Rivlin Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 The news that Wigan have "snapped up Steven Caldwell" reminds me of the story of Morecombe and Wise's debut at the Glasgow Empire. Ernie appeared first and was soon roundly booed. Eric then appeared to a shout from the stalls "Christ, there's two of them!!" I think the Wigan supporters will be feeling the same.

I think that was actually Mike and Bernie Winters...however your point is valid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Francis Albert Posted August 23, 2010 Share Posted August 23, 2010 I think that was actually Mike and Bernie Winters...however your point is valid. That's the version I remember ... a better comparison too to the Caldwells in their "talent" in their respective fields. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rivlin Posted August 23, 2010 Author Share Posted August 23, 2010 I think that was actually Mike and Bernie Winters...however your point is valid. Your right, I'm wrong. The Morecombe and Wise story was them walking off to "no applause, only the sound of their own footsteps. As they passed the sad-faced fireman who always stood in the wings, he fixed them with a knowing look, flicked what little was left of his cigarette into a sandbucket and muttered, They're beginning to like you'.
