According to Granada Reports `over a thousand` was in the town today to see Worriors homecoming.
I happened to be in town today and I would say it was nearer 500, it was bloody desperate tbf.
Compare that to the 30,000 that welcomed Latics home, surely we can put this `rugby town` shit to bed once and for all.

27 August 2013 at 2:02 pm #119924I think that you and your mate Muttywhitedog should get a room and bum each other senseless and maybe that will have some sort of cathartic effect and eventually put an end to this banal topic !

27 August 2013 at 6:17 pm #119946Its not a `banal` topic,its a topic that is trotted out by the national media on a regular basis.
Wigan Athletic get a shit deal from the national media reguarding crowds,and the clueless wankers who write that shit need exposing.
Rugby League is a minority sport in Wigan these days,whether you like it or not.

I wouldn’t go as far as minority sport but you’re quite correct there were more people at the WAFC homecoming than the WRLFC one. How many of the alledged 30,000 were WAFC fans is debateable considering that that is almost twice our average but thats another question for another day. Maybe some of the Mancs and Scousers in the town who never watch their side jumped on the bandwagon for a day or two but I don’t really care.
The town of Wigan might be a rugby town, then again it might be a football town. It could quite easily even be a fishing or darts town. One thing it definitely is though is the home of the 2013 FA Cup and Challenge Cup winners.

But a fair percentage of them choose to watch other clubs than Wigan Athletic. Even more so now you are hosting Doncaster & Yeovil rather than Man Utd and Liverpool.
