How great a feeling is it not to spend every day wondering whether or not your football club will survive? The pain of the last nine months won’t disappear in a hurry but the relief of the last week has been palatable, we’ve got to hold on to this feeling and try to harness that […]
There’s definite signs of life, it’s not perfect by any stretch yet but there’s progress. Despite losing against Lincoln on Saturday Latics provided the best response to the 5-0 drubbing against Hull. A performance that was full of plaudits and a performance were Latics were well worth a point if not at all three. A […]
Where to start? In the strange world of Wigan Athletic this has to be one of the strangest weeks yet. Despite there being no action on the pitch there’s been plenty of drama off it. Honestly where to start? I’ll try in the short space I have but any sort of summary could stretch to […]
We live in truly unprecedented times, it feels like it’s been a constant curve of sheer madness since 2016 but the last few weeks have really ramped that unprecedented feeling up a notch. How does this relate to Latics I hear you ask? Well sadly if the experts are to be believed (remember them? Seems […]
And so, the end is near, and after a tumultous period, things look like they are definitely on the up for Latics. The same, however can’t be said for Blackpool. Whilst we’ve, arguably had an up and down couple of years, their life since relegation is probably best soundtracked by Status Quo. As they go […]
Sixy Talk has had a couple of week’s break, but we didn’t want to let this game pass. Not least because Doncaster are one of those clubs who still have a bone-fide paper fanzine popular STAND. We also think that Rovers’ story has a bit of there “there but for the grace of Harry Lyon…” […]
Aka, “your mid-week narrative”. Things are fairly relentless at the moment, with a twenty game unbeaten run, five wins on the bounce and our closet competitors slipping off the pace, you’d think there’d be plenty to talk about, wouldn’t you? Well, let’s grab a lump of 2×4 (or any other wood you’re comfortable touching) and […]
Here. Who fancies starting off their Saturday with some music? Did I hear someone at the back say “A perfect hat-trick of three songs with tenuous links to today’s game would be nice”? That’s good, because that’s just what we’ve got…
After shambolically failing to find a Peterborough fan to interview last weekend, I’d committed to putting more effort in this week, only to wake up this morning, realising I’d spent most of my week travelling to and from Bristol, getting frustrated at the quality of mobile internet and not bothering to even think about Sixy […]
Welcome to your matchday playlist, the three songs who’s connections to the game are probably so thin that the music will have finished before you work them out, either that or so obvious that you’ll not hear them for banging your head on your computer screen. Left Foot: The Smiths – Cemetery Gates So, Bury […]
