According to the WEP SKY won't feature a live Wigan game for the first 4 weeks of the season. Has anyone spared a thought for all armchair supporters/pub viewers whose (lack of) support these past few years has been amazing. Perhaps some crisis group could be set up to aid such people. Lottery funding could be sought in an attempt to transport them (with armchair if necessary) to the actual games.
Thrilled, from Swinley
NO SKY TV FOR 4 WEEKS

Not a chance Dave
Theres no chance of them coming to the early matches. These people are lost to the club IMO.
On a side issue, the clubs season ticket pricing for kids is all wrong too. Its all very well giving a £28 ticket to kids in the South Stand but what about the others too? I wont be sitting in the South Stand to take my 5 year old to matches as I hate it behind the posts.
I wouldnt mind if the other stands were likely to be full....but they arent. Lads like mine are the clubs future yet the club doesnt give a monkeys. Incidently its £130 for a season ticket for him sitting next to me.Farcical and I probably wont take him.

chance would be a fine thing
Some of us have little option but to watch our team on the box given that for some getting to Wigan involves a 10 hour 540 mile round trip!
So personally I'm gutted !!

That's fair enough. I'm having a pop at those who live 5 minutes from the ground.

Swelling the gate
Those who need to come in their armchair can phone in advance of the game to: 0800 INEEDANARMCHAIRTRACK .
The rest of us, kid in tow, can use the regular turnstile. I wouldnt miss a game even if it means bringing my little turncoat backstabber saints supporter of a son and my side swapping husband too .... with me ( I sometimes wonder if he is my son)

Armchair Removal Service
I live 100 miles away from Wigan most of the year and right now I'm living in the Arabian Gulf, but I'll make sure I get to the games. So if anyone in the more immediate area wants a hand to get out of thier armchair whilst I'm passing let me know. Your voices are much more need by the team from the terraces rather than shouting at the TV.
