Starting from the United league game at Old Trafford we played 8 League games to the end of the season and got 3 points. Relegated by 3 points! Tottenham beat us at Boundary Park in our penultimate game (played on Thursday night). If we had won that then Tottenham would have been relegated and we would have stayed up. Milligan was either sent off very early or they deliberately injured him.
Could it be a medal for some kind of amateur cup competition run by Latics? The W. C. could stand for "Workshop Cup". These kind of local competitions were very common for much of the early part of last century.
Not so. Every week there are always scouts in the main stand and for the Exeter game there were 10+. One, from a Championship side, obviously got their man and has been to at least 3 games this season watching one of 'our own'.
