Needs to play for North Korea to do that Dave.

My Score Prediction is 1-1. We should have a prediction league or summat.

Really? Didn't look like it could be breathtaking in the reviews and trailers, but I fancy going.

If Bolton bring the full 8K, that means we only have to sell 22K for a sell out-surely we can manage that at £15 a go.

Maybe making him skipper means we can ask a bit extra for him in the January Sales?

IT's a teaser campaign for his forthcoming match preview thread. Brilliant Jim.

The undercutting of the season ticket on the Bolton game, and any frustration that may cause, must surely be offset by A-Good chance of big crowd,and a more enjoyable afternoons atmosphere B-Judging by the interest in the two away games in Europe, the season ticket holders will have the best chance of actually getting a ticket for Rotterdam or Krakow.

Norwich? Isn't that where Bolton play?

I never check!

Happens every year Paul, comes as no surprise. It is still far cheaper for me to by a ST, as I go to every home match. As long as you expect the odd game like this when you commit to a ST, then no problem.

How long does it take to re-new an expired passport?

At one point today, Kirkland made to take a goal kick, stopped and turned round and told the drummer to to wait before trying to put him off.

We did hammer them in the 2nd half. The only irony was that the winning goal came from such a crappy bit of play. We had chance after chance, with several one on ones spurned. Wigan were not without their chances, notably three goes from the penalty but it would have harsh should Rovers lost this game.

Benni loving his Euro adventure. Rovers co uk I liked this bit "I've been stunned by the way fans are very fanatic here and they just get behind you, and I think that is why they get the performance out of myself and my team-mates because they are just 100% true fans and I think that is great for the game."

Phhh! They're all ghost written anyway. Jim Mk2 is the real comedy mastermind behind these mostly amusing rants.

And we are overdue another penalty against us by now...

By the way, for the predicition league , which I reckon I should be at the top of, the match will end Rovers2 Wigan 0

Great preview as always Den. Particulary liked the bit "the post match chat on this thread". Bob Fleming will be a worried man tonight . All this pre match chit chat about the Wigan match, yet no mention of the pies. Won't anyone mention the pies? I mean it's Wigan FFS. I worked in Wigan in the late 80s, Wildings camera shop on Mesnes Street. Around half ten every day, the cellar lad (Baldrick-it captured the Zeitgeist) used to come round the building with a pen and pad taking the mid-morning pie orders. It boiled down to coded references after a while, EG-a PB was a Pasty Barmcake, a BP was a butter pie and a CPR was a butter pie barm. I kid you not. Ask a Wiganer about pies and they become very tribal. Each individual has their own allegiances, Greenhalghes, Sayers, Hampsons, Pooleses etc. If you offered a Hampsons man a Pooleses he would consider it the ultimate insult-and may challenge your to a fight . What time is it when there is a pie on the town hall clock in Wigan?

So that's the Bolton at home game moved back to the Sunday now? And the Fulham game too? First home saturday 3PM kick off now looks like being Newcastle on December 9th!

Was it Parma or Palermo Philip?

Jim, the manager who ran the Watersedge (Sams) was asked to,erm, leave for various reasons. Karen is now in charge, and is a very experienced bar manager. Things can only get better!

To be honest, I'm shatting myself and it's only half one.

I remember it well! Sat in the Lower Darwen End, the end which they went in. I say remember it well, I can't actually remember the precise details. I think there was a left footer, a right footer and a header. Could be an omen that Newell is doing the TV on Eurosport UK tonight. Channel 666.

Chelsea have been allocated the lower Darwen End. I suspect that the whole of the Darwen End will be the away end for good from now on.

What a pile of crap that is.
