Burnley VS Wigan Athletic




Tomorow is Burnley VS Wigan Athletic,3pm.Turf Moor.

Im going to start off with a feature that I included in the last preview: Head to Head

League: Burnley 2 Draws 7 Wigan 7

League Cup: Burnley 0 Draws 0 Wigan: 2

Other: Burnley 0 Draws 0 Wigan 1

Total: 2 Draws 0 Wigan 10

As you can see, Wigan have come better off in Previous encountes. But as always Wigan could make a hash of it and Burnley could come away with 3 points...Wigan may have ot make a team change with Sharner and Kirkland not at full strength since Kirkland sufferd a dislocated finger against Manchester City ( Which will include a review) and also Sharner is suffering from a hip problem, so a couple of problems for first team players but I hope that Latics can come away with 3 points, as it stands Burnley is 10th and Latics are 14th hopefully 3 points can send us on our way!
Whoever is going tomorow enjoy the game!

Wigan Athletic vs Manchester City


I shall be going to the match today, not been for around a month so thought I would do a preview of the "big match" today:

So for our team today we shall see Won Chee Ho fly back after playing on International dutey so I presume he will not be playing today, the only worrying thing for us is that Eric Edman picked up concusion playing for the reserves so I hope he can play today...apart from that i assume the normal squad will be up today.

Head to head:

League - Wigan wins 5 draws 2 City Wins 3

Fa Cup - Wigan 0 Draws 0 FA cup - City 2

other - Wigan 0 draws 1 City 1

Total Wigan 6 draws 4 city wins 7


I think wigan will either just scrap a win or it will be a draw, Come on Wigan!

Smokey Back rooms and real bitter.

The british establishment that is a pub is not what it used to be. When working class lads walk past it then dont " smell" sucsess and look forward to the coming of age where they can go into the hallowed pub and have there first legal pint. Now all you get is fucking posh nosh, pubs that dont even smell of pubs! My earliest memory is where my nana and grandad live, It was at Bentham Golf Club, There where the regulars smoking pipes and cigarettes with there flat caps and pints of mild. That is a memory that has always stuck with me.
Kids today wont get that( some people may think so what?)....But its just a nice memory that im sure wont be seen again.
The Smoking ban is killing the pub trade and I hope that the goverment can relax laws and just let the tap room/snug be somewhere where you can smoke.
The great british pub will return to what it once was.

Planned purchase

As some of you may or not know, im into my clothes. So when payday comes I have planned a few purchases.

Clarks Nature shoes.

I am planning on getting these from oipolloi at at the price of 75 pounds i was giving htem a second thought because i personaly would not pay that for a pair of shoes, but on a second glance they do look quality and also would look very smart. here is a link to the oipolloi site and the shoes that I plan on getting from them.

Next up, a shirt from a brand that i recently found out called TukTuk of a forum that i regualy frequent and having a look at there site i have to say they do look quality.
They other options for your shirt and i have opted for a 3 inch collar, a breast pocket and long sleves and also a bit of length since im not on the thin side.

here is a link to there site, check them out.

Going to put more effort into this blogging marlarky



Going to try and start this blog up again and get my thoughts down on football,clothes,real ale and whatever I think may be intresting reading ( assuming that peoople read this blog...). Should be doing a good few posts a week maybe more anyway thanks to anyone who reads this and there will be a few more posts within the next few days!

Social Class?

In todays society do we have " social class?" Is it still in todays society but more subdued and also not as easy to class?. Me, im working class due to my family work hard for there money and have just a bit of money left over for some fun.
But does it really matter if your Working Class,Middle Class,Upper Class? as long as you arnt stuck up your arse and dont look down on people i presume it really just doesnt matter anymore but in years gone by it did, for instance the mining strikes etc.. so to some up this short and trying to be creative within my writing post I think class is still around but maybe it just isnt important anymore?

How sh*t is fooball?

Todays football is stale,shit and ofcourse overpriced. Burnley are charging 32 quid for a adult ticket for our away game to there place...32 quid for Burnley.fuck me.
I will only be going if they have a student ticket or if i can get away with a kids one mind.
Also todays players are fucking premadona twats diving if someone goes within a foot of them...oh and are grossley overpaid for what they do ( to kick a ball for 90 mins.)
In yesteryear players got muddy and actually got stuck in and actually cared for the club they played for, for istance my old man was telling me about Hary Lyon who broke his leg in a FA cup game at Springfield Park he got it fixed up, came back on and scored a hatrick. Name me one player in todays game who would do that.
Next up is the Premiership this league is fucking wank and the novitaly effect is just about wearing off ( even though i will still go...since its my club im watching.) You know who is going to be in the top 4/6 and who may be mid table so theres fuck all to play for, I cant wait for the days of lower league football to come back to us and get the bandjumping tossers away from my club.
Yeah football is shit and im still going ( work that one out).
