But as Erin explained in her post, James' latest footballing victory celebrations with the family meant so much more to them than most people will know.
In an Instagram post, the Derry woman said: "This picture. No one will ever know how special it is to us. We’ve never been able to celebrate the big moments in football with willow by our side. She needs sheltered from the noise and crowds and it’s always best for her to keep her away. But today she did us so BLOODY proud.
"Walked over to James on the stage in front of the crowd and we got an actual family pic of the 5 of us for the first time ever in football. And she’s smiling, my heart. This is stuff we’ve always dreamed of and thought that she’d always be missing from. Amazing ."
Hundreds of fans from across Wigan gathered at the park to meet their local heroes and pose for photographs.
Taking to Instagram himself, James said: "Life isn’t perfect, but it has perfect moments."
