The queues outside the east stand were unbelievable but sure I noticed closed turn styles that were opened swiftly afterwards.
The two ticket deal is all well and good if the logistics are in place but I feel they aren’t at present.
Another moan of mine is the queues for food and drink , the demand for this is massive but again I saw serving areas empty ???
I first sipped my pint as the second half commenced and missed the second goal as did many others.
I’m not sure if they have charge of the catering but if they are or when they get it back then have a look at this area of the business because from what I saw many many supporters want and require this service.
Get more serving areas built around the place.
that said a good performance yesterday and hopefully some new season tickets will be sold on the back of it.

I seem to remember a game at home at the end of the 1995-96 season against Northampton Town.
Whelan had backed the then manager John Deehan very heavily in the transfer market and expectations were starting to rise.
Lost narrowly 2-1 and failed to make the play offs by a very narrow margin.
My main memory of this was after the game when a WIGAN RL fan was stood on his gate gloating at the very silent crowd as it passed his house near the ground.
He made then made a daft comment which was responded to very sharply with “ at least we’re not f*****g bankrupt” at which point the Rugby man beat a fast retreat as the grog was making moves to fill him in.

Worst performance this season!
World beaters Fleetwood with the non league standard ground made to look like Real Madrid , they must have thought it was Christmas again with all the gifts provided.
Lack of effort and fight , joke of a performance and fans should be refunded !

I saw the altercation at the bridge and could see fists flying about and agree not the sort of thing that will fill our ground with families and kids and the south stand looked very spartan last night.
I thought the policing was abysmal last night compared to recent encounters with Bolton though , not sure of the sense of allowing their supporters to converge at the bridge after the game with obvious results.

The home performances have been shocking lately and I’m struggling to see this bunch beating Bolton this Tuesday.
The first half against Cheltenham was one of the flattest and worst performances I have seen from ANY Latics team for many many years , so bad I almost left at half time.
Not sure why they play so badly at home and without effort or intensity.
Tuesday would have been the Sort of game for Lang and Wyke both experienced players but both no longer here and they always played really well against Bolton.
A draw I’d the very best hope for me.

Was like the Alamo near the end of that game but the lads did well to keep them out.
A major thing for any manager is whether the team gives their all and they certainly did that yesterday.
Onto Cheltenham this Friday and then Bolton and knowing this Latics team we can guess which game they will probably win out of those two.
