  1. I've always thought 'Team From A Town Of Chimneys' would look pretty cool on a flag. It's maybe a bit wordy though.
  2. That's ridiculous though, and completely unrealistic. Striving to be the best might be the essence of professional football for professional footballers, but it isn't for the supporters.
  3. I'd agree with this actually. I suppose I do hope we achieve some success, but there's many other factors behind me being a Latics fan above that. Also, supporting a club like Latics makes success all the sweeter. Beating Liverpool after all the :censored:e we've put up with for the past few seasons was an incredible feeling. I always think United fans celebrating winning yet another title in a season they've watched mostly in the pub/from their armchair must feel a bit empty. This latest title almost feels like they're celebrating it purely to wind Citeh fans up.It's two totally different experiences of support I suppose.
  4. 22. Went to my first games the season we were relegated from Division 1, we've been in this league ever since. I'm probably a jinx, so apologies to all.
  5. My dad starting taking me to games when I was 5, and It became ingrained. The club still feels like a community, you bump into the same people home and away. And I love live football. It'd be nice to see us have some success; but it's not the reason I support Latics. I can't understand why anyone would, especially my generation.
  6. I'm really not fussed about getting to the Premiership or having any massive success. Games like Liverpool away last season where I was surrounded by day-trippers turn my stomach; imagine that times 20 if we ever got to the top flight. My ideal dream would be to get a relatively rich businessman in who provides us with a backbone, then the rest of the squad is made up of youth products playing exciting, attacking football and we become an established Championship club, maybe having the odd season in the top flight here and there. Unfortunately it seems the only way to attain any real success in modern football is if you're bankrolled by an oligarch or a sheikh; not for me thanks. I don't support Latics in the hope of success. If I did I think I'd have gone insane by now.
  7. I'll be partying about the fact that this :censored:house of a season will be finally over
  8. No thanks. Not spending any more money on this bunch. See you all next season.
  9. Gutless bunch of twats. I'm not even gonna bother on Saturday now, no way am I spending any more money watching this lot. I feel even more disillusioned about this squad then I did Penney's. :censored: 'em.
  10. £13 for young adults (18-22) £19 for adults I think you have to go to the away ticket office beforehand, but it's right next t'away end
  11. There's nothing wrong with booing the team. We pay a ridiculous amount of money to watch, for the most part this season, gutless, spineless and useless performances. People are than entitled to voice their opinions, and the players deserve it and should be prepared for it. (For what it's worth, I don't boo. But I can't blame anyone who does). Booing individual players is a different kettle of fish though.
  12. I'll be there purely because I live 20 minutes away from Deepdale...
  13. £12 is the price it should be for everybody. £19 for :censored: 3rd tier football is an absolute disgrace bordering on robbery, and I can't people (including myself) still pay it.
  14. Do you think Smith is a Championship-level footballer? And I don't think anybody ever said Eaves was a donkey.
  15. As long as the lads show plenty of passion and give 110% then I'll be happy
  16. Can someone set up a link with the Sampdoria ultras? I want one of their shirts long sleeved but can't find one anywhere at a reasonable price. Hopefully they could bring me one over.
  17. 3) Those cheerleaders really are a bit odd. Going to a football game to conduct football chants, rather than actually watching the game. Each to their own I suppose.
  18. Agree with this. We've got a decent catalogue of chants without having to resort to dale cavese and all that. It looks/sounds great on the continent, but it's just a bit naff over here. Other than that though, good luck. We're all counting on you
