Off somewhere seeing places that make your heart sing.
But always supporting the greatest team in the greatest game - Wigan RLFC.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_52031.jpg |

The Stables Brasserie on Millgate next to the side of the new(ish) Grand Arcade , just off Market Place, is fantastic - great food and very reasonable prices. Couldn't recommend it highly enough.

The Berkley still has good food, a great selection of proper beer plus numerous TV's where showing RL is numero uno.
On that basis, it's a great venue before, after, or instead of, going to the match  |

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "Gallimores is excellent.
I would like to thank you fine gentleman for the advice given,but some of you may be thinking why is a Wigan fan of getting on for 60 years supporting the club asking about places to drink and eat on match day.
I have a confession to make,this Saturdays match will be the first time I have watched Wigan at home since they left Central Park.
I have watched them at Murfield,Wembly and other grounds away( I will quallify the other grounds away statement) I went to the Leigh v Wigan Match in Feb.
I had my reasons for staying away,some travel problems,health problems and political problems within the club.
So thats it confession over,it will be 6.00 pm on Friday in the Goose at Leigh for the Leigh v Leeds Match.
Saturday 11.30 am train for the Wigan vSaints match
Sunday out for lunch for my mothers 101st birthday party.
Should be quite a weekend,maybe I will see some of you on my travels. Cheers.
I know that by now there is proberbly not a dry in the house, but do you think if IL saw this he may come up with a free complementary season ticket for the rest of the season.

A purple patch inspired on his home ground by man of the match WIGAN CAPTAIN Sean O’Loughlin produced three tries in an eight-minute spell just before half-time, and the GB Lions added two more after the break to maintain Smith’s 100 per cent record as Great Britain
coach.

Maybe if you didnt say that last bit it would maybe have happened  but not now 
Enjoy the weekends games and hopefully theres a superstitious eement to the game on sat ie if we lose dont go back/if we win we;l all chip in on these boards and get you a season card.
As for food i think rogues is the best recommendation as i know he knows his food nevermind his rl knowledge... and yeah the crisps in the anvil are 2nd to none 
Many happy returns to your Ma, she's same age now as Edinburgh Warrior and Rogues  |

Captain, That last bit was a bit of a joke and to prove it I will tell you what I will do.
If Wigan win and you all chip in for a ticket for me,the same amount will go in the form of a cheque to Derian House Childrens Hospice. Cheers.

I shall be going in the Goose before the game hoping to see Ian,Salford Lad and I am not certain if it was Roman Warrior or Charlie who was at the table with us in Feb.
I have my ticket in the West Stand which I think as a section of the stand reserved for V.I.Ps(Wigan Supporters).
I will be in about 6. |
