Still plenty of Wanderers in Culcheth. I grew up next door to Rogers brother who was also a decent player. Two of his lads still run the haulage business, now based in Newton.
The Bowgie Inn at Crantock in Cornwall ereputed when that one went in. Took us a while to find a pub with it on,and a willing driver. Early kick off if I remember correctly.
The man will be a Wanderers legend forever.
Spot on with the support.we are between Warrington and Leigh and there have always been a lot of Wanderers, since Sky there are more glory hunters of all persuasions but what really pisses me off is the number of recent pie eaters I absolutely hate the cunts. Great following yesterday though, first time I've taken the kids over the border (not a euphemism ) they loved it! The club feeling is definitely coming back the match has been a chore (but not one to be shirked ) over the last few seasons but I'm loving it recently
If you are interested in old football grounds there was a great book a few years back by Simon Ingliss called " Football Grounds of England and Wales " Nice to hear it called a ground rather than stadium too!
Alan Dicks, Fulham, seem to remember their fans calling for his sacking at Burnden with chants of "Dicks Out", which lead to a robust response, particularly from the Manny Road North!
Definitive proof that you should never trust anything written by someone called Jeremy. We should brace ourselves for the press alternating between bigging the team up and slating them between now and next summer.
Talk sport, and particularly those two cunts is contrived (or should that be cuntrived) beyond belief, every day is the same scenario;
Ginger Twat: "Well you daft Yorky stump I think this";
Essex Dwelling Yorkshire Deserter" Naaah then y' great ginger ponce I think t'other"
Repeat to fade.......................
But apart from that, just listening to his Sky interview, where he describes how some of the current dingle squad "got ME to tenth" speaks volumes; the bloke's a tosser, reasonably good at his job, but I've scraped better off the sole of my shoes.
Not keen on him if I'm honest.
