        They’d be fools to display their colours in that s4!t hole, but they have (yet again) sold their entire ticket allocation, despite it being on TV. Remind me how many times you sold all the larger allocation of tickets for an away game last year.

        Fact – The club didnt even have the confidence in their fans to ask for 2800 tickets at Stoke.

                For a quarter final of a major cup game??

                I’ll bet you we will take more to any of those teams if drawn in the quarters of the FA CUP.
                Lets talk like for like, pea brain. :roll:

                From Matlock to ManU
                What a journey!

                    And this kind of sums up what you and your ilk do when confronted with facts

                    I suggest you have a look at the size of the crowds in late 2006 Griff – in what was unquestionably the clubs’s darkest hour since the switch to summer rugby:

                    23 Jun 06 – Warrington (16103)
                    7 Jul 06 – Wakefield (13686)
                    14 Jul 06 – Salford (13630)
                    4 Aug 06 – Catalan (12647)
                    18 Aug 06 -Huddersfield (14092)
                    1 Sep 06 – Bradford (15830)
                    15 Sep 06 – Hull (16554)

                    Now, call me a cynic, but these crowds increased significantly from early in the season,

                    Total average attendance for Wigan Warriors season 2006 = 14445
                    Total average attendance for the above 7 games =14649

                    Wow – a whole 203 extra fans turned up to support Wigan Warriors in their hour of need :violin:

                    Let us again compare and contrast what happened when Wigan Athletic were last in danger of relegation:

                    Jan 25 FT Wigan Athletic 1-2 Aston Villa 16,442 Premier League
                    Feb 5 FT Wigan Athletic 4-3 Blackburn Rovers 18,567 Premier League
                    Feb 26 FT Wigan Athletic 0-4 Manchester United 18,140 Premier League
                    Mar 19 FT Wigan Athletic 2-1 Birmingham 16,421 Premier League
                    Apr 2 FT Wigan Athletic 0-0 Tottenham Hotspur 18,578 Premier League
                    Apr 30 FT Wigan Athletic 1-1 Everton 17,051 Premier League
                    May 15 FT Wigan Athletic 3-2 West Ham United 22,043 Premier League

                    Total average attendance for Wigan Athletic season 2006 = 16712
                    Total average attendance for the above 7 games =18177

                    An increase in average attendance of 1465, more than 7 times the Warriors equivalent

                    Youre not doing very well here mutty :angry-banghead:

                        A little story from the weekend seems to have gonr under the radar a mass brawl in Blackpool involving Lobbies and Halifax supporters tut tut

                        Must be a warm up for the cup matches this weekend

                          I don’t have a program to hand, but I bet the home attendance was never above 14000 for any of them games. That’s the bit everyone seems to forget in this ‘we get more fans than you, my dad’s bigger than you’ crap.

                          A rugby attendance of 13095 against Wakefield last week consisted of 105 Wakefield fans. That’s 12990 home supporters. An attendance of 18,140 against Man Utd will consist of AT LEAST 4500 Man Utd fans leaving a maximum number of Wigan fans of 13640.

                          Now you and I know that there will have been Man Utd fans in the home ends, but that’s by the by. As I’ve said on this board, RLFANS, facebook, twitter and during numerous other arguments, BOTH sides average around the SAME number of HOME supporters. That being somewhere between 13000 and 14000.

                            I suspect this is the point where someone will remind us all that if you travel to a rugby match as a home supporter from outside a 5 mile radius of the DW, then you shouldnt count towards the crowd figure.
