[Football] Crusty the pie

[Cowfold Seagull]

I think the pies at Wigan are superb

Well it's pie making territory the north west, they should be good at them up there.

Classic northern pie - thick crust, probably not much content. Not Piglets' by any stretch of the imagination.

I also think that he'll be an absolute MENACE when worn out and about, he'll be knocking people over all over the show. Gully regularly makes non-matchday appearances in local races and the such, he's a dignified sight running a race. Old Crusty will be knocking people flying by "accident". He's a trouble mascot, you can see it in the eyes. Not to be trusted.

You mean not to be crusted...

I’d there an alternative female vegan pie too?

 

[Guinness Boy]

News to me. Should't they be the "Letics" then ?

Must be a Lancashire thing. Oldham are also the Latics.

If you don't eat meat in Wigan you aint right.

 

[The Sock of Poskett]

He looks a bit pastry-faced to me.
Hope they didn't have fork out too much for that outfit ��

The Seagulls have a seagull.

Foxes have a fox.

etc.

Doesn't this mean that Wigan are now "The Pies"?

Wigan are somewhat restricted by the fact that their nickname The Latics is utter shithouse (what the hell is a 'Latic' anyway ?), and their badge just has a fairly nondescript tree on it, so they've had to think outside the box a bit.

Dull northerners are all about pies though I suppose, so this is about as good as it gets. Better than being a combi boiler anyway.

Perhaps they can change the crust and become the “Lattice”.
