Just got back home from the match & what a game it was. From 1 through to 17 the team played so well.
Once we learnt to just play our set of six out instead of attempting the "Miracle Offload" on the first tackle, we looked pretty much in control. This was despite the best efforts of the Officials to give the game to Wigan. I can thankfully say this without it sounding like "Sour Grapes" as we won the match.
Sorry Micky B but for the last 2 games the officials have been very poor.
Talking to the players after the game, they seem so tight & full of belief for the rest of the season.

Agreed, any idea how many at Skolars yesterday?

Sorry to butt in but where is the “admission” from Warrington that they spent a fortune?
The club have certainly put a big effort into marketing, but I can’t see that editing clips together for a video, or getting a guy in a green gimp suit, or a wolf mascot to turn up at Saints in a mac will have cost that much.
Effort and imagination on a focussed audience is what we are seeing this year. Posters in Polish being another example.

Hook, apparently because it’s you and wigan the fact you had to do any marketing and the fact you didn’t have to turn folk away at the gates, Even though it was a fri night and on TV was evidence that the game is in a poor state!

I was genuinely interested in the “cost” issue.
It is true that a game against Wigan shouldn’t need marketing, but it was fairly obvious that Wigan wouldn’t be bringing many so an ideal time to push the game to get some locals in who wouldn’t normally attend.
Warrington have definitely stepped up on the marketing front this season and I suspect this is to generate awareness and interest in general not just in relation to a specific match.
The attendance for our home match against the Broncos will be a good test as to how effective it has been so far.
Ps as this is a Broncos forum, well done on the results so far, I have always viewed a strong London presence as essential, hopefully the results start to generate bigger crowds.

Pps I think the crowd was a reflection of the poor state Wigan find themselves in whether that is a reflection of the strength of the game in general is another question!
