THE ONE AND ONLY "LATICS" , Ronnie Blair scorer of the goal that wasn't given Oldham Athletic v Man Utd 28th Dec 1975 "Nothing changes":41238.gif



What sad news, I have known Keith for many years, he worked with my wife's uncle Denis Wright club physio for many years, also we met with football Latics v Latics a few years ago.
A true gentleman, one of the unsung hero's behind the scenes, he will be sadly missed in the rugby league community.

Did he used to bring the kicking tee on after tries were scored?

Games as big as Grand Finals define individuals and clubs. Remember, we only rent these journeys. In my time I had Pat Richard's shirt. Ellery Hanley had Sean O'Loughlin's jersey. Sam Tomkins is wearing Radders' number one jersey. Andy Coley is wearing Shaun Wayne's jersey. You have to make a mark in these shirts before you hand it down to someone else. Hand it back. So be aware for 80 minutes that you are not only playing, but you are also writing history and creating legacy. How many people actually write history - not many? A big stage demands big players…..INSPIRE YOUR TEAM MATES. Martin Offiah MBE, pre-Grand Final Speech, 2nd October 2010.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_33718.jpg



RIP Keith, a true Wigan legend. God bless.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



Kris Radlinski summed up how much Keith meant to the Wigan club when in the dressing room after the last game at Central Park he presented Keith with the match ball. The player wanted him to have it.

R.I.P. Keith

"I read somewhere that Leeds-Bradford is an airport, Wigan-St Helens is a rivalry. I can't wait to play my first game against them.":d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_41627.jpg



RIP KEITH

Maybe for the fans going to Hull could fall silent when the players run out as its going to be over 2 weeks before our next home game as a amark of respect.

RIP Keith. My favourite memory of keith was at the jjb after radz scored in the last second against bradford. We were one point behind with faz still to kick the goal. Keith was waving his arms about at the fans trying to shut us up so faz could concentrate. An absolute legend of the Wigan club. I know the term legend gets branded about loads but there is no other word to describe Keith for his work on and off the pitch.

I agree entirely. Legend is an overused term, often for a player who has a few good games in a relatively short career. Guys like Keith who have served the Club for most of their life, deserve the tag of legend.
Rather than a minutes silence, which can so easily be ruined by an ill behaved idiot, he deserves a minutes round of applause as an appreciation (to celebrate his life, more than mourn his passing)

RIP Keith.

A committed servant of the club for many years and in a variety of different roles. I too hope he is remembered in a special way by the club.

As the title says a true club legend. So sorry to hear this. Didn't know him personally but felt like he did he's been around so long. Condolences to friends and family.

RIP Keith

People like Keith are rare indeed. Always helpful, friendly and amiable and willing to put his hand to anything to help the club. A true gent and great servant to Wigan who will be sadly missed. RIP Keith.
