Any suggestions as what slogan I can put on? Initial thoughts include 'Boston and 8 in a row' 'More than a club' 'We are THE club' or just plain 'Billy'

Quote: Cruncher "]

So it's all about revenue?

Typical young football fan who's come of age in the money-obsessed last decade of English soccer, the greed and immorality of which will probably see the top four clubs detaching and joining a European Premier League in the not-so-distant future, with the likes of Latics playing what is, in effect, Second Division football again.

Do they have any concept of tradition, loyalty, spirit, culture, identity?

Not on this evidence. What a bunch of shallow chimps.'"


I just want one of those 5 quid tickets!

When Maurice sold me to Leeds something changed, it just not the same, the passion inside me just wasn’t the same as running out at Central park for my hometown club. We need a change of culture here; we don’t want to be just happy with playing ok on Saturday at St Helens. Ill make sure that from now on things will change, that players will be under pressure and will train a lot harder than they have before.

£5 a ticket!! That'll be five quid more than the 2k freebies that are given out every tics home game. Sorry Andy couldn't resist.

It's the football manager breed of supporter who clearly have no idea about football or it's "working class" roots. What really does amuse me is that a large proprotion of the shallow w@nkers who support Wigan Ath (this does not include those who followed the club for years in the lower reaches and who also watch both Wigan Ath & Wigan RL) don't realise that without Whelan they would still be in the lower divisions at Springfield Park playing in front of 3-4k. They don't actually realise that Wigan RL would still be the number 1 team in the town with or without Whelan.
