PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 148: Hypnotic suggestion
All of a sudden, I know exactly what that Derren Brown bloke is talking about. The power of suggestion is all around us at this time of year. As I stared at the waist-high pile of Jacob’s boxes hidden in a dark corner of my sizeable drinks cabinet, I suddenly realised why I thought to […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 147: Maximum Power
Neil Robertson, what a guy! On becoming the first player to make a maximum break in the UK Championship Final, he dedicated his achievement to 147 editions of the Progress With Unity Podcast. We don’t have the heart to tell him my numbering system is flawed and that there have actually been 176 episodes if […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 146: Fifty Shades of Pink
Why hello, darlings! I’m just preparing my house for the John Stones Paint makeover team, who will soon be paying a visit to JWAW Towers for a faaaab-ulous spot of DIT. I won’t have to lift a finger as they do it themselves, picking the hamster hairs from my plug holes and repainting the man-sized […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 145: About face
The burning question on this week’s PWU Podcast: exactly how did Burton Albion defeat Wigan Athletic? Was it through persistent pressing and brickwall defensive sensibilities? Was it through effective handling of late November conditions and sheer physical strength? Or maybe it was because they had the correct players in the correct position to sidefoot home […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 144: TV winners (and losers)
Savour it while you still can, chaps! Fairly soon, on-demand league tables via your television could be a thing of the past as Auntie Beeb phases out the Red Button, formerly Ceefax. Best ready your anti-Arnold devices, for this surely signals the end of the convenience age and the beginning of the Skynet automated thought […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 143: Wrought irony
Oh, the irony – that one derided by a great majority, with the first touch of a man made of rubber, should come within a pigeon’s fart of a hat trick (for the second time in four weeks), while the hamstrung darling of ES2 should remain unrewarded. Cruel, cruel fate! OK, Shakespeare, enough of the […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 142: No Parkin
Ah, I *knew* there was something spooky going on! Having reviewed replays of Saturday’s grisly grindfest, I have uncovered irrefutable evidence that this was, in fact, the pseudo-holiday known as All Hallows’ Eve. For you see, Swindon’s fleet of foot blockmaster extraordinaire Lawrence Vigouroux is certainly a vampire – he isn’t very good with crosses. […]

PWU Wigan Athletic Podcast No. 141: Yanic To The Future Part II
Great Scott! You can forget all this televisual film time travel fakery – I really did go back in time on Sunday morning. At 2am, I loaded up teletext to watch the clock skip back exactly 60 minutes, giving me the rare opportunity to relive the previous hour of my life. Now, I would like […]
