March 11, 20251 yr Swore off going to wiggin after our recent embarrassments, sorely tempted again now.
March 11, 20251 yr I get the impression they are deliberately waiting to appoint a manager so that his first game is against us, to maximise new manager bounce. To hell with all the fixtures in between, as long as they beat us they'll be happy.
March 11, 20251 yr i am tempted to get involved in this just not sure i can be arsed arguing with police as to why i do not wish to get the train back to Bolton.

I show them my driving license clearly saying Liverpool and they still try. Proper weird

When we beat Utd 2-1 in 2001 Police escort from ground to deansgate station As I lived in Manc I had no reason to get a train and despite explaining this they insisted we all went to the platform So we did and left by another way out

Proper weird I cam understand it in a way, as they don't want all and sundry hanging around for obvious reasons. However, when you've got a perfectly legitimate reason, and they still threaten to arrest you, then something is greatly amiss. Surely the potential for a wrongful arrest claim if they went ahead.

I was parked on frog lane near that little tunnel. They wouldn't let us through i showed em driving licence with wigan address basically just laughed. We had to walk to station then escape the crowd and walk all way back through a moody bit of wigan at night. Took us an hr and half to get to car. Il never go again not to be treated like that.

I know I can be a knob but first group of coppers wouldn’t listen and ignored the license address. Why the fuck I would be wanting to go on my own to cause trouble fuck knows. Only when a superior came over was I allowed to go to the right station.

March 13, 20251 yr Aye it’s gotta happen sometime so in as well , although I am the biggest Wiggin Jonah on the planet. My grandson’s first ‘away’ game .
