The school trip of around 20 or so seemed to enjoy themselves, hope they get back to their special school safe tonight.

tihnk it was a shocking turnout to be playing a prem team and only 3000 show up is pretty shit.
that im afraid is why the club will never go places the crowds dont turn up so i.o.r dont get any revenue in.

An increased attendance on our last home game in a competition where gates are unfortunately traditionally low nowadays against a Premier League team in all but name but without the tradition to bring out the floating fans. Add in money being tight for a lot of people at the moment and an attractive home league fixture coming up this weekend that some people will have had to choose either / or then I don't think the attendance is that bad.

I just guess that your glass is half empty. :wink:

Wigan are very good Championship team, so a lot of credit goes to their chairman and past managers for keeping them in the Premiership.

They are not a big draw, not even in Wigan - so the crowd was about right in the circumstances.

No you'd need some sort of massive natural disaster or miracle to fill the fooking Arena.

The North Pole has better prospects of ever being full.
