Why would anyone outside direct supporters know about it, you only read what you wNt to as well, as I said the majority of people in this town have no sporting allegiance and many of those that do don't give a fig about a pathetic feud, Lisa Nandy is not a sorts fan and only been to odd games of either code, why should she be bothered about pettiness.
They where good days mateJust about but only by reputation -the young Hampton was too scared to ever go in the Crofters - much safer playing the mini space invaders downstairs in Blutos
Some of your words are cryptic today lmb
Better strap yourself in this afternoon then GG
- could be another tatering today 
I did once get dragged onto a bus to Makerfield with some "big lads" to sort out the "Ashton Baddies" who actually turned out to be "Asgton Runners" - hilarious looking back, terrified at the time

Neither could I but that bus journey seems like yesterday - was only minding my own business walking through town and got press ganged as a mate of mine was a younger brother of the wigan mob led by a lad called Cammy. It was a real lose lose moment

Let's be generous and say both clubs have 10k core supporters - whether they agree with the dislike between the clubs or not the vast majority of those 20k will be aware of the mutual dislike / piss taking / call it what you like.
The mob I got roped on with - Think the Cammy in question was called James not sure if that's the old or young or maybe another one ?
There are two constituencies in Wigan, so that halves your assumption for a start.Let's be generous and say both clubs have 10k core supporters - whether they agree with the dislike between the clubs or not the vast majority of those 20k will be aware of the mutual dislike / piss taking / call it what you like.
So that's over 25% of Lisa's constituents - she should absolutely be aware of it sports fan or not
Ps - re the "only read what you want" comment - take a long look in the mirror pal
Apparently my argument falls over as most Worriers aren't Nandy's constituents at all
Fair point - let's knock Lisa constituents involved level to 12.5% - if a group of folk at that level - let's say - LGBT or BAME had grievances would she be aware of them ?
Tbh LMB I have only had a positive view of one MP across the 10 or so constituencies I have lived in, Lindsay Hoyle, the rest (of all colours) seem like rats in a barrel interested in climbing the greasy pole first and foremost.
Not on my radar this T&C as it's not my good but I am intrigued as to why 2 groups of Americans from the space agency and an airline would choose Newtown for a kick off.

Was it about air traffic control authority for rocket launches ?
Do you think she knows about Uncle Joe's or that Wigan is an ex mining town or that the baths deep end was 16'6" either - come on LMB most in the town are aware the two don't like each other as they are of the other examples of Wigan DNA
