A crowd of 12,656 on Friday will mean we have the highest average attendance in the league.

We have sold over 13400 tickets already.

WE ARE THE BEST SUPPORTED TEAM IN THE LAND!!!

According to the E-ticketing on the website we've sold 13,428 tickets. I presume this doesn't take into account any away support from Bradford.

I would expect 14,500 to be in attendance.

It is a proud achievement to be officially the best supported club in RL. Our marketing team have done an excellent job.

Still it counts for nothing if we don't win the Grand Final. icon_wink.gif

After the dark days of 2006, we will take every bit of success we can get.

I'd like to take this opportunity to thank myself for attending all home games this season.

Havnt missed a game at home either.

Have been known to be a category C fan when it comes to some of the away games. May not always be there in body but always in spirit

It was quite ironic that few years ago, the worse we seemed to get, the higher the attendances we got! and yet they stick knock us with the 'Wigan walk'!!!!

I mean look at Bradford this year!

The myth of the 'Wigan Walk' was invented by letter writers to the Rugby Leaguer back in the dark days of the late 80s and early 90s (dark days for everyone but Wigan, that is), when there seemed to be no way for anyone else to get even with us. Much like the "you were the only fully professional team in the league, and that's why you won everything" nonsense. Both were complete lies, but both of have lasted until modern times because those who perpetrate them, deep down, are still petrified of us.

Don't forget my personal favourites: You bought all the best players just so the other teams didn't have them, even if it meant not selecting them. And the star comedy turn, You got yourself into financial trouble from paying out too much wages.

Yes. I remember a heated debate at the Wigan Beer Festival once, when a Leigh fan assured me that Wigan had only won everything in the 80s and 90s because they'd signed the entire Austrlian team.

Now that we've reclaimed the best supported RL side tag we need to target best supported rugby club in the UK. I think Leicester are top dogs (17K) and London Irish & Quins might also be on 16K apiece

Congrats - great to see big crowds at DW and even better that they are making the latics look humiliatingly small by comparison.
