Just 50yards from the DW Stadium the home of Wigan Athletic is the Robin Park Arena, home of Wigan Robin Park FC.

Saturday 21st August (the same day Latics host Chelsea @ 5.15pm) WRPFC play Irlam in a Vodkat Div 1 game with a 3pm kick-off.

See where this is going?

The Robins are offering reduced admission to anyone who has a ticket for the Chelsea game or a Latics season ticket, it’ll cost just £3 (£1.50 concessions) to watch what will no doubt be an entertaining non-league fixture.

If you love your football then this is an ideal way to spend a Saturday afternoon/early evening and take in two matches in one day, you know it makes sense, see you there.

To live in the world without becoming aware of the meaning of the world is like wandering about in a great library without touching the books.

May the fourth be with you !

I've been alerted to an event that will take place later this week, something that happens once and only once over the course of history. Shortly after noon on July 8, comes the moment that can be called 12:34:56 7/8/9.
It's not exactly true that this sequence of time/date happens only once.
If you follow the day/month/year convention, you can observe the same sequence next month, on August 7.
And even though it appears to be a rare occurrence, such interesting patterns aren't that unusual.
Consider these from the past:
01:23:45 6/7/89
12:34.56 7/8/90
01:02:03 04/05/06
In a couple of years we'll have 11:11:11 11/11/11.
