Just seen trys at half time on SSN dont look like there is maant watching the PPH’s tonight :o
Is that the stand with all the flags mutty ?
Maybe that was because the first half tries were scored in front of the 500 or so visitors.12.500 :?

You really let yourself down sometimes mutty. Saw some of this game in the pub and having seen several hundred football games at the DW and sitting right up near the away end I can tell you that if it was a football crowd, the next programmee would have said there were around 1,500 in there. I know what 500 looks like because that’s what FUlham bring and there was three or four times that in there. Even one of the rugby lads who came in the pub after the game said 1,500 – a decent one not one of your bitter Latics-hating cyber warriors. I presume the 12,000 Wiganers, sorry 8,000 when you take the out of towners out were all under the stand then?
Still if lying makes you feel better, let’s face it the rugby have been at it for years e.g. they count all season tickets as being in attendance whether they turn up or not. Latics get shit about their crowds from the likes of you but at least they are truthful about them.
Let’s get a couple of points straight –
a/ The pitch did not lose us any points tonight.
b/ The pitch was showing signs of damage before the rugby season started.
That being said, let’s not persist with the myth football does more damage to the pitch than the rugby, the pitch was an absolute disgrace tonight, it wouldn’t be acceptable in League 2, nevermind the Premiership.
It’s now time to demand no rugby games are played at he DW Stadium until the football season ends.

I used to think football causes more/no less damage than rugby but I no longer do so after watching that Warriors game last Friday.
Players getting back to their feet and that ridiculous play the ball farce causes more divotage* than, say, a slide tackle in football.
* made-up word, but i like it.
