Re: Average home attendanc...

<t>The arrogance of a post that says, 'What have you ever done that's memorable?' is beyond belief. The story of a team that has risen from the Lancashire Combination and Cheshire Country Leagues, through alll four divisions to a top ten finish in the Premiership is unprecendented in British sport. ...

Re: Average home attendanc...

<t>The loyalty of Wigan rugby supporters in a nutshell. First time they get relegated (1980-81), average attendance - 4,744. Latics' attendance that season (in league divison four) - 6,701.<br/> <br/> Wigan RL's highest ever average, including period as all-conquerung 'world' champions - 14,680.<br/...

Re: Average home attendanc...

<t>5,000 to 10,000 were visiting supporters?! Chelsea brought 3,000 tops. The away end (North Stand) holds 5,000, end of story. Anyway, you should know that, seeing as Warrington and St Helens regularly fill it giving you your only crowds of the season that match Latics'.<br/> <br/> Warriors fans su...

Re: stewards jackets

<t>Um, you're starting to lose me now. There were 900 arrests but they weren't carried out by the police? What were they, citizens' arrests?<br/> <br/> And what's all this about no police at Latics matches? If that was the case Whelan wouldn't be seeing them in court for their ridicyulous £250,000....

Re: Average home attendanc...

<t>The 22,000 crowds against Man Utd, Chelsea and Liverpool this season were 4,000 higher than any the Warriors had on last season.<br/> <br/> The average of 20,000+ was 6,000 higher than any in Wigan RL's history.<br/> <br/> Now, you may well be right, that people want to come and see stars like He...

Re: stewards jackets

Sorry egg mon. Does that mean you believe the figures posted on rlfans.com rather than the the police's official statistics?

Re: Average home attendanc...

<t>To avoid embaraassment, it's best not to calculate average attendances so early in the season, especially when you've had one freakishly high one (thanks to the 5,000 visitors from Warrington).<br/> <br/> For the record, the last two home attendances were higher than two of Latics' home games thi...

Re: stewards jackets

<t>Probably so many to stop the Latics fans fighting among themselves. I read on rlfans that they had 900 arrests at their games last season. Scumbags <br/> <br/> Hmm, rlfans, eh? That sounds like a reliable source for info about football. 900 arrests, you say? That's funny when stats for arrests in...

Re: Well done mike

As fir the lad on the blocked thread saying that Latics give free tickets away in schools, I'm told that at St Peter's they have a six-inch wad of tickets to give away to kids for every Warriors home match.

Re: Well done mike

Wow. Sleuthing powers to rival the great Holmes.Yu must be so proud of yourself. But what's all this talk of getting me banned? On the Latics messageboard there's always a little banter between the two codes.
