It's FA Cup Third Round Day

And I can't be bothered.

Sunderland away, I haven't gone and doubt whether I'll keep my eye on the scores.

Who'd have thought it would have come to this. Ah well "live the dream" and all that - Premier league survival, lack of money, the club playing its reserves.

And to think 37 years ago Wigan Athletic of the Northern Premier League was playing Manchester City of the First Division. We lost 1-0 but it was a great day with 17,000 Latics fans in the near 47,000 crowd.

Today there will probably be nearer to 170 there from Wigan.

Football's changed - for the better?

Well that's for the individual to decide!
