[@CoreRTV]

Where has the time gone I remember watching wigan at Springfield park with my Dad and Grandfather in the 90s

[@bobclover4634]

I remember when Dave said he'd take us to the prem in 10 years. My uncle asked me my thoughts and I just laughed and said it wouldn't happen, but he actually did it. I was only 5 but in my mind it was impossible. Now anytime I think something is out of my reach I remember that moment. It reminds me with enough work and dedication I can reach my goals.

[@lukaszcilia4439]

I love Wigan they always have a special place in my heart I want to play for Wigan athletic someday Because of this amazing history I LOVE WIGAN ❤️

First ever game I went was in 1996 against Hereford as an 11 year old, think we won 2 nil, around 3 and half thousand in Springfield Park. I miss that place.
