Progress With Unity toasts its second new manager in the usual fashion – with a pint in the Springfield. Yep, after last week’s torrent of criticism aimed in the general direction of that bloke we’ve already forgotten about, the team have been unceremoniously banned from their usual Book Cycle studios! Don’t worry, much like… [insert…
Question: What does it take for Progress With Unity‘s latent anti-Coyle sentiment to emerge? Answer: Three straight losses and an instant sacking. Never has so much vitriol been directed at an individual since the Head of Pies on the DW concourse decided to replace their Poole’s stock with Holland’s. Blasphemy! Apparently we never wanted him,…
They don’t call me the Fastest Gun in the West… because I’m not. International Latics fan Mike, however, can be described as such – just hours after landing in the UK he was participating in the latest edition of that podcast. No, not the one presented by that chuckling northern idiot Yack, but the professional…
Ladies and gentlemen, JWAW announces its triumphant return to cheesy headline writing with the imminent arrival of Manchester United’s Will Keane. Not that we’ve ever been away, but young Will (not to be confused with Will Young) has an extremely tabloid-friendly surname which you might be hearing a few more times before we’re Banned From…
Whoever said Latics had no fans? A good chunk of those 100,000 spectators at the Yeovil game on Sunday must have been from the north west. Nope, all the pictures that made it seem as though there were about fifty have been fabricated in the name of cheap ‘entertainment’. Keep it to yourself, but I…
Fresh from their exhausting expedition to the North Pole AKA Stadium DW, your humble podcasters are grateful of the relative warmth of Studio PWU. Speak not of their abandoned excursion, otherwise sponsors may learn the grisly fate of the vessel… we’ll be in deep trouble if that holiday camp in Southport discover we pinched their…
It’s not every day the Wigan Athletic Head of Media is asked to participate in small time internet podcasts. Or at least, that’s the impression I got from meeting journalist, author and long-time Latics supporter Ed Jones at the DW Stadium on Monday afternoon. Do not be fooled by his snappy answer to the question,…
Ahh, remember this game? It was supposed to be played aeons ago, but due to broadcast delay, only reaches our screens this evening. Except it isn’t being shown on television but in real life at the (re-rebranded) DW Stadium. Aw, they don’t show replays in the real world! Heh, much like Sky Sports’ coverage of…
Since those pesky fixture generators have scheduled a match for Wednesday night, this edition of the PWU Podcast has been brought forward 48 hours. But before you splatter your evening coffee all over the VDU in sheer disgust, continue to the next paragraph – you might be pleasantly surprised. I do not know how, but…
~ PWU Episode 60 JWAW Agenda. ~ In the first paragraph I will introduce this particular episode of the podcast, probably with some ‘witty’ or cynical comment because I ran out of relevant humorous quips and topics for discussion precisely five years ago. In this paragraph I shall uncomfortably stutter my way through a joke…
*Monotonic A-Team ringtone* What’s that, Chief O’Riley? The fiendish International Fixtures Man has been truncating the domestic calendar for those involved in Europa Cup ties again? This looks like a job for… the Affectionate Sarcasm Crew! No, Obscure References Man, you can’t be involved in this one. Stay here and sort our Doctor Who DVD…
Be it for reasons good or bad, there is one name that seems to crop up week after week on the Progress With Unity Podcast. I’m not talkin’ ’bout Mr Ref Ree, whomever he may be, I’m talking ’bout Jeen. Or to be more precise, Shortsman‘s preferred left wing utility player Jean Beausejour – and…
