Ten games left, ten cup finals, ten games in order to right the horrific wrongs of the summer of 2020. Can Latics do it? On the evidence of the last week – most definitely. As disappointing as the penalty shoot out defeat to Sutton was, Leam and the lads followed up in the best way […]
We are Walking4Joseph this coming weekend from Morecambe to Wigan, coinciding with the fixture between the two clubs on Saturday 19th March 2022. We will be walking a tortuous 29.3 miles on the Friday but we will also be up early on the Saturday to complete the trek. This is an open invite to anyone […]
It’s been a while but we are back! The fixtures haven’t fallen too kindly for us this year but we have a plan. A plan to do a walk with a twist. Instead of walking to an away game, this year we are intending to walk to a HOME game. But we will be walking […]
Dear all, As many of you know, I am an ambassador for Joseph’s Goal. For those of you whom don’t know, Joseph Kendrick is a little boy who suffers from a rare life-limiting condition called Non-Ketotic Hyperglycinemia (NKH). He was also the lucky mascot at the 2013 FA Cup Final, which was a memorable day […]
It will come as no surprise that unfortunately we have taken the decision to postpone this year’s walk given the current climate. It is looking increasingly likely that if we walked to Barnsley we would have no match to watch when we got there. It would also be irresponsible to have up to 80 people […]
We played Leeds yesterday, and somehow Wigan Athletic won a football match. Against Leeds. At Elland Road. Again! You may remember last time we played there. It was a memorable day for all kinds of reasons but sixty or so people who took time off work and walked fifty eight excruciating miles over three days, have […]
In which Jimmy, Alan and Ian chat shit for hours (ish) whilst Chris catches 40 winks in his Yorkshire bolthole. As well as catching up with the international week and all things Latics, we finish off our chat with Mark Hayes as he runs through his time as Ashton Town chairman.
Breaking our mould and getting a podcast out that’s both topical and shorter than the length of your average commute! What’s next for The Pie at Night, an episode without recording issues? Nah, that’s too much to ask. Join Jimmy, Alan, Chris and Ian as they catch up on the Charlton game and look ahead […]
How do you put the last couple of weeks in to words? Words won’t really do the events of April any justice. Following the Hull game where Latics were so cruelly robbed of a valuable point on the road Paul Cook’s side were truly looking down the barrel. The turn around from that night has […]
Last Sunday, I drove to Leeds and back and went in loads of pubs. I didn’t even have a drink in any of them, which is something of a miracle for me, I just drove over hill after hill for 58 miles. Next Wednesday marks the start of a mammoth walk from Wigan (well Euxton) […]
