If it is close to 20k then nothing to worry about. That aint too bad a figure for a semi.
No bad press is a positive step for our little club me thinks?We’ve nothing to worry about anyway.
If we win, then who cares how many we took?
Doubt there’ll be many off here crying themselves to sleep Saturday night thinking, “Yes we’re in the final, but we only took 15,000… waaaah” :( :( :(
And what if we did take LOADS?
Do you think the media & football world will love us all of a sudden..?
Will the bad press disappear?They’d just change their jibes from “Wigan have no fans” to “Look at all these glory hunting day trippers in the Wigan end. Where are they at their home games?! LOL”.
We can’t win either way – that’s the way it is.We’re Wigan, bad press/feeling comes our way and we laugh it off.. surely you’re used to it by now?
Stop worrying about the f*cking crowd and focus on what’s important – THE RESULT.[/quote]
Who’s worrying about crowds? My comment is that 20k fans is ok.

That’s what I was responding to.
Well, that and the “bad press” comment.

You read it wrong then. I’ve not said i am worried about our crowd but that the figures mentioned by others on here if true, were poor. But they were way off the mark.
As for the bad press comment, it has already started has it not. Not bothered about that either, i just knew what was around the corner.You read it wrong then.

Aimed more at the few posting on here who seem to be obsessed with the numbers we’re taking.
Your post just happened to be the first I saw that mentioned the crowd, after I’d decided I was going to let off some steam :)Regarding the bad press, yes it has started – but the point I’m trying to make is.. who’s bothered?
You’re obviously not, as you state – so why mention it at all? ;)No bad press is a positive step for our little club me thinks?
You’re right, it’s not positive at all.. but we’ve never let it affect us in the past, so why start now?
I know what you’re saying though. A lot of our fans STILL let it get to them – amazes me.These “same old, same old” negative, bullshit stories should be like water off a duck’s back to all Wigan players/fans/staff alike.
We’re the media scapegoat.. the easy target – the team they all love to hate.
F*ck ’em!

As you rightly say it was mentioned a fair bit on here so thought i’d put me bit in too…
To be honest i’m sick to death of all the talk of ticket sales. I’m sure i heard talk sport (alan brazil) say we had only sold about 15k this morning? But then one of the lads at works showed me the sky website this morning where it said 22k??? I am just looking forward to Saturday now :woohoo:

Ye there’s all sorts of garbage flying around.
On Twitter yesterday, there were football fans nationwide starting up all kinds of bullsh*t rumours!
Including 1 Bristol City fan (what the f*ck has it got to do with them..) claiming that we’d sold 5,000 :lol:
It’s just the same old, same old really – some clown misinterprets a “news” story, the next thing every man and his dog has jumped on it.
Chinese Whispers then ensues, where the initial misinterpretation of 10,000 seems to drop by a 1,000 every minute or so… I think the “5,000 tweet” was the lowest number I saw it get to.
Just have to laugh it off. As I say, we’re just an easy target for everyone – leave them to it!
