Speaking of "if I'd paid for it", many thanks to the Wigan fan who gave me a spare complimentary ticket as I walked up The Den ticket office ready to buy one.

Made a good start to the afternoon.

And yeah, Williams' pass! The lad really has got a touch of class, hasn't he?

There were 10 sat next to me who were new to watching a live game. They were either impressed or upset by the impact of some of the collisions !

In front there were 4 milwall fans.

On the train in from East Croydon a number of passengers I saw who were not obvious RL fans turned up at the game, so just on my limited view I saw a pretty good percentage on non traditional attendees.

Hardly comparable really is it, when a large proportion of Wigan fans didn't need to pay for their ticket and a good number of them also got free travel. For a lot of people it was cheaper than going to Saints or Warrington. What would the attendance have been if everyone had to pay for a ticket and make their own way down there?

Was he a handsome looking fella in a leather biker jacket and Wigan top?

Handsome . I wasn't me then lol
