| Quote SRW1996="SRW1996"Understood mate.
To me the squad that's coming is a first team and other than the Bowen they are showcasing all the pre season signings.
It's a very strong squad they have and let's not forget the household names like Sam, Harrison H, Pat Richards have all left them
I believe Charnley is also injured.
I think the squad that's coming makes for a really exciting game and they are all fist grade unlike previous years. Indeed the 19s squad are away at present.'"
The U19's are back - And some are playing.
Bowen, Charnley, Goudling, Green, Smith, Taylor, McIlorum, Pettybourne, Farrell, Clubb, O'Loughlin etc - Basically the starting 13 aren't playing.
It's not a warm up for the WCC in anyway shape or form, just the run of the mill run-out to shake cobwebs off.
I understand this game could be your biggest earner of the year but you've placed more value on the game than it's worth, of which most Wiganers have recognised. So I like many others will give my money to Wigan TV instead.

| Yeah, should be a good game. Stronger Wigan side than the previous 2 friendlies.
Oh, ABP, same price as last season, you armchair supporter !!!

| To be fair what ABP says is the view of all the Wigan fans at work, not one of them say they are coming.

An armchair supporter heading to Sydney next month to watch us play the Roosters. The match ticket costs less than Sunday's game.
I'm sure you now understand why I refuse to pay over the value - And why I'd prefer to save the money.

| You can all see the Wiganer's point surely?
How many of us would willingly travel and pay £16 to watch our U21's in action away ,all aware we will have not one player from our first choice starting line up in the squad for the match?
Not many of us that's for sure.

Hi Harry in October you said you had stopped posting on here, it's great to see your enthusiastic motivational posts are back, what is the cost for you £8 or so. Stick in the tap room with the other dinosaurs pal and let the rest of us look forward to what's ahead

It's a fringe squad - And that includes the new signings.
The match tickets are over-priced in my opinion as well as many others and this will have an affect on the following that Wigan will bring, regardless of what you say.
The Leigh owner/director(s) either know it's over-priced and are using the game for maximum possible gain (Don't blame them) or they can either keep trying to justify the prices despite having made a mistake.
My comments are constructive criticism to a club I want to see do well.

| Just looked at this year Wigans first team squad and these lads played against us last year and are now their first team and most played regular last season:_
Gelling
Thornley
Hughes
Logan Tompkins
Dom Crosby
Liam Farrell
Scott Taylor
Sam Powell
Dom Manfredi
I ve missed a couple off too.
These are playing first elsewhere (leigh)
Tom Spencer
Joe BUllock
Wigan have lost several players this season and their first team is full of new comers and youth players that have been moved up.
They never played Tompkins in preseason friendlies anyway and Charmley is injured so he couldnt play.
Im looking forward to it anyway and Friday, as Im assured Salford ARE DEFFO bringing their first team.
Where else could you get a decent night/day out for under £20 these days ?

Was there any need for that? No Really?
I was only stating my opinion that £16 to watch our U21's would put a lot of folk off.
Can I just say that I already have my ST purchased for this year , even though my health will dictate I will not be able to get to every match this year. I am pretty sure I have handed over more money in my lifetime to Leigh RLFC than you will have done. Last year I missed a mere handful of our matches regardless where we was playing
I continue to support the club both vocally and financially, pushing the club to everyone that I pass and from cradle to grave I will have Leigh RLFC running right through my blood until I draw my last breath.
I do not know who you are but thank you for telling me I am no longer welcome.
For your information I am extremely excited about the new dawn on the horizon.
