| Quote wigan pie man="wigan pie man"i think some of us know all about the green vigo story without reading it.
which story would you like to hear? the gun wavinmg in hallgate? the attempted entry with manace in ince, the platt bridge labour club incident, the squirrell arms incident, the incident in whelley.......there are just too many.
if the authors done a thorough job then i reckon it will be a good read.
was sad in a way how he went.......he came over from south africa where he had never touched alcohol, and was introduced to it by colin clarke, terry cass, and a few others iirc.........
i used to bump into em in maximes on a saturday, and i knew terry.
sadly the last time i saw him was last year on ince bar at 11 in the morning drunk as a skunk trying to get a taxi to somewhere or other with a couple of deadbeats.
legend on the field though'"
does he really still live in wigan? |

Correct.
It's just a shame he fell in with Terry Hollingsworth, Billy Melling etc.
Today he would have been a top class player. |

He was a top class player then..but I know what you mean he would have been a crowd favorite (as he was then) but now he would have brought more to the club to watch him . one of the best wingers I've seen at wigan..and we've had a few!.. shame what happened to him..but for the fans that saw him in action the memories are still there. |
