Absolutely brilliant stuff, congrats all round.

Hopefully in 5 years or so, these sorts of announcements will be heard across 4 or 5 clubs.

Good to hear that. Should be a great atmosphere. Hopefully I'll get to a few more games this year.

Whoever is not happy about more fans turning up should go an support Latics, pathetic attitude to have. This is great news for the club!

great news for the club cant wait for our first home game

All fans should be welcome, no matter how many, how few or which games they go to.

Only in Wigan.

It maybe that the extra ST holders this year were regular walk-up fans anyway thus not increasing the att THAT much, id say if we have a season like last then our average att will be around the 16-16.6K thus increasing the average by around 1K.

Great stuff

As a new season ticket holder I would have had one last year had I not been living in Germany, and before then if I had had the money.

well done wigan, with wigan now back as the top team and playing really good rugby could we see crowds of 16/17k plus crowds

Great to continue the upward trend - the club has been going in the right direction in this department since all the way back to 2003. Hopefully we may even be able to break 11k for the first time.

What you couldn't just fly in for home matches?

We were getting those crowds in 2006 when we were cack!!

There was a time when I got my first season ticket, that was probably about 1986 and I've had one ever since, welcome them with open arms and if you're lucky they'll stay, make them feel unwelcome and your future starts to look a little less rosy.

Good decision to all the extra season ticket holders! I'll be getting the girlfriend a half one when the time comes as she cannot be coaxed out until the sun is a bit higher in the sky.

Welcome to the DW those who got a S.T. Hopefully will be a winning season for all the newbies to celebrate.
