True story. I was talking to a wigan fan after the Leigh v Wigan game and he said he wasnt impressed with our new ground as "its the coldest ground Ive ever been to." It was snowing at the time! Must come from the warm side of wigan.

Oooh.... is it the return of the Wigan joke thread (And if we've never had one, why not?)

My favourite:

Two crust munchers walking the cobbled streets of pie land and one sees something shining on the floor. Being inquisitive he picks it up and sees its a piece of mirror.
Looking in it he says "I'm sure I know that face".
Other one says "Lets have a look...... Of course you do, its me you daft bugger!"
