I am in the camp of IL has done more good than bad for Wigan. There is room for improvement yes but we are forgetting how much money this man has put in from his own pocket to cover financial losses the club has made over the years. You could argue that the losses are partially down to the club with things such as pathetic marketing, poor rugby to watch on the field, signings that don’t make fans excited, etc. we have had 4 grand final wins, 2 challenge cups and a world club Challenge in the last ten years. Look at the mess we were in when IL took over and if anyone would have told you we would win this over a 12 year period you would have laughed at them.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg



Quote: post "I know, I’m fine. I’m thinking of other people. Our attendances are low, some other poster said they wouldn’t pay £60 for their family to watch this dross and I’ve agreed with it. If a family of non-season ticket holding children want to come and watch a game as a one off, (the fair weather, arm chair or floating fans or new fans) some would be put off and do something else.

But then again it’s all down to marketing again.'"


You can get a group ticket if there are 10 or more of you, £18 adult, £8 junior.
If you know someone with a season ticket you can get six tickets for £36, (scrum voucher with your season ticket)

Reducing the prices to £40 for a family ticket would severely reduce revenues for the club,why would you buy a season ticket if pay on the day was so cheap?

Quote: Itchy Arsenal "Fans stop going when they don't like what the see or they find something better to do.
IL to increase gates has to improve the former which will assist in offsetting the latter.
The recent strategy of dull percentage play and lack of star quality plainly isn't working. Fans moaning on forums isn't driving down gates it's the standard of the product on offer.'"

Current thoughts - Mago out or get running up them plantations, get fit or get rid. Maybe a back up halfback, someone with a bit of experience on a short term deal. Big tall strong running second rower, like a McMeekin or Sironen type back rower.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_20333.gif

Another problem we face is we don’t make any money from food and drink when there’s a game on. So getting the fans in cheaply and hoping they get their fill inside and make money off them that way won’t work, we make the money from the ticket so reducing its cost affects us. So we’re snookered.

Like Itchy Arsenal says, they also need to improve the quality on the pitch too.

Which is one of the reasons why Lenagan wants to develop Robin Park Arena. Get the fans to go there pre and post match.

I do love the theory that fans having a moan impacts attendances,it simply doesn’t there is a lot of competing for the “casual “ fan to do with their hard earned cash and on current form there’s no chance of them walking up to the DW and handing money over.
