As usual at Wigan, some great stuff played over the Tannoy yesterday. Highlights for me were California Soul, Marvin Gaye and Tammi Terrell and Dean Parrish, I’m on my Way. They were both after the game. Didn’t get to the ground until after kick off so not sure what was played before the game. At other games I’ve heard them play Frank Wilson’s Do I Love You, Frankie Valli’s The Night, Gloria Jones, Tainted Love and many, many more
Whoever is playing those records has wonderful taste and I hope Wigan are back in the premier league very soon if only for that reason.
And Shay Given was on our train back to London last night. Still wearing his Villa tracky
And I saw Sid and McNaught in a pub in Wigan before the game.
