Brilliant should be a fantastic atmosphere. Been a bit dull as of recent weeks so let's try and change that this week.

Really looking forward to this

Looks like this is gathering momentum rather quickly. I need to get a couple of tickets for friends and was going to leave it later in the week before I went down to the ticket office. I think I should go as quickly as I can.

Hope the team can make it worth while for the fans. When was the last time we won watched a 20K+ crowd? Was it back end of the season a couple of years ago against Saints?

I think it shows the latent support the club has in the town and if we can get a consistent, exciting and winning team our average attendances may well get close to ILs target of 20K.

Can't wait for that to happen

I have just posted on my Facebook page information about friday night...

Copy this into your status and hopefully a few more might turn up.

Wigan Warriors play Leeds this Friday in what has been described as "The big ONE".. Its a great chance at only £10 for adults and £5 for children to take in this great event between two of the biggest sides in the game. It promises to be a classic.... you can walk up on Friday evening, kick off 8pm or get your tickets at the wigan ticket office.... Miss it... Miss out!!!! If you want any more info... just ask..

I am going to try and post this and similiar messages every day up until game day.... the more the merrier...

I am a believer that it is very difficult for your average "joe bloggs" on the street to actually decide to attend a sporting occasion if they have previously never been, whether its rugby, football, cricket etc etc... I think if Friday fulfills its potential match wise... I am sure that a few may become fully fledged supporters and boost the attendance figures in the future... Maybe this would have been a good time to anounce a special "end of season" ticket price for the remaining games two games, like the two games for £25 wakefield were doing V's Wigan.. therefore giving these new speccys an oportunity to get more games under their belt and probably achieve a better conversion rate to regular supporters, especially as these fixtures are against warrington and hull respectively.

Just tried to get my daughter a ticket in the South Stand & the website came back with an error, even though it's showing as tickets available. Does anybody know whether the SS has sold out - or is it just the site playing up??

The ticketing service on the web is not ultra reliable - I would give the ticket office a ring in the morning to find out.

Cheers - did notice it was down for 'maintenance' yesterday when I tried

Still some left for the South - if you're having problems with the online service then the best way to check immediately is to go on 'My Account' and then 'View Booking History' to see if your purchase has gone through or not

ill go for a crowd of 18,345

There is going to be a crowd of 20k+ for this game whether there is or isnt.

Is it £10 and £5 on the gate?

If so and the weather is decent we could be looking at a very healthy crowd.

Rain forecast, lets hope it eases up from mid afternoon.

It is.

I think this is a massive result for the game in general. Wigan, one of the best supported teams in the league are not resting on their Laurels, but instead, doing all they can to fill their ground. I will have a pop at the Goods for many things, but this is to be applauded and regardless of who is in charge of the Marketing, this all points to IL trying to get his home town team back to the top of the pile. I only wish he hadn't totally abandoned us in London (apart from his cash) and had kept a certain amount of "hands on activity" going....we might be trying stuff like this as well.
Well done to all concerned!
