With crowds now around the 10000 mark pretty much every week, surely now is the time for the Warriors to make use of the Leigh sports village rather than the JJB?

Imagine the atmosphere last night in a 12000 capacity stadium, rather than 20 people jumping around with a drum at the back of the south stand trying to create some noise.

LSV would be a fortress for the Warriors. icon_cool.gif

Why are you taking it to heart? I was merely pointing out that it would surely make for a better atmosphere in a smaller venue rather than the over-sized JJB. Leave that to the soccer boys who pull in 17000+ every week.

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg

Soccer ???????...means nothing to real Wiganers, now if you mean people who live outside of Wigan and cant get tickets for real football teams, then your on the wrong site.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good - sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league - Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate - the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever - Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go - Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know - FIOS:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_39110.jpg



I would rather see us improve to be a top team again and then pack the JJB out every week.

icon_lol.gif Nice try. For the record our LOWEST league crowd of the year so far is 11670.

That crowd last night was our first sub 10000 crowd against a Super League side since 2005.

Have you though about playing at Northwich Victoria or Macclesfield or Altringham????

All those grounds hold around the 3k mark which should comfortably hold your home support and then you could moves games a gianst a Big club like Wigan or Saints or Wire to LSV yourselves when we bring more fans than the Home Supporters do!

Don't let the facts get in the way of a poor attempt at trolling.

FWIW i had to think long and hard about turning up myself last night as, lets face it, even though we are very very average at the moment salford are still easy beats so there is no real excitement there really.

Nice idea. On that basis Salford could save a bundle by playing at Folly Lane.
