At the Willows?! That's disgusting?!

Friday night matches

Happiest memories are going to a packed Willows as a young lad, watching the game then with about 70 mins gone, we'd be hoping the play was down at the clubhouse end (no matter wheather that was our try line or the oppositions) so the players were close to us at the final hooter, then legging it onto the pitch to get the players tie-ups (a strip of bandage that they used to hold their socks up). Oh the joy the day I got David Watkns tie-up!!!

Also the day we ended Wigan's long run in the Challenge cup.



The saddest memory was the day the game was abandoned at half time because of the sad news that Leeds player Sanderson (I've forgotten his 1st name) had died after swallowing his tongue. I was stood next to the tunnel on the opposite side to the shed (when there used to be terracing, where the club shop is now inside the ground), and I wached a very pale faced young man being carried off on a stretcher. God rest him.

It was Chris Sanderson who died during the that match.

offiah picking the ball up near the try line, spinning round and ripping brian carney against Hull in the early 00s to secure the win.



poetry in motion

Said it before but it is still my happiest memory when Richard Webster nearly killed Jason Critchley with the best dirty tackle in memory.

Almost everything Watkins did

The Neil Baker moment of genius

The second Scott Naylor try

The look on the faces of circa 7k Wigan supporters

The class act that was Peter Williams

The atmosphere on Friday nights many moons ago

Watching Paul Shaw's debut. Magic.

Practicing moves with Craig Coleman on a cool Thursday night.

Watching the shed pelt a Yorkshire TV Cameraman with pennies after he tried to elbow my younger Brother in the face...



...To be fair, my Dad had him by the throat in the Players tunnel at the time.









I'll let him explain that one...

Ban him we dont want that sort of behaviour at the Willows!

Iain Watson Dancing over against wakefield to tie the scores 22 all, gave us a glimmer of hope of staying up at the time, what a goon tho i must have bounced and danced 20 yards from the top of the shed to the bottom right hand corner near the benches hugging and high 5ing complete strangers on the way.



Watching the shed errupting as Alker scuttled between the post against saints from my commentary box was also very good.

Watching Offiah out run Carney from the Northstand

Watching the Blakeley step dance though many a defence at home

Bobbie Goulding fighting with a wakefield player right infront of the shed after being pulled back from a interception , we lost the match but that game had everything

Spending hours in the club shop talking to chris (?) talking rugby Watching the players train every saturday morning for years and on a thursday afternoon (i think) when i had a free period at college.



Both the wigan wins

and finally............whenever the shed finds its voice, i mean a proper roar or a chant or a song doesnt happen very often mind with all the different groups in there, personally i think the sheds been rocking a bit in some games this season somthing to take forward to next season i think.

Not necessarily my favourite memory, nor the most significant, but I always remember Paul Southern's break and chip-kick for Pinkney to score.



Can't remember who we were playing against but I'm pretty sure it was on TV ... remember watching it back and hearing Stevo raving about what a great kick it was for a prop?!

Warrington?

one of the funniest moments was the shed's stand up sit down song for at least 20/30 mins last game of the season against warrington in 2007
