Same here - have been with this site since December 2002 when we moved to Ireland - don't know what we would have done without it!!! Moderators do a great job and have seen a lot of posters, players and coaches come and go in that time. Have tried other sites but they just don't do it for us.Forever Warrior wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 8:36 am I’m not a very regular poster but enjoy reading the views and comments of others. Thanks to Mike, Josie and others who maintain and monitor the site. It’s my go to site for information on the Warriors.
Both of us are Ancient & Loyal Brendapieeater wrote: ↑Sat Oct 15, 2022 2:38 pmSame here - have been with this site since December 2002 when we moved to Ireland - don't know what we would have done without it!!!

I'm guessing we could be classed as "ancient and loyal" now
It hasn’t changed very much I live very close to the farm on Latham Lane, the owners who I’m friends withkitt green warriors wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 9:41 am I joined September 23rd 2007, so that's just over 15 years, we left in 2013, (The boys did the double for me), that's what I used to say was going to happen to the regulars in the East stand around me, my last match was the Grand final and we left on the Monday for Bris Vegas, time flies!, I wonder what's changed in Wigan in 10 years but I bet Kitt Green hasn't changed that much?. PS, I'm looking forward to meeting Lee Briers in January at the Broncos members day, he was a hated man when I was there but I must admit I've changed my tune!. Also what happened to the Oracle that was CP Wigan?
You're right Josie, we were still there the first time they tried for that road. I'm led to believe they've started building on the old Abby Guest site, that's going to make Ormskirk Rd a nightmare, I'm also told that the town centre is a ghost town nowadays and worst of all the pound bakery isn't a pound for 2 anymore, and Galloways, well what can I say, I fantasise about a meat n potato pie but not at the prices I see £2.60 a pie!!!!.josie andrews wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 11:41 amIt hasn’t changed very much I live very close to the farm on Latham Lane, the owners who I’m friends withkitt green warriors wrote: ↑Sun Oct 16, 2022 9:41 am I joined September 23rd 2007, so that's just over 15 years, we left in 2013, (The boys did the double for me), that's what I used to say was going to happen to the regulars in the East stand around me, my last match was the Grand final and we left on the Monday for Bris Vegas, time flies!, I wonder what's changed in Wigan in 10 years but I bet Kitt Green hasn't changed that much?.

Although they tried again to take over the green belt The Bell & the Blackpool Donkey Sanctuary which home there. Company’s wanted planning permission to build a road & warehouses from the M6 at Orrell all the way through to Heinz. But our petitioning of the council got it withdrawn again, they planners tried once before you must have been living here then. I didn’t want lorries & warehouses on my back garden when there is already a massive site at Walthew Lane with loads of land & lots of empty buildings. They already took over part of Porters Wood!
Give my regards to Lee Briers, became quite friendly with him while he was here
