Sports Section

Well i've been on Wigan World one week now and this Sports section is not for me. I thought it would have been about Wigan R.L. or Latics not Manchester United and eggbeater all the time so I think I'll stick to General and the other sites in future. It's nothing but a slanging match all the time on this site. Very disappointed. Bye.

You only have eggy to blame for that, every thread is ruined by him.

None so blind etc. Lots as bad as Eggbeater on here.

thank you broady no doubt you'll get stick for being honest.

you only need to look down this section & who puts on derogotory blogs to draw a comment from people .

All i can say to you Peyeta, is to give it another go , for i had similar views as you have had a few years back , but thought hey i'm not going to let someone else stop my bit of pleasure , and you refer to Wigan Warrior's well guess what? my first love was Wigan Rugby my late father introduced it to me back in the early 1950s just after Wigan had signed for me the best winger in the game , one WILLIAM JOHN BOSTON my hero , plus i think what helped me was my cousin's both played for Wigan ,ie Bill Bretherton & Ronnie Mather they would come round to ours with all sorts of tale's and stories so i was bred on Rugby , Then around the Munich Crash again my dad and big brother took me to Old Trafford on a European Wednesday match , from then i was hooked on them ,never froget seeing the like of Dennis Law/ D,VIolett /R.ByrneT.Taylor and obviously you know all the other's , so my tip is give it another try . If you don't been nice to talk . G.B.

GB I remember Ronnie Mather when he was at Old BostonHaydock
Around 1980?

Thats my cousin RONNIE he had a brother BRIAN , he later went to WARRINGTON they thought a hell of a lot him there , Sadly quite a few years ago went to Bill y Bretherton's funeral at UPHOLLAND CHURCH he was a what i call A RUM BUGGER , G.B.

when i was doin my training at old boston ronnie mather asked me if i wanted a trial at wigan . but football was my main interest.

WOW Whup's you kept that under your hat mate, Did you know him really well ? Also Whups did you ever know a WALTER MATHER ? FRED MATHER? would love to know if you did . G.B.

He's come across a Walter Mitty on here

Golden bear Ronnie was a nice bloke he probably helped hundreds of lads starting their working life at old Boston nothing but nice memories of him

Thank you very much for those kind comments Handsomeminer i would look forward to him coming and take me to Southport Open Air Baths great bloke ,G.B.

The dominance of the sports section by the same handful of United supporters and the bickering by them, especially Whups with eggbeater is exactly the reason why supporters of the Wigan clubs do not post and discuss matters like they should be doing.

Time that those who run the website did something about it, especially when there are suspicions that one or more are just armchair supporters!

owd codger to many boring man u posts, you are so right
i personally would ban any talk of that non manc club boring as their supporters

still living in your head i see chatty you cannot go a week without trying to mention me in some way

There you go again, if every post I make you think I am referring to you I'm I not living in your head?

Then again if the cap fits

wrong again todger . you,ll find that eggbeater under various guises like kellys dad , laughing gravy , neverstill , sergio 123 ETC has put far far more comments on here that me , in fact i,d go further & say he was putting comments on here even before i joined .

See what I mean This is not a Wigan Sports Section Its a very childish Manchester United for or against section PATHETIC

Correct Pie eater If you don't support Man U this site is not for for you Take Care see you on General.

This is aimed at you PYEYTA, i would like to inquire are you interested in GOLF? If so have you been watching the " THE PLAYERS" COMP from Florida , there have been some good golf played and in particular the famous 17th hole it's a real frightner a par 3 over water and the green sit's there like a postage stamp , and since Thursday there have been 11 Aces at or Hole -in-Ones , alas our Rory McILROY had a very bad first round , he shot a 76 which is 4 over Par. at SAWGRASS he is in fact 12 shots of the leader . So if your into golf or not what other sports do you like ??? I have in the past talked a bit about the game that i once loved to play alas due to me health i can't do it now and truly miss playing ,as iv'e said to you before take heart and don't be put off ,take care . G.B.

I went to school with a lad called Fred Mather, GB. He lived in Ashton. Same age as me, so will be 65 now.

Tonker it was not him but thanks anyway .G.B.

There is a section on here for 'squabbling' it is the 'Handbags' section, where folk can have hissy fits, and hit each other with their handbags

there,s only 1 guy who starts it . just look down this section & count the blogs started by him just to get a response ? .

Anybody watch Liverpool game at dinner, got away with murder, what the ref or var come up with is rubbish, blatant foul let go then a penalty appeal not given,
Sheer garbage.

nobody forces you to respond moron

And nobody forces you to ruin thread after thread, wigan world would be a much better place without the village idiot.

Its beyond me how they got away with it T C .
And dont get me started at the antics of some dippers who were diving all over the place .
Watched the first half of the berties game at C P ,
Just the same .
That Grealish eh.
Anyone goes to tackle him he falls over.

[Anyone who supports a side with the softest whinging whining diving arm waving cheat playing for them... Should keep his gob shut

Oh dear .
Who rattled your cage then softcock.
Speaking of gob .
A tennis ball would fit in yours and still leave plenty of room to rattle .

Grimshaw Rashfords dive took some beating today he looked like Black Superman

Well done grimshaw for acknowledging that you support a side with the softest whinger whiner and biggest arm waving cheat playing for them

and i suppose salla,s dives in the past doesnt register with you then peter g ? . i mean when you have to do a weather report to see which way the wind,s blowing is ridiculous , isnt it .

Bournemouth are still looking for the ball from Salahs penalty yesterday

I will always support my side ,arm wavers , whiners or what ,so up yours knobwobbler .

allways support your side HAHAHAHAHA why do you never go then?

who do you support ? . a bit rich coming from someone who wont show his true colours , but then again maybe you have .

Oh dear... So answer me this grimshaw, have you ever played football at any level? And if you did and you were playing with a whining moaning arm waving diving cheat... Would you applaud his antics? And if you are trying to insult me please try and do better than softcock or knobwobbler, or better still just GROW UP!

Oh dear Oh dear .Best if you grow up.
Especially if your insulted by my words .
Another A B U saddo .
And yes i played footie
Next question .

Can i assume i will now be off your Christmas card list .?

Grimshaw When you played football were you not discovered by Owd Codger or play against his team

I am as yet undiscovered .
To the best of my knowledge i have never met The Dodger .
I would guess that i havnt given his involvement with players at a professional level......Allegedly ..

grimy playing football i thowt he had both legs blown off in the trenches!

just like your brain being blown out . as well as that flat you had .

grimshaw

learn to read and digest properly, i said if you were trying to insult me, i never said i was insulted did i? and yes i played footie? LOL And you still never answered my question. And so according to you anyone who doesn't support United is a saddo. My my why do you still act like a ten year old? P.S Wanna buy a medal or two to make you look good?

Wanna .10 Year old talk .
LEARN to speak .

You have the odd medal eh.
So .
Your question is so inane it isnt worth a response .
So i will not be having a christmas card from you then eh.?

I was actually referring to you maybe wanting to purchase a military medal or two And it's football... Although some ten year olds might say footie. but most who played the game would say footy And seeing as you like to be pedantic i will join in, it's you're not your. LEARN TO SPEAK!

maybe you shud change your name to ahshuddentspeyk ? .

Whups ..
