Why, is she an English language teacher?

I think John Monie stated something like, there are "residents" near Wigan who have never been to London, or left their home village

When they wave off their team Ive heard they have got a Gracie Fields tribute singer singing all her songs "Wish me luck as you wave me away" "Sally pride of our alley"

Is your profile photo also your passport picture ?

Don't judge us by your own standards ... Some of us have moved beyond the likes of Paul Masson, Hirondelle, Black Tower and Slalom Lager

In mitigation, there are plenty of residents of old London town who's definition of the North, starts at Watford ....

I know you loiners are too hip for the challenge cup and means so much more to us Wiganers....really.

We are a club of great history and tradition, and some fans are proud of that. If our fans like to wish the players luck and wave the team off what's that to you? Our traditions seemed to have served us well in the past!

Now back away from your sheep, take a look around and you may realise the world don't revolve around Leeds.

I think we'll need a bigger boat.

Its like mothers waving their kids off when they go away for a school trip and the kids have their heads in their hands feeling embarrassed and not wanting to come home.
