Paolo's favourite word: ovviously

Close to technically

Ossie Ardiles likes it too....well more like ovvially.

Can you remember the Wigan away match in the playoffs when we were 2-0 down.....and won it 3-2,think the home match was 0-0.

That old ground of theres was grim.

Yep,  The grass bank with a cow shed on top.

I remember some of our lot ripping up clumps of grass & dirt from the bank, throwing it in the air & singing the celery song.

If I remember rightly when it was 2-0, Digby made a really good save after one of theirs intercepted a backpass. I'm not sure we would have come back so well from 3-0 down

Yep Quinn was good that night.

Local Coppers told me that night we were the worst away fans they had ever had there - I had to laugh at that !!!

If my memory serves me right, didn't our fans do the conga on the old bank that night.

Presume Suggs is starting the match day thread?

Surely that would be Madness?

Bamber was best though!
I liked the cowshed, it was funny seeing the police on horseback trying to shuffle us around.

Seems a lifetime ago...

Didn't go to the play off game for some reason but did go to the regular season game for the 3-2 defeat. I think Tim Flowers was on loan to us at the time and was badly at fault for one of the goals. I think Paul Jewell was probably playing for them as well.

Springfield Park was a shit hole - FACT!

I got hit by a large "chunk" of celary. Bloody hurt :)

......Never sung "We do what we want" though :)

Mind you as the threads stated - Celary, Clumps of mud and bloody horses......as well as Peter Coyne as his mullet.
