  1. What we're talking about here though is not making progress, one chairman has taken a club in a small town where rugby is king from 3rd division to the Prem in the same time as ours has taken us backwards. If we had stayed 2nd every year and just couldnt get that final bit to pass Arsenal or ManUre then I would agree with you but frankly to say that Freddy is better than Whelan because its easier for Wigan to pass 60 clubs than it is for us to pass 5 is, at best the ramblings of a madman. Wigan is a small (pop 89k) rugby mad town surrounded by Manchester, Liverpool, Blackburn and Bolton whereas Newcastle (pop 276k) has a tradition of being football mental and gets the same numbers of people turning out to watch a player sign! You cannot say that its easier for them to rise 3 divisions, easily be challenging us year on year and get people to turn up week on week when they're fans would rather be either watching the rugby or ManUre, Liverpool et al. Shepherd has had it easy, the leg work has been done by decades of other chairmen, year after year we have had high attendances, getting the fans in there is never a problem (although based on last Sundays attendance it seems we may be losing some). A chairman is measured on what he does for the club from the moment he takes over to the day he leaves, Shepherd has done nothing that the previous chairman didnt do better, Whelan and Madjeski however have managed amazing things at Wigan and Reading. They will be remembered by their fans long after they've gone whereas ours will not I can guarantee you that.
  2. Surely this ups the ante? Come on folks, the thought of him getting his sac n crack waxed by his ex is too good to miss, get ya hands in your pockets.
  3. Was I the only one who heard this voice when reading that?
  4. If its the bit I remember I think the outside scenes were Bar 38.
  5. Im sorry like Leazes but the above is bollocks, obviously your view of chairmen is that if they haven't made Europe then they're shite. Whelan has taken Wigan from nothing (amateur at the time I believe) and took them in 20 years to the Premiership, built a new stadium and currently has them above us. 1995/96 - Wigan finish 10th in 3rd division, so that made them 77 places below us seeing as we finished 2nd in the Premiership. 2005/06 - Wigan finish 10th in Premiership and we finish 7th, so we were 3 places above them. So in the last ten years Shepherd has taken us down 5 places while Whelan has taken them up 67 places. Still the useless bastard hasnt had them in the Champions League so obviously Shep is the better chairman and so far we've always been above them so fuck youuuu Whelan you pile of shite!
