Is It True No One Was Ever Prosecuted For Drugs At Wigan Casino
As a 17yr old I was searched on the car park after getting off the Wolves coach and busted .I was put into ds car always remember it was a mini and told to put my hands up till we got to Wigan cop shop. Charged with possession and intent to supply and put in a cell with a very well known member of a family from Stoke , what a learning curve that was , and from that day my life changed I was in.... people would say hello how u doin, all cos the drug squad wanted names of suppliers ,dealers back in Wolves and I was sayin nothin, and now I was in with the Stoke lot to. My parents were non to happy with me being 17 they had to fetch me from Wigan cop shop to bail me.

The Film - Reviews
Just watched the film, saw flashes of my own past .....even down to the long leather .thought the casino toilets looked a bit clean and empty of obligatory nutters. Would love the film to have put across more of the friendships you make with people from other towns , all with the same love of the music , mundane jobs,etc. Saw plenty of older lot fixing up on Jethros coach back in the day just seemed the norm, made new friends along the way and lost a few to to gear. That's the gamble I guess.
