Like to remind people that @wiganathletic won the FA Cup. Author of " I Climbed Kilimanjaro and learnt things". Keen on equality.
#wafc Waching Wigan is a joyless experience these days.

#wafc Who does the publicity ? If it wasn't for the Progress with Unity podcast I'd know very little about what's happening ? Is there an oasis of Latics stories that I'm missing out on ?

With you on most of it.Esp Ant and Dec😀
BBC Director General. I can do that.

Sack Fiona Bruce, bin Strictly, bring back Play for Today and The Magic Roundabout, TV shuts down at midnight, headhunt Ant and Dec and cancel the fuckers.

Was exciting at Lincoln but since then little to shout about away- or at home 🤨

Great interview with John Lloyd. "I never wanted power over other people, I just didn't want them to have power over me." Perfect 👏 @mrjamesob.bsky.social

My book " In Search of my Alumni'" has just become out of print. Told same story 6 years ago. Could have saved loads of expert time 😀

Saw clip of 1-0 win at Spurs in 2012. Watson scored. "If I hadn't seen such riches I could live wuth being poor"- never more appropriate.

#bbctoday started to cover Chancellor's speech then cut away so two people could discuss what she was saying. Am I going mad ?

And #Emmerdale that's another. Bring back characters like Annie, Mr.Wilkes and Amos Brearley. Too many look like actors.

@corostreetblog.bsky.social watching at my 90 year old mum's. Was way better when characters looked like real people and not actors. Bring back Stan & Hilda, Ena, Jack &Annie and Alf.

So hope Shaun Maloney does well as caretaker manager at Celtic. Having O'Neil with him will be a big help #wafc

Fifty-nine years ago today 116 children went to class never to return to their families after a coal spoil tip collapsed and engulfed the school. The tragedy also claimed the lives of 28 adults.

One of the darkest days in Wales’ history. Never forgotten.

Life tip. If you've got toothache don't drive from Nottingham to watch #wafc. Bad combo.

Clearly not 😀
Was asked yesterday why Cook left so quickly after Admin announcement and LR stayed on. No good answer. Anyone else got one ? #wafc

Who made the decision to fund a Wayne Rooney podcast ? Listened to an episode today. Painful #bbcsport

#wafc Dare I say that Lowe was outsmarted by his former apprentice. Might have been smart to start with 4 at back today.

#wafc played well. Looks promising. Play-offs ?
September 13, 2025 at 4:19 PM
#wafc look decent. Wonder what happened to restrictions Shaun operated under. Very few academy players and loanees who hadn't played senior football. And strikers now. He didn't have it easy.

A standing ovation for someone found guilty of tweeting about burning migrants alive. She was sentenced to 31 months for inciting racial hatred. The judge said “You intended to incite serious violence. What you did encouraged activity which threatened or endangered life.” Who’s calling this out?
The Reform UK conference gives a standing ovation to "special guest" Lucy Connolly, who pled guilty to stirring up racial hatred after she called for asylum hotels to be set on fire with people inside them.
