A slightly disappointing 2; reason bring the answer was a word I use periodically as an opening guess, so could have been a 1

Joe was a bloody nuisance, he was always full of mischief and I always likened him to having a naughty kid in the room when he was around.

I don't think he had a bad bone in his body, it truly saddens me that we have lost him. He was genuinely one of the good guys and I will miss him.

God bless you Joe x

Quite a few down tonight. Just the old days. Handsome Jeff was back amongst us and was coaching a relatively new chap. It was good to see. He is an excellent coach, he learnt from the best and is a naturally talented chap.


Thank you for your kind words Pete. It was nice to be back.

Thank you for that. I remember the brouhaha of 1974 very well. People were livid that the bit of ground they lived on had changed it's name. To this day there is dispute over our correct postal address. Some say Greater Manchester and others insist on Lancashire. But as the police, fire and ambulances that respond to 999 calls are all labelled Greater Manchester, the Lancashire mob have their work cut out for them.
Wiganers are known as "Pie eaters" and their return phrase for the people of Leigh is "Lobby gobblers". I have done both :-)


Wiganers appear proud of the “Pie Eaters” label, however, the origin of it is probably unknown to most.

At some point in the past both the Leigh and Wigan Coal Miners went out on strike, eventually the Wigan miners broke the strike and went back to work; and as a result were forced to eat humble pie. This is where the Pie Eaters label came from, so originally a slur rather than a statement of pie eating pride
