It really is a phenomenally inspiring piece of work, which is a good thing, since I’m guessing that was the brief! Trying to intertwine the tales and memories of the players with those of the supporters and the everyday life in the town is a very simple concept, but to pull it off in such a professional and polished manner is the real achievement of this documentary, so bravo on that.

I’m sure it was a challenging and comparatively costly exercise for Fuzzy Duck and the club to put this together, but it is definitely money well spent and leaves us with a worthy project of which everyone can be proud. It should also be said that this entire heritage project is something that many other clubs would not be in a position – financially or logistically - to put together, so we really ought to appreciate what a ground-breaking vision and lasting investment this is by the club. I thank them and their collaborators who worked so hard to bring it to life.

One point of note: after watching the two teasers again, I noticed that many of the interview and nostalgic match footage excerpts that appeared in them did not feature in the documentary itself. Obviously, this is a necessity of the editorial process and putting together a cohesive final documentary, but I imagine that this and, doubtless, further unused footage would be of great interest to supporters. Is there any chance that these could be seen at a later date?

just a dig at the wigan fans , as they believe they never bought every bit of talant they could

Great video, Credit to all involved.

oh right, my bad



i was thinking 'of course they bought up all the best players'.

Just watched both videos, fantastic project well worth watching

Thank you so much for all the fantastic comments for our work. All the Ducks who worked on both the Wire heritage wall and the films are thrilled with the response it's getting.

Just a couple of points to answer from your posts: The best way to get people to see the films is to go on the heritage tour at the HJ organised by the Wire2Wolves foundation, the films are played alongside the Timeline Wall we also designed. In fact it is the foundation who organised and sourced funding for this work through the Heritage Lottery Fund, so apart from the long hours by Neil Kelly and his team, it didn't cost the club a penny to create. Supporting the foundation is crucial for more work like this to celebrate the history of this fine club, town and wonderful sport of ours.

We have shot lots more footage and many more amazing stories to tell that we have already captured from the extensive interviews. Many of the stories can't go in the current films as these need be accessible to children and we would need to have age restrictions to tell the complete tale. We are itching to put together a feature length documentary and feel it would resonate with an audience far wider than our home supporters but to all fans of sport.

It seems that there is an appetite for more and with your support for the Wite2Wolves foundation I'm sure we can get a DVD/Blu-Ray/download distributed.
