Darren Bent’s Rant Goes A-Twitter

by Ethan Armstrong on July 31, 2009 · 3 comments

When I first heard of Twitter, I thought it was a dirty verb, like: “Get Twittered!” or “Go Twitter yourself!” (And maybe there’s still potential for that.) Turns out it’s a social networking website. And it has undeniably become the Next Big Net Thing.
In addition to allowing friends to keep up with each other’s day-to-day goings-on, all kinds of organizations from restaurants to [...]

Can Wigan Afford To Lose Steve Bruce?

Would Bruce seriously consider near enough ruling himself out [...]

by Paul Bestall on April 2, 2009 · 8 comments

These will be rapid fire after the fun day of news already discussed.
* Shawn Wright-Phillips receives a three match ban for the kick he gave Rory Delap. Delap is supporting SWP saying he deserved what he got after his tackle on him. And through all of this, Jose Bosingwa is just laughing that he got [...]

Rafa’s Ranting Is Doing Liverpool No Favors

by Johnathan Starling on January 29, 2009 · 3 comments

The sooner Rafa Benitez keeps his mouth shut about how teams are playing against Liverpool, even in off handed ways, and focuses on getting your team back on the winning path; the better off you will be. The comments made after Liverpool’s 1-1 draw at the JJB against Wigan in my mind read like a [...]
