| In the last week Wigan put adverts on TV, Radio and full page in a free newspaper for the Huddersfield game, last season the attendance for this match was 13619, played in August on a Sunday. Tonight it attracted a crowd of 19169 a rise of 5550 or 40.75% on last season, so does telling people about your game and building it up work?

Possibly when we have got a spare £50,000 to throw at the tv, papers, radio etc we will do it.

so that was good for the travelling fans only a tenner, or was it just for the Wigan fans and not the "away" end. But even with that I reckon they made about £70,000 on last years take.

| To paraphrase the American John Wanamaker: "Half the money spent on advertising is wasted; the trouble is you don't know which half!"

| Great effort by Wigan.
However, a 40% rise would take our 3.5k (my guesstimate of our Hudds-at-home crowd) to 5k.
I don't have the figures, but I'd fancy Wigan's outlay on this big marketing push somewhat eclipsed the revenue that 1.5k extra fans (on cheap tickets) would bring us.

Yeah,
A taxi driver said that he heard we've got Cas on Friday because he's heard it on the radio. I put him in his place, but he wasn't having any of it. Very very poor.

No one's saying that, yeah maybe Rock are playing the wrong tape either way its poor. Or is ok to advertise the wrong game?
