ATEOTD we can scoot over this as much as we want BUT simply IMO Hudds support yesterday was pathetic!

Cheap tickets, 2nd vs 3rd and a reasonable KO time on a Saturday means they should have brought twice as many as they did.

The big one this year, IMO of course, was wasted on Hudds. Hull KR & Leeds would have been a better options at getting a potential 22k crowd. I even think Cas would have brought more on a Wed night.

Your right, we've had opposition supporters before swear blind that they have brought thousands more, until they have viewed the match footage, being stuck in the middle of the upper middle section which is packed does give an impression that there is a good following.

Like I said earlier, the 'Big One 4' HAS to be Widnes. It will be a cracker!!

I think you could be right! Think it could depend when the fixtures fall though. Haven't all the big one games been in July?

Or do you think its something Wigan would talk to the RFL beforehand to get the right fixture at the right time?

Just realised were still In June June/July I meant to say!

Think it will depend on the time of the game, all the Big ones have been in June/July so far giving the marketing team time to promote it. EG if we got Widnes as our first home game of the season then I think that would be a no go. Would be the perfect match though! I'd love to see it against Cas aswell, i reckon they would bring a decent following.

Yeah, maybe this would be the only reason not to have it as The Big One.
No doubt it would be a Round 2 game due to the Millenium Magic match, again we could achieve 20K if promoted right (by both clubs).

we bring 2/300 and it's "pathetic"
we bring 1000 and it's "pathetic"

damned if we do,
damned if we don't

anyway fans dont win games, teams do, and your team were a million miles better than ours yesterday, well done on the win, fully deserved.

oh and pieman, wigan rlfc have NEVER filled the south stand at the galpharm, last year you had just short of 2300 IIRC.

if you say so fella

so just what numbers have to travel to wigan for our support to not be pathetic?

ATEOTD You brought more than you usually do, well done. I hope to see more of you next year, then the year after that etc. Miracles dont happen over night and im sure if you carry on challenging in the top four then your support will gradually increase.

minimum 1500 when they are discounted....

Duly noted

And when there not discounted?

has to be over 1k all the time....for a top flight pro sport.

Thats screwed half the league then

Yourselves included not that long ago
