This is the worst result since he came to the club they are a TOTAL and UTTER DISGRACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!11
If teams like Swansea and Norwich come up after buying third division players like Pilkington etc and make a fist of the prem then they must have done.
Loads of cr@p teams in my view and lets keep the faith because i dont thing the fight is over for us just yet!whether he is a wind up man or not the “wigan is a rugby town” cr@p need s ramming home to all and sundry including the RL clowns because it is complete and utter nonsense.
Safc you say Wigan is known as a rugby town-my question is why????????
This drivel is trotted out time and time again as if our poor gates are attributed to the fact that we have a RL club that last attracted big gates in the 1950s and when Latics played in the lower reaches of the non league.
It s like knocking nails into a thick piece of wood so here goes the factsWE LIVE IN THE ENGISH HOTBED OF FOOTBALL AND WE ARE DELUGED BY RIVAL CLUBS WITH BIGGER FANBASES AND HISTORY-6 RIVAL EPL WITHIN 20 MILES(NOT ONE) RADIUS.SUNDERLAND AND NEWCASTLE A HOTBED NEVER IN A MILLION YEARS DESPITE THE MEDIA INDUCED MYTH!
SOME OF OUR TOWNMATES SUPPORT THESE OTHER CLUBS BECAUSE WIGAN IS A VERY COSMOPOLIITAN TOWN WITH PLENTY OF LINKS AND HISTORY WITH LIVERPOOL AND MANCHESTER HENCE WHY THE FOUR CLUBS THERE HAVE BIG SUPPORT IN WIGAN ALWAYS HAVE DONE FOR MANY DECADES!
THE RUGBY LEAGUE HEYDAY HAS PASSED BY ABOUT 25 YEARS DUE TO THE COSMOPOLITAN NATURE OF OUR TOWN AND THE FACT WE ARE BIGGER NATIONALLY AND GLOBALLY
GO INTO ANY PUB IN WIGAN AND THE TALK IS OF FOOTBALL NOT RUGBY LEAGUE-THE TOWN PACKS UP WHEN ENGLAND ARE IN MAJOR TOURNAMENTS-DIDNT SEE THAT AT THE RECENT RL WORLD CUP SURELY THAT WOULD BE THE CASE IN A ‘RUGBY TOWN’ AS YOU PUT IT THAT ALL PUBS AND CLUBS WOULD BE PACKED DURING ‘MAJOR’ RL TOURNIES?
lets hope the above enlightens you a bit but until people start looking at the above factors and realising that ‘rugby town’ doesnt exist and hasnt done for ABOUT 2 decades then we have an almighty battle.
PS READY FOR THE NEXT NAIL!
SAFC you are talking utter cr@p saying Wigan is a rugby town!
Do your homework rather than listening to west ham goons on talksport.
We are in the PL on merit and have been since 2005 thats the point mate!!!
Unlike Blunderland we are in THE football hotbed(6 rival EPL clubs within a 20 mile radius) not a false media created one like the one you have in the north east-2 clubs you both should be gettin 90000 a game shouldnt you?I take it your a fan of that truly worlwide sport(pmsl!)that will soon be absorbed by the much bigger and richer Rugby Union. :woohoo:
4-1 with a cr@p ref behind them and a wind that would blow a ten ton truck anywhere!
Luckiest bunch of b@@@@@Ds i have ever seen-bottom half finish at best for them!Brilliant haul against all the odds however lets not lose sight that this is probably our lowest ever points total at this stage since we joined the premier league so its a must win tonight.
I still think Swansea(new Blackpool maybe?) and Norwich will hit the skids at some point and i will be very surprised if they both sail past the 40 point mark with ease.Good post goodpost goodpost
However perhaps a few of the fairweather b@@@ards(jumped on bandwagon circa 2005) that sit and watch our home games in the pub rather than come to the ground should also read your post and hang their heads in shame eh?The club should have a took a stab on the lower divisions ages ago.
Jordan Rhodes at Huddersfield,Ricky Lambert at Southampton have both been banging the goals in but nobody at this level seems that interested in either of them.
Give me a young hungry skilful lad from the lower divisions anyday than some prima donna from overseas.There are tons of Utd ‘fans’ all over Wigan and i have rarely met any that EVER go to live matches never mind the odd game!
Hingley is also home to stacks of Wigan RL dont forget so i would assume a few of them were present also as they love all things Latics dont they??????????
Never classed Hindley as part of Wigan anyway -a town on its own like Ashton!Very sad news indeed i remember the Everton game and his picture of innocence after he had clattered latchford.His interview afterwards was pure class also and Latics easily took 20,000 to goodison (it was their biggest gate of the season other than the derby match 52000 i think).
A good player who served the club well and gave some good performances.
I hope they have a minutes applause for him at the Sunderland game next tuesday!
rest in peaceWhelan has acheived the impossible keeping the club up on a shoestring budget-his silence is applauded :clap: :clap:
I agree completely that the standard has increased this season to such an extent that a relegation contender(Boringham City) has won a major trophy!
Latics cant compete and lets be honest who thought the club would last six seasons in the Prem.
Its not the end of the world we will still have a club to support next season and hopefully all the fans will return to support the club in the lower division.
Think of it possible trips to Leeds,Burnley and Boro instead of Dulham(mega yawn surely the most boring football club in history-b a stad watertreaders),Boringham and Stokick city.
Who gives a @@@@!!!!!!
