Sell outs will happen once we become a sucessfull team over a period of time. |

And until then, we don't need to expand the stadium IMO. |

Spot on.
If the team can stay at or around the level that you've been at this year then within 2-3 years you'll be selling out a lot more frequently than a couple of games a season. As much as it pains me to admit it, I've enjoyed watching Wire this year, some of the attacking play has been very easy on the eye.
If you take Bradford's crowd differences from 10 years ago to today, you can easily see Wire steadily starting to fill the ground to the point where talk of expansion is a viable option. |

| Quote: Paul2812 "I reckon Leeds or Hull could if they discounted the tickets against Quins as much as you did for their home ties against them. Although your marketing is good you aren't the club who wins the best community based club each year. I forget which club wins that award. Reducing prices to put bums on seats is hardly straight out of Saachi & Saachi's main think-tank is it ?
However, I do love sticking it up the noses of Wendyball fans when they go on about the Latics and their Premiership status. I may be off the mark but I reckon the Pies get a bigger home attendance than their land lords which reflects well, not just on Wigan RL, but on the sport of Rugby League.'"
I agree with your second comment re sticking it up the Latics, but you've missed the point with your first comment. Wigan would normally get 12-14,000 for a Quins match. If they sell 5,000 tickets at £10 each to two large companies who then give those tickets to their employees, then everyone gains. Wigan get £50,000 extra that they wouldn't normally get for a Quins game and will probably gain a few new fans. |

I may be off the mark but I reckon you're wrong about that. |

Wires initial allocation was 15 thousand, i'm pretty sure we recieved altogether 21thousand off the rfl so how did your brothers figure reach 35 k lol... the rest were bought direct from the rfl.. As was said above wire did say around 25k fans, so if they had the figures of 35 k i'm more than sure they would of released that seeing as its a pretty impressive figure |
