When you were asking about why isnt the lower tier of the away stand open, if im right, I think its because they haven't got the required amount of stewards in that area to deal with fans in that area. Pretty stupid I know. Thanks for turning up in that number, you helped to make it a great day out. You did out number us.

It was a good day out, the weather was good again and despite some of the complaints the ground was better than last year. I hope the crusaders can get out of their current slump.

Last season and sundays game I parked in the Homebase carpark......free and no time constraints, plus pretty easy to get away from!!!!

I turned up at a similar time to see that queue, yet the front door into the pub was open anyway!

no queue at midday

Definitely more away fans than home fans...............






Wasn't until the 2nd half that I noticed Andy Gregory was sat in the row in front of me. He gave a speech in the bar afterwards, and spoke very highly of the boys, and Shaun Wane.

Definantly 3k+

Nobody takes away support like us unless it's a big game. Quality stuff! Couldn't believe it when they told me the away end was sold out! Those pictures don't show how many were in the home end as well.

What those pictures don't show is that there were 1000+ Wiganers in the stand you took the photo's from (I was sat on the front row of the upper section on the 20m line). A couple of hundred sweltering in the sun on the lower section, the rest behind me and to my left, right up to the half way line where you were.

Great support.

You were not the loud one sat with two young lads, white top?



Never shut up all game.

The away end is now a bit dated to say the least, bar and toilets bobbins, turnstiles didn't open until 2pm apparently shortage of turnstile operators, they knew how many were coming, the organisation needs to step up.
Oh and can they move the sun round.

It's just a shame the kop end is no longer used.... 3.5k Wiganers would have made one hell of an atmosphere on that terrace!

Was sat thinking that all game. Would have made them look worse though because both side stands would have been empty then as well as one end stand as those in the sides would probably have fit on the terraces.
