188 Bet use it for 'paying out' after a game. Not that I've ever known a bookie to pay out!

I was impressed by one aspect of the crowd, KR's shirt that would fit all there 67 billion fans, all at once

Wait a second...if you brought to Craven Park the amount of fans we brought to yours last night you would fill the temporary seated stand at the North end of our ground. However you are lucky to fill two sections of it when you and most other teams come.

So before you start saying we brought a poor following on a cold wet Friday night for a game that was on Sky you might want to get your own house in order first. As pointed out you had about 40 away fans the previous week and still got a bigger attendance.

I only wish Craven Park could fit 12.5k in it and do it regularly so to be disapointed about that amount is remarkable. But then to say we brought poor numbers is a very weak statement and unless you can sell more than 1500 tickets to come over to East Yorkshire on what will probably be a Sunday afternoon then I'd suggest you dont complain about our travelling support.

13415 last season but was it on sky?

Wiganers for you , ham fisted and tight grow up man, I could not go last night due to work commitments. Yes a job something if you have one you have to be thankfull for in the present climate. Although I am a passionate Warriors fan my priority is to put a roof above my Wife and kids heads and food on the table.So sometimes it ain`t as clear cut as you in your wisdom make out.

Johnnyf if you would take care to read my post correctley I was having a go at the folk who watch the game in the pub!I'm not having a go at people who have to work,I do have a job and I also work shifts my gripe is with the loyal supporters who never bother to go the game

Ned I hold my hands up I did jump the gun a bit, understand where you are coming from and yes i`ve I know certain people who rekon they are big fans but don`t even know the names of the stands even thought they are loyal supporters but there is people who post on here who are only to quick to give a quick dig, only night off and I have had a few pints

Fair enough johnny we all desrerve a bit of r&r on our days off

No such people exist.

Cam it was supposed to be ironic

I think the point people are making is that Rovers' support was 'poor' in comparison to previous years when it has been fantastic in numbers and noise. It was quite good compared to the numbers other clubs bring.

As for the comment about us not selling out your away stand, there is usually sections reserved for home fans, as per both games last season.

we always seem to take more than 1800 upto your end, as we do to any ground

Threads like this exist purley to massage the egos of the people who went to the game. There are zillions of reasons why people did not attend and each one of them is a personal reason.

It is always better when the stadium is full but ulimately who care if the attendance was down on last year?

For the record i was there, but i do not feel that that makes me "superior" to any of the lads i know who watched it on the telly or indeed missed it totaly because of other comitments.

all this crap about wiganers being tight fisted is a load of old tosh also. This is a working class town and a lot of people i know are struggling at the momment, this includes people who were on a high wage over the last few years.

it will pick up when the weather gets warmer, it always does.
