Longy's book is great fun. Should be made into a Carry On film.
Andrew Johns' is the best informative read.
Keith Senior is bringing one out soon.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery.......
I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself.
Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king"

| Quote: Bilko "Bit off topic but along the lines of - They opened a new public library near me in Kitt Green last Easter, in the new Abraham Guest School, and I've had Rads, Sean Long's, Martin Offiah's autobiographies and a rather old book about Billy Boston out of there in the ensuing months already. As well as some football autobiographies from proper old footballers like Tommy Smith and Jimmy Greaves (I'm not even that old but still a good read on my dads advice). The Boston book was so old it was refering to "coloureds" - a long since dated term of description.
Well worth a trip if your local to. I was never a big reader but now I've a library close by I'm up there often.'"
I've just borrowed the rads book from the new abraham guest library,was wondering why the photograph section of the book was all stuck together. |

Especially when he says "Wigan is a Rugby Town."

Local boy?
Born in Bradford, raised in Blackburn.
Of the many things he is, "a local boy" is one thing he isn't. |

So lets see if I have this right, big Dave's spends his first couple of days of life in Bradford so that makes him a Yorkshireman? So every Wiganer born in Billenge hospital is a scouser!...............If a child is born mid Atlantic at 36,000ft will that make him a spaceman?
