Quote: phil stone "Sam is right, it will be different and i for one am glad and don't take offence. We do still have the railings, we do still have the slope (not for long though) our pitch isn't long but it is wide, we still have terracing at both ends (not for long though) and overall our facilities aren't as good as some of the new SL grounds but that's what helps make post office road what it is.
It has character and your players won't feel too uncomfortable with the facilities on offer and once they're out on the pitch nothing else will matter to them than winning the game.'"
Exactly. The fact that the grounds abit of a 'throwback' is with all due respect an advantage to Fev in games like Friday. It has character and is part of the reason a lot of Wigan fans are made up with the draw.
It brings back memories from childhood and this week feels like a 'proper' cup tie.
