A game Wigan fans have bought tickets for...I'm impressed.

heard today were closing in on 20,000 sold 1,500 just yesterday and today

If that happens I can see the Sky team picking up on the masses of Wigan walkers.

We're set up for it to be honest.

Fingers crossed we play well.

That's a gloomy thought, but not an unrealistic one given that Sky made great play of two Wigan fans leaving the Millennium Stadium early a couple of years ago.

TBH the way we've been playing recently, it'll probably still be close into the last 10 minutes.

Great crowd, great match - really looking forward to friday night now!

Great marketing idea from Wigan, again. I just wish the clubs who average a lot less would follow suit, as it's a shame theres only 3 clubs who average a five figure gate (Hull, Leeds, Wigan). I hope you do something similar when you play us (Hull) in your last home game as It's usually a good atmosphere when us two play, be it at the KC, or JJB (although we've not had much to shout about at your ground over the years). I'm sure we would bring a healthy following regardless of our league position, and it would be a great way to end the season. Anyway back to the rugby, I hope Leeds trounce you on friday , not a great fan on Leeds myself but the competition is tight and we need all the luck we can get!

Confirmed on the official site(at the bottom of the article on who's doing the entertainment) that we've now sold over 19,000.

If theres a decent walk up on the night from both Wigan and Leeds we could be looking at 22,000 imo which is fantastic.

Yeah looking good, we should at least break the 20,000 barrier which would be great anything over that would be fantastic, anybody know what the largest ever attendance is for a Wigan Leeds regular league game.

The best Superleague attendance v Leeds was in 2006 when 17,281 was the figure

Thnx for that Rogues, just show what a good job the whole club has done to build this game up, and of course are recent results certainly haven't done any harm in increasing the gate.

Its 18+ at headingley, shown on the official website 'big one stat attack'

It's been 21125 or whatever capacity use to be. Wish I could attend this game, i like the JJB. Hope you get over 22k. Magnificant job and hope for a tight gam with a nice Leeds win.
