| What a great idea. Often people have spoke about how it would be nice to have some form of physical Hall of Fame or even a small museum. The latter is probably unrealistic but its good that Wigan's heritage is being acknowledged more in the centre of the town's shopping centre.
Hopefully room can be found to acknowledge the whole Hall of Fame and I would also like to see it made more of as a concept. There are certainly a few overdue inductees as well not least the first person on that wall - Andy Farrell.
Its about time he came back to the DW and got inducted along with getting the thanks from the fans of which he never received upon his decision to leave. And Yes he most certainly did deserve it - even if he did go to the other code.

| I had a gander at the Walk of Fame earlier today which was excellent, but the highlight for me was on the opposite wall. There is a timeline of Wigan stretching from roman occupation through to present day, anyway in '95 it points out Wigan winning the last of the 8 consecutive challenge cups and best of all no mention of the tics. The town is ours.

In 1995 we were saved from the brink of death by a certain Mr D Whelan who promised Premier League football within 10 years. He was laughed at. 10 years later Wigan Athletic were promoted to the Premier League.

Now everyone laughs at Latics instead of Whelan...

Beer is proof that God loves us and wants us to be happy.
Fermentation may have been a greater discovery than fire.
Work is the curse of the drinking class

had a little chuckle over "The town is ours" it's always been ours and always will be. But it's nice for that view to be reinforced now and again
