A closer look at...

Wigan Athletic vs Grimsby Town 


Wigan Athletics first ever football league game - after 34 rejections from the football league, My club Wigan Athletic where allowed to enter the hallowed '92'. In 1978 thanks to Southport FC who's ground did not meet the standards for the league, We took there place. And we have never looked back since.


During that historic season, Wigan Athletic would finish a very credible 6th place.


Here at red bricks and coal, We took a closer look at the programme from that very first game - Grimsby Town FC.

A closer look at Good Northern's Blog...

I tend to stick to reading blogs that I have a keen intrest in and also write about myself - Be it Clothes,Music,Fashion,Film,Beer etc....I have been taking a keen interest in a North East lads blog for a while..He follows his local team, Likes his clothes music and ale ( very much like this blog it seems...)

Seems to come across very well in his posts & they are always a decent read...

If you have a spare minute take the time to go over and take a read: http://www.goodnorthern.blogspot.com/


Lets have a look at...

Some nostalgia - I have been collecting 'old' Wigan Athletic programs for a while - This one is quite significant. Wigan Athletic vs Sheffield Wednesday in the FA Cup 2nd Round in 1977 - Wigan Athletics last non league season before entering the hallowed' 92 and we won the game 1-0! If you look at the pictures bellow ( Click on them for a bigger image of course) you can see the non league legends of this club & also some of the people we played during that year.
