I think it is going over his head !

There's going to be 20,000 at this one apparently.

Once at the game the groups will enjoy a St George’s Day themed build up to the kick off at 8.00pm. (Warriors Website)



At kick off with the emphasis on non-english players for the pieaters all the : hard work destroys the credibility of St Georges Day

The games v Harlequins are generally how I described it but people will turn up regardless if a ticket is for free just to watch the ''mighty Wigan RL''. Hopefully they'd appreciate be encouraged to pay should a bigger & more appealing fixture crop up.







Yeah, I was there. Oh well, we're still top of the league.

Do you share the belief of a 20k+ crowd?

If the wigan lad would stop having a pop he might get more apreciation. Yet again a club, when faced with the prospect of few visiting fans, decided to do something about it. Last year was Heinz (IIRC) and this year they are again trying to ensure that they use the space in the stands to showcase their matchday experience......

Good idea and good luck to them......IIRC last years game v Quins was their second biggest gte of the season. Shows what can be done when you PLAN AHEAD

It depends who they offer tickets to and how many.



If they go all out and offer a big amount to a number of largish companies in the North West then why not? It is achievable, but unlikely.

This thread was started to have a pop at Wigan.

Sorry but I'm being brutally honest.







It was third biggest behing Saints and Leeds. Good going though.

Kiwis don't do unlimited broadband so I could't go back and check...my bad.







split hairs all you like......my point was valid! Clubs that see the fixture list and act to do something to get more fans in v Quins/Cats/Welsh??? are the ones who gain in the end. Those that don't, simply point the finger come licence time and moan about London....

Wigan are to be applauded for their foresight....ie...Looking at the problem EARLY and finding a solution.....hardly rocket surgery is it

Having a pop at the Pies is always popular on here for historic reasons but I agree with Gutters, it sounds like good marketing and if it works it is to be applauded. However, I think I could get people to watch a winning Wigan team that are top of the table, in London it is a completely different matter. We could win SL and WCC and the Standard would still ignore us.

Nah, they'd come crawling to us.

Of course Wigan are going to promote the hell out of a Quins visit. IL knows us better than any other owner and even though it is away, a big crowd (as written earlier the third biggest of the season) makes us look more appealing to anyone looking to by cheaply into a sports team and gets IL a better chance of getting rid of us.

I do wonder why other teams don't do what Wigan are doing when we roll into town.
