| Surely the measure of success for Wigan is not simply a case of the number of people who attended, but the (cough) "quality" of people who attended?
If one corporate guest attended who wouldn't normally attend a Wigan game, that it potentially worth more than hundreds, if not thousands, of bums in the stands in the long run.
Lenaghan was clear from the outset that this isn't about filling the cheap seats. This was a networking exercise and that's how it should be judged.

Would have thought the big hitters would have been at the football or Twickers on Saturday. Although, I guess he must have invited someone with access to a few quid?

Actually, it was planned but getting the "right" ground proved tricky so the Den, due to it not being too far from the City was chosen. The Wigan stadium ownership is a stinky red herring given the latics were away at the weekend I believe.
Ian Lenegan will play the long game with this fixture. He understands there's money in the south that will want to be liked to a large regional Brand and Wigan, like it or not, are the RL side most Londoners would know if stopped and asked on the street....that's 80's cup run really did make an impression!

aboveusonlypie...
If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |
