Well Done Wigan

Once you work it out, it is a very good deal as each ticket is effectively just £4.

However, you need an A level in maths to actually work it out!
It’s just too complex. Even the web site has a final sentence now added that starts, “To clarify, you must…”
I’m sorry, but if you need to clarify it’s too complicated to start with.

There’s also a footnote stating you can’t buy on the day, etc.

It’s only for ST holders to buy at these prices. If I want to bring a mate, or family members, I want them sitting with me. Not possible where my ST is and I assume it’s the same for other people too.

I’ll bet it doesn’t add more than 500.

Hate being negative and I hope I’m wrong, but I doubt it.

If you really want to get a big crowd then make it simple, starightforward and available upto kick off. £5 a ticket in the South Stand only. That’s it. Open to anyone.

As a great example of what’s possible, I turned up 10 minutes before kick off at the MK Dons v Leyton Orient a couple of weeks ago. Turns out it was family day and the cheapest ticket was £5 for me and £3 for my son. Most expensive was £9 and £5. Crowd was over 14,000 compared to average of about 9,000. That’s in league one. Normal prices are £20 to £26 and that’s for members. Oh, and there was no bleating from any of their ST holders either. They pay £230 to £400 a season.

As a season ticket holder I can bring 3 people to the game for £4 each

FFS – it works out at £4 a go what cant you twats gets your head round –
I cant do this, I cant do that, twats the lot of you – try selling this to Chelsea fans where a ticket is £48 a go – unbelievable you lot

I am loyal but this offer does not reward my loyalty as it claims !! However it is a good positive thing but could have been worded better ! I fully understood what the offer was but couldnt see how it rewarded me myself !

I agree Filmos, it doesnt “reward” us ST holders. As for my “loyal” comment, I was being sarcastic…don’t the eggmen claim to be the most loyal fans in the whole history of the universe, ever?

You can argue all you like about semantics, or grown men wanting to be ‘rewarded’ for supporting their club, I’ll be grabbing as many tickets as I can.

That’s not because I’ve been taken in by the marketing spiel, we all know the club would love to sell out week in, week out, enabling them to jack up the prices.

It’s because I want my nieces, and any Wiganer for that matter, to support and watch Latics, they’ll be better for it, the club will, and so will the town.

At a club like Latics most new supporters are introduced by a long time fan, if we can’t be bothered bringing along new fans to the club, no one else will, you may as well add them to the long list of armchair Utd/Liverpool fans!

well done to the club, last season i brought my mates lad when cheap tickets were on and my mate and his lad both got season tickets this season because he enjoyed it so much. Cant rememeber the game but honestly he enjoyed it! The only way to get long term support is to get them in in the 1st place.

It’s the only way the club are going to push on.

More supporters = more income = better squad (in theory).

Plus it’s always better to watch football when there’s a decent atmosphere.

Bubble could mean bubble n squeak which could be cockney rhyming slang for beak which is drugs for one’s nose I believe.[/quote]

Bubble is a drug (Legal).. but ti is NOT ‘beak’… Look it up… Mephadone I think. (Been all over paper about it taking over and being a ‘killer’ drug, though it is not yet illegalised and I don’t know why!)
