Well, i always used to call it "The JJB" when we were heading to your end, but i guess now it will be "Robin Park" for me, purely because "The DW" just sounds like a pub or something along those lines. It would also confuse the c**p out of me, as my memory has been shockin this last year or so
I guess this is an equivalent (for want of a better word) of Knowsley Road officially changing its name to the GPW Recruitment stadium. I don't think i've ever heard anyone call it that in regular conversation. Its still "Knowsley Road", "KR", "the s**thole" (all away fans, most home fans!) or "the ground" (anyone calling it "the stadium" needs their eyes and y'ed testing).
As has been pointed out, the bigger worry is Whelan's blatant favouritism of the soccerball team. All good and well for the Latics getting where they are, but (despite the jibes from other teams' fans) i'm pretty sure everyone involved in our game would prefer a Wigan team that isn't getting b\/mmed backroom. Maybe on the pitch though
(though not literally in a ghey sense).
And there it went. Post finally trailed off....... apologies to those who spent time reading it
(though not literally in a ghey sense).
