Quote: sergeant pepper "I can't believe that anyone would think the aesthetics don't matter? If they didn't, then why are Latics changing the seats and why do clubs spend millions on getting them right at other clubs.
They play a huge part in creating an atmosphere and making home feel like home.
On top of that, it's a slap in the face for us imo.
Not a pop at you, but personally I'm sick of all this "get over it" attitude from our fans when it comes to stuff like this.'"
I get what your saying but the colour of a seat doesn’t change whether I’m going or not. The seats, other than white, have never been in our colours anyway. So why would that change bother anyone now?
I’m frustrated more than anything that a faux rivalry and a faux hatred is continuing and has been fuelled by something as simple as a seat colour. When I go to the match the colour of the plastic my backside is going to warm is the last thing on my mind. So much so that it’s never crossed my mind in 20years or so of going to the DW to watch us. I don’t see why I should, or anyone should, now be bothered about it?
Fans from both sides with chips on their shoulders continue bashing out the same old boring lines, and for what? What does it gain? A few likes on Twitter? Beyond pathetic IMO.
As I said, my opinion is that we should unite behind the banner of Wigan. The greatest town in the UK whether that be represented in football, RL, RU or tiddlywinks.
