Wigan Athletic Home camisa de futebol 1972

1972 Wigan Athletic home camisa de futebol. This is the shirt worn by Mickey Worswick in the 1973 Wembley final v Scarbourgh.

The shirt was worn by M Worswick in the early 70s at Wembley, when Wigan played Scarborough in the non leauge cup see picture (Front row far left). Mickey was a fans favourite at Wigan and always gave 100%, in the years to follow he was awarded a testimonial and various concerts where arranged in the Wigan area.

Graham and his wife where local singers and performed at these concerts.

Mickey wanted to pay Graham for these but he would never take any money, in the end he asked him if there was anything else he would accept and Graham asked about the shirt.

Mickey was pleased to give it him and Graham was thrilled to bits in his eyes it was worth a lot more than money.

In the early 90s Graham and his wife moved to Lanzarote and bought a bar called Bourbon street.

He had a lot of old pictures which he displayed on the walls and such and when Wigan fans went over they would visit the bar and re live old times.

Sadly last year Graham and his wife died within a couple of weeks of each other and the bar was sold.

Most of the old pictures and programs where thrown away but a local friend of Grahams managed to salvage the shirt and contacted John Rohan, an old friend back in Wigan about it.

When John heard about the memorabilia being thrown away he was gutted.

There where pictures programs and other Wigan stuff all worth a lot to any old Wigan fan.

The one saving grace was the shirt he had managed to get it back to John in Wigan.

John didn't really want to keep the shirt at home in his wardrobe and contacted the club to see if they could help.

We Wigan fans have come a long way from the non league days to the premiership but in the JJB stadium there is not much about our past.

The club said that they would like to frame it and put it on disply in one of the corporate lounges, so last Monday John went down and had some pictures taken of him handing it over to the club.

The pictures should be in the next program against Bolton i think. (11/03/08)
