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.

Also heard them playing Seven Nation Army before kick off.

The music was also fantastic in our last pub before the train home - The Swan by the station. Great atmosphere with dancing & singing to some great tunes. Was gutted to have to leave for our train!

Did you ask Given if he was leaving?

But the dancing of my generation is grinding and fist pumping... and I will grind my way to victory.

That's bit young to be fighting outside a pub.

The lad who did it did have a 7ish year old with him but you did make me laugh ;)

I was also in that pub enjoying the 80s tunes until catching the last train back to Brum.

The music at Wigan has always been better than the normal chart dirge they play at grounds.
-
Chico describes Wigan away as "The Fulham of the North".
He may have a point.
-
Whenever I hear Barbara Ann by the Beach Boys, it bring back memories of being surrounded by a big Forest mob at the City Ground in 1973.
Another ground for good music was always The Valley.
-
Just before kick off, I'm a Believer by the Monkees was played. Never heard the Villa fans in such tuneful voice. When the music was stopped over the PA system the Villa fans just carried on where it left off. Absolutely brilliant, we even had an ovation frm the Wigan fans.

That came across on the tv.

I was amazed so many knew the words. Didn't expect the younger (under 25's) to know if that well. Apart from at Wembley I can't recall a song over the PA being sung so loudly. Although Mr Sox failed to join in. I just sang along in my head.
