The deadline is looking for the 40th Anniversary Dinner as we need to order food and work out the room setup.

Join us for a night of fun, looking back across 5 decades of Wigan Athletic being elected to the football league back on the 2nd June 1978.

We have representation across the years, with many players and officials coming to talk about the many achievements Latics have made.

We have the likes of Micky Worswick, Jeff Wright, Peter Houghton and more from the non-league squad that got us the League position to be elected.

We have record holders like Kevin Langley, Warren Aspinall and David Lowe, plus fan favourites like Joe Hinningan, Bryan Griffiths and FA Cup lifting Captain Emmerson Boyce.

Club Officials like Alan Muir will be in the room, with Jonathan Jackson, Ray Matthias, Bill Kenyon and more. The difference Alan and Bill will have encountered to Jonathan Jackson is vast and will really put things in perspective.<

The Cups will be there, it is amazing what our Club has won over the years. The FA up, AWS, Freight Rover, Lancashire Cup,  3rd Division, 2nd Division and League 1 Champions plus the non-league stuff.

The meal is Potato and Leak Soup, Chicken with Bacon and Mushrooms, Cheesecake then tea or coffee. The dietary option is Roasted Courgettes stuffed with Mediterranean Vegetables served with a Napoli sauce.

Dress code is smart/Casual and there are just 50 or tickets left, the secure booking area is here.
