I thought Toulouse would be easier to get to from Manchester. Looks like the only places you can get non stop flights are the London airports

You are talking about the seventies, when the club was in a terrible situation under the then ten man board of Directors which included Baxendale, Broome and Gostellow and were signing low cost players like Les Bolton, Cliff Sayer, Peter Smethurst from Swinton who were in a even more terrible state than Wigan.

The lowest crowd I remember at that time was around 2,500, which I recall was possibly against Batley, but like you have intimated, there were others in the 2,500 to 3,000 bracket as the crowds decline and the club was relegated.

The lowest attendance since the start of the 1980's when the gang of four had just taken over the club was a crowd of 3,146 against Dewsbury in the 1980/81 season which lasted for a long while until the more recent seasons in non season ticket games which have seen crowds as low as 5000/6000.

Hopefully, the club will never fall again to the level it did in the seventies!

True, but Pieman's statement didn't specify which year (or decade), which competition, or even whether Wigan were at home. You seem to have made assumptions.

Sometimes a grammar school education doesnt help...

I hope your spelling of "Grammer" was ironic...

Can you count the number of times you have been proven wrong with your not so factual statements with that education? It's happening a lot recently. You are a poor WUM, Curry Steph does it better.

You of course, are never wrong!
