It is a good business idea, but how many of these people who were given the tickets for free by Heinz will go to the next home game. Not many you will be lucky to get 57 if they have to pay.

NOOOO!!!!!!!!!! they were paid for!!!!!!!!!

Lets stop this nonsense and get to the game....COME ON WIGAN!!!!!

sometimes though people who have never been see it for the 1st time and go again if you grab say only 57 peoples attention
they might have a family which could then be potentially 171 new people off one promotional.

Are you an accountant...

We can never know...but it might just get some to start attending the games... specualte to acumulate..

quite true but the 57 was only a link to heinz. They will be lucky to get that many but good luck to them for the idea.

The way wigan fans say they are our cup final really winds me up. It makes it sound as though they think they are a challenge to us, when really we already know over the past few years, and more importantly at this moment in time that we are better than them so wigan is just a normal game. What they should be saying, and the few normal wigan fans out there are thinking, is that there embarrassed because there 80 minutes away from a possible wembley appearance and there ticket allocation is getting lower and lower because there fans haven't bought tickets for it.

Hence the reason for saying it, you plank.

if its a normal game and it doesnt matter more than any of the others , then why are you the wigan message board?

Wire are better than Wigan
Wigan are better than Wire

at the end of the day It's only Saints and Leeds winning things of late

so really it's like arguing about what shape of kidney stone hurts the least to pee out.

Pointless

who by?

plenty time for me yet....im only 10 minutes away when theres no traffic

Funny thing is even during our lean times of the past 10+ years we've still won a couple of trophies that Wire could only dream of and have finished above you in nearly every season.

Our bad years are getting to final eliminators and semi finals whereas Wires good years have been beating Wigan in the odd meaningless league game and finishing 4th-8th.

These are facts.

Dont care if Wigan won every trophy going in the past...because thats what it is, the past, its all about the future trophies, and that starts at the halton stadium....bring it on.

so you got nothing better to do than wind up other fans? you plank

im sure you'l find wigan fans on the wire forum most of the time, so explain that? and i actually came on here to see if there were any official numbers of tickets you have sold, to see what the attendance is shaping up to be. hence why i came on a ticket thread. question answered?

go for it........

LIVING ON THE EDGE?

Thirteen pages of crap, tbh. Does it really matter how many fans go to a game?
In future years, people will say, "do you remember the Challenge Cup final of 2009?" They won't be counting the fans at a semi final.

Nope.

not quite,saints is our cup final dont you know?

wigan is an almost nailed on 2 points for us now

And Saints is nailed on for them. What is it? 1 win in 40?

dont care how many tickets we sell, got mine the day they went on sale! id much rather take the win than take the most fans award
