With guest likeWigan Athletic manager Roberto Martinez, past players like Tommy Gore, Noel Ward, Matt Jackson and Mike Flyn, Friday night is sure to be a great one for Latics fans, but you need to get a ticket quick.

Tickets are selling fast for this Friday’s “Seventh Heaven” Event and the club are urging supporters to buy in advance as with fewer than 100 tickets left, entry on the night cannot be guaranteed.

Roberto Martinez is set for Q&A with fans and there will also be personal appearances from many former players who will also face a grilling. With Micky Worswick and Kenny Morris, Noel Ward and Tommy Gore, Neill Rimmer, Mike Flynn and Matt Jackson all confirming their attendance for Friday’s spectacular there will be past Wigan Athletic stars from the last four decades taking part in the proceedings.

Comedian Mike Maguire offers an act with a twist – and who are we to spoil the surprise – but will certainly have the audience in stitches and the night will be completed with the unofficial Wigan Athletic band, The Empty Seats taking to the stage and blasting out their existing repertoire of Latics themed songs along with some new and exciting material.

Aside from all that the emphasis is on a fun night where Latics fans can get together and celebrate the past and the future of the club and also help with fundraising for The Anthony Ramsdale Appeal. The admission fee for this event is ONLY £5, which also includes your half time pie and programme. There will also be a raffle for some outstanding prizes including a signed caricature of the squad, hospitality tickets for 2 people for the opening day clash with Norwich City and other superb prizes.

Numbers for this event are restricted and there are only a limited number of tickets available. As stated above, these may not be available on the night so you are strongly advised to buy in advance.
