Wigan Athletic 0 v 3 West Ham
28th April 2007
Two to go, the game after the night before, in essence after the heavyweights at noon the big game of the day in the Premiership took place at a raucous JJB stadium filled with this season’s biggest crowd, 24726.
In the week that started with St George a much deserved response to a “true” legend of 1966 and the real action of the day began at a sun kissed stadia on a Subbuteo likened pitch.
You never tire of the moment as you first walk onto the “terrace” and see the green, green grass of home and the splendour of the colours on & off the pitch.
When God invented football he invented heaven and so to kick-off, Latics in the nearly traditional blue & white whilst our counterparts donned their regular colours all was set.
Except Latics hadn’t read the script and watching the debacle unfold was akin to soccer hell not footballing heaven.
The positives from the shambles of a game today from a Wigan Athletic point of view was . . . . .
