"Wigan Athletic - No known famous fans. The town (of Wigan) apparently goes into hibernation when the Rugby League season ends!" Daily Mail Online feature, July 2009 ------------------------------------------------------------- They will not force us, They will stop degrading us, They will not control us, WE WILL BE VICTORIOUS! ............ Wigan RLFC - The Uprising! ----------------------------------------------------------- Wigan footballer Mohamed Diame described the home of mint balls and pies as 'cr**py'. But Tomkins boomed: "I don't want to know what he thinks. I don't even know his name. He only plays for Latics.":16522.jpg



Quote: Jukesays "www.wiganworld.co.uk/album/photo.php?opt

icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif That’s my mate Glen sporting the ‘fashionable’ 80s tache (long since gone btw). I’m also on that photo and the other 2 of the group.

Quite an emotional trip down memory lane in that a couple of the lads have since died (RIP Jimmy & Paul).

The lad at the front wearing the Cherry & White hat is now a fully paid up member of the Latics’ ‘Hate Wigan Rugby Brigade’. He swears that he only came to Wembley with us in 1984, 1985, 1988, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995 and 1998 for the ale, that he has never supported Wigan Rugby (even though he was as passionate about the club as the rest of us at matches) and that he has never worn anything Cherry & White at a match (clock the hat!).

That’s a different ‘freddie Mercury lookalike’ on the Gilly & Hanley photo btw – we always stood in front of the Sullivan Bar on the Popular Side at Central Park for efficiency reasons! icon_cool.gif icon_lol.gif

I always wanted to do a T-shirt with 'Our Ronnie' on it but I could never find an image.

Have you noticed, all the players have their collars turned up, today, most prefer either no collars or collars sewn down.

I'm certainly no expert on Photoshop, I've only got an old Photoshop Elements, but thought I'd give this a go!

Two versions - the first in the softer light of the original, the second a bit grittier. I've tried to keep the moodiness of the original. Someone can probably do a better job!
