoke. He ran and ran with the ball, before firing a rocket as straight as an arrow right into the top corner. Think it was about 1998.
The game when we were 2-0 up and a certain Greg Strong scored a late winner for Stoke?
When it all started going wrong for whatever reason he was arguably one of the worst players in the team.I think he’d already spat the dummy by then.
I thought the GB game on Thursday was pretty boring but I’ll still be treasuring my Olympic ticket stub as its the only event I’ll see in my lifetime.
You’re flogging a dead horse, Eggy. I’d leave it if I were you, it’s fast becoming the most boring topic of conversation in Wigan.Tell me about it.
Don’t get me wrong I dislike rugby league because I find it has become boring to watch.Agree to an extent
The crowd was 13975. I presume that Cas failed to bring more than 1k so lets call it 13000 home fans.
The crowd for Latics v Man Utd (arguably the biggest sporting name in the World) was 18115. That leaves approx 13115 home fans which is also presuming that everyone in the Wigan ends were actually Wigan fans and not Utd fans who had managed to get tickets such as the two young lads sat next to me.
I’ve said it 18115 times and will say it another 13975. Both teams average around the same number of home supporters. If teams like Wakefield, Castleford, London, Catalans, Salford etc brought the same size followings as teams like Villa, Spurs, Arsenal, Man Utd, Everton, Liverpool, Blackburn, City etc etc then I bet the average crowds wouldn’t be too different.
