Quote: Dave T "I made no reference whatsoever to whether Wigan could sell out the West Stand. Why do you need me to answer an obvious question, you aren't stupid (are you?). My involvement in this discussion was around you stating that we should have given yuou 3k tickets,just in case you may sell them.
The quote you highlight from Slim was actually right, surely you could do better, although from reading your posts, I suspect you actually can't!'"
Dave, let me just get some crossed wires (Forgive the Pun) straightened here.
MY 1 & only point in all of this was aimed at SLIM, not you or anyone else.
SLIM came on here and said " "yeh, right, i stand in the west stand every home match, last year you couldn't fill it, and this year you probably won't! some realism is required here me thinks! "
Now I see that as slightly inflamatory especially with the
at the end.
I was simply pointing out that it is impossible for Wigan to seel out the West Stand as the very same tickets go on sale to the Wire fans before they go on general sale at Wigan.
Nothing more, nothing less.
Now then, if I have misinterpreted the Jest of his comment,I apologise.
However the 2 x replies from SLIM confirms my 1st impression, he had no intention of coming on here without having a Dig at Wigan Fans Hence the
""yeh, right, i stand in the west stand every home match, last year you couldn't fill it, and this year you probably won't! some realism is required here me thinks! "
"
And as soon as someone pointed out that it is impossible for us to sell the out the stand if we aren't actually given all the tickets in the 1st place there are 2 x replies from SLIM with at least 1/2 dozen insults thrown in!
Dave, your responses were spot on and at no point did I disagree, I only asked was I right in saying that it is impossible for us to sell out a full allocation of a stand when we aren't given ALL of that allocation in the 1st place.
It was someone else (Nogga) who said they shouldn't be selling them to Wire fans just yet, I was respponding to a Barbed comment from SLIM that we Never,Will probably ever etc etc by pointing out that unless we are given then we'll never know?
With regards to the 500-600 Wire fans attending the JJB then I know that isn't true, but someone bit hook line & Sinker.
That is exactly what I was trying to do by pointing out that if someone (Not You) comes on Having a sly little dig & they aren't right in what they're saying they'e going to get a bit back.
Now Dave, as for the stupid remark, I'll ignore it as I believe were at cross purposes here.
I have read countless posts of yours on both sites and the vast majority have been Spot on as far as I have seen in the past.
That's why when You asked me the question I tried to reply back with a concise explanation of why IMHO believe SLIM was wrong with his original comments.
I totally agree that we shouldn't be given all the tickets, but then don't come on having a go at us for not selling it out? Do you agree?
