You all seem to be a bit confused. There are 2 types of mullet in Argentina: the 'fashion' mullet, sported by gay-clothed macho nonces (ooh, what a juxtaposition the men are here...) and the full-on working class, 2 kilo steak-eating, beer guzzling mullet from hell. Also known as the 'Adelaide mullet' or 'trailer-trash mullet'. I've just had to cut my hair after 6 months as it was getting perilously close to being a full on proper mullet. And it was getting kiss-curls. Most unattractive.

I once asked a gay-clothed macho nonce why he thought that growing his hair long at the back would be a hit with the ladies and he replied that the style was 'Spanish'. That didn't really answer my question but watching him fail time and time again with everything with brea sts kind of did. He went home alone.

Mind you, i bet that you get your fair share of mullets around Wigan, eh Carlos? BTW, you lot are playing a bit too well for my liking, it's about time you got sent to your rightful place, down at the bottom with everton comedy club and sunderland hehe. You've had a much better start than we have, just hope it doesn't continue. Bet ellington's kicking himself though...!

Wigan and male grooming are strange bedfellows.
The mullet wasn't big here but it had its time arond
1984-1987. What was more popular was the flat top
as in Larry Blackmon of Cameo fame.

The star player for the Wigan rugby league team was a player called
Ellery Hanley who sported a nice flat top which was 6 inches
high and square... lovely. So the boys of Wigan went to the barbers
and tried to emulate their hero, thing was Hanley was black and
the nutters who got their flat tops were white. This style didn't
go out of fashion as several style icons who wore this haircut
were icons amongst the white working class halfwits of the
area ie: Martin Offiah, Ivan Drago of Rocky IV fame, Grace
Jones, Vanilla Ice etc

I had a nice flat top around this time.

Around 1991, Hanley went and got his hair shaved around the
side and had his flat top cut short... so thats what everyone
else did too... I did because I was in the army and thats the
regulation haircut anyway so it suited my purposes.

Nowadays the style of choice is the 'no1' which is a skinhead
this is good for the young men of Wigan as it is handy for a few
things:

You don't have to wash it in the mornings

You don't have to comb it in the mornings

You don't have to buy shampoo and a comb therefore
you save money and buy things you need like alcohol and
drugs.

You can headbutt people in the kebab shop without getting
your flat top covered in blood

If Argentines dress badly then thats OK because it is a poorish
country, but Wigan is part of a country that is part of the G7, not
that Wigan contributes to the UK being part of the G7 but still the
men and women were sportswear with garish colours on a daily
basis.

Yeah, no-one is more suprised about Wigan Ath
being up there than us lot. Whats more suprising
is that they are playing physical, long ball game
circa Wimbledon 1989 and it is working.

I think this is because the premiership has gone full
circle as in bringing in foreign imports, who have little
idea how to stop the brutish presence of our team who can
run for 90 minutes as well as tackle and track back.

Wimbledon had some success but the British players who
play at a fast physical pace soon had the antidote to physical
long ball play. Jewell has brought that back in but it can't
last more than a season or two before the other premiership
teams are able to contain Wigan but I'm glad of that and
I'm enjoying the ride because if Whelan doesn't bring
in some quality ball players then we are going straight back
down.

It did happen and I was crossing Julio de Nuevo. I admit that the last time I crossed the street, I was carrying a lonely planet and did have an Americanistic Sweater. I wasn't looking for sympathy I was just trying to contribute though. And I don't wear those ugly long American pants.

I hear that story over and over again, they do that a lot, had some close foreigner friends that were victims of that trick. So be aware of people trying to clean you up after being pooped by a bird.

Foreigners often complain about FAKE BILLS, if you pay a taxi dirver with $ 50 or $ 100 you will probably receive some fake bills with the change.
Try to pay taxi drivers always with change.
