| Quote: Milly "I have family that live in London. When they come to visit us they are amazed at the amount of green space we have. Longford is nowhere near as deprived as some places in London, so if he was brought up in the slums of the city Longford would look lovely in comparison. Everywhere has a drug problem just some areas hide it better. If he was really shocked at how poor the area looked they must have concentrated on about 2 streets! ![]()
Agreed, I mean take a look at the area round Wembley, it was like Beirut!

only the Neasden side, Wembley is fairly upmarket compared to places like Harlesden, Hackney and Tottenham |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

It amazing what the right camera shot can do to make an area look worse or better than it is. |

Sometimes I wonder
"Why is that frisbee getting bigger and bigger?"

that opening shot that you could just see the stadium supports in was a right choice, turn that camera round and you could see midland way, the new bus station and new car park.
Not exactly the sydney harbour bridge but broken windows and some of the fooking oldest looking buildings in the town centre. |

IMO there was very little showing the place in a bad light, compared to the recent one they had filmed round Anfield for example.
The overall feeling conveyed was of Warringtonians as warm hearted people, especially the feller running Long Lane Garden centre a story which brought a tear to my eye.

The camera panning as he walked past the boarded up old baths was a superb shot to sell that kind of programme.
