SAFCBlog Happy Sunday SPZL

“This isn’t just food……. This is dirty Wigan van food”

Yesterday…..

“How hot are his hands?”

Not loads to add about yesterday, we played really well, we deserved to win, it was a good day – we’ve not had many good days of late. I could add more, but before you know it, you’ve got another guest blog scenario on your hands? Just great yesterday lads, I didn’t fancy us, but we were tremendous⚽️🔴⚪️⚽️

A job well done ✅ Very, very well done ⚽️
Yes I misread it too at first, I’ve not, (to date), had a Bobble Hat Business, but if I did, (or do), I’d ensure the driver of this van was wearing a bobble hat 100%. If the SAFCBlog Photographer wasn’t a, (complete), fucking idiot – there would be a picture of the van driver, there isn’t.

The Away Day Experience……

Our fans were class yesterday, fantastic noise throughout. We were discussing on the way down, (as we often do), how amazing our travelling support is….. Wigan feels like a close game for us, although Wigan have Bolton, Fleetwood, Accrington, Crewe, Morecambe, all significantly closer than our 1st piss stop on an away day?

A few thoughts on the DW Stadium……

  • non existent stewarding, loads skulling beer in the stands all game – I’m fortunate to not normally require a steward, or in equal measure not bother them, but in a stand of 4800, surely there should be a presence? Not just as a control measure, but as a duty of care / responsibility? Heaven forbid a situation akin to Tuesday night had developed in the away yesterday
  • whilst it’s not great, when you visit, Leeds, Wednesday, Everton Forest, Liverpool etc, it’s understandable that the concourses and access points are not fit for a modern day football fan experience. Wigan is a new stadium….. I’m steady on my feet and can generally find my seat without guidance….. but shocking yesterday Wigan…. steepest stand ever, concourse uncomfortably overcrowed, smallest entry / exit points ever…..I’m ok with young scrotes giving it large from there stand, (never saw them afterwards funnily enough), but it’s 2022 – just get some stewards and kick the pricks out, (or keep them in and release as the away fans leave?)
  • yet again, smoke bomb central. Dogs are class, I probably shouldn’t feel the need to explain to my dogs where I’ve been at 50 years of age…… but anyone who doesn’t speak to dogs is an idiot, 100%. What’s the point of sniffer dogs if they can’t detect what they are looking for?
This lad hasn’t lost a tennis ball in 9 years….. can’t be that fucking hard?🐶

Up Next, Charlton…..

I’d decided not to go….. might have a game of golf, go to a bakery etc…. but I’m giving it a miss, 100%…

System reset?🔴⚽️⚽️⚽️⚪️
See you Saturday….. we go again⚽️🔴⚪️⚽️ It’s the only way❤️
