Burndens Bogs Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 Theres a Wanderers fan on that Latics Speyk who goes by the username Warren Buffet.He’s continually giving them words of comfort & sympathy. Most of the Wigginers ignore him most of the time. I hope they don’t think all Wanderers fans are as sympathetic towards their heavenly plight.

Disappearing altogether means their fans get off lightly, and can al go back to supporting Liverpool and Everton like they did as kids. Much better if they end up where Bury are then they have to watch them playing Aspull Shitkickers FC for the next million years. No mention of man ure. Interesting.

Tomski, if you’ve ever worked in Wigan you’ll know that Liverpool and Everton are the darling teams of the Wiganese folk. I reckon 30% of firemen at Wigan and Hindley were scousers who managed to escape far enough to no longer be Liverpool City. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The parallels are amazing but now, as the stuff they wished upon us seem to be acting against them, they still don’t get why they’re so disliked by us. https://forums.vitalfootball.co.uk/threads/bolton-interesting.93262/ Cheers for posting this Mickey, so enjoyed reading it. I don't recall us ever doing anything to them to warrant such venom, whereas we have a legitimate excuse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mantra Posted September 17, 2020 Share Posted September 17, 2020 I read a few posts on Latics Speyk a few weeks back and noticed that when they were discussing what they would do if Latics went pop, there was little mention of setting up a phoenix club, sounded like most of their fans would just give up or support another team. Someone even set up a thread called "Does the town deserve a football team?" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ManU just because ManU and City because I get sick of walking around town (Bolton or Bury) or around a shopping malls and where you once saw every other overweight 50+ year old with a ManU top on it seems to have changed to Cideh. I think the only other teams I dislike are Tranmere and Wigan. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Look like they're nowhere near getting a buyer. Mind, I still think they'll find someone considering they just signed a player today, admins must have hope that someone will complete. Considering how Wigan fans were all slagging us off for starting last season in admin and getting "preferential treatment," they're not exactly getting rinsed by the EFL who have accommodated them so far. Could have easily prevented them from starting the season. Funny too how they think we deserve to be in this position because we "lived beyond our means" because of ED's money and Ken not paying people but somehow those same things don't apply to Wigan even though it's the exact same situation but with Dave Whelan and Stanley Choi.

I think it's possible to over analyse. You'd imagine they can't see the double standard as a result of loyalty to the club. However these people are from Wigan. It's very simple. These people are exceptionally thick. Edited September 17, 2020 by paulhanley Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A few years to go before the disturbance in the force is rectified. What we can say already is that they are very wounded even if they survive. No quick return to the Championship will draw them magnetically back to their natural habitats. It's a pleasure to watch it unfold. Along with all the squawking from the pie eaters who thought they had a comfortable period of one upmamship ahead. Every time in their history they've got a step ahead of us it's been over in the blinking of an eye. Mr Choi has made sure it happens again.
