Why are you envious?
Anyone can support a team when it is winning, that takes no courage.
But to stand behind a team, to defend a team when it is down and really needs you,
that takes a lot of courage. #18thMan

If not.we are looking at a max of 6000 season ticket holders which is a worrying low number and would explain a fair bit of the potential cost cutting we see.

I know it won't be the exact same but Dr K stated Salford needed 5000 fans to break even on match day a few years ago.
Think it's a terrific achievement by so many of the Wigan fans to commit a big chunk of money in these uncertain times to the club.
The capacity is 6250 fans
So they finally answered you Josie? :D

I'm not having a go at those who haven't bought one, I'm just concerned it's a very low number
These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.

I give them the tickets as Christmas gifts, and they sit in them (unless I manage to get up, in which case I nick one back!) It is now 89 years since my aunt first went, and still going strong.

Step 3 Roadmap:

Outdoor seated events: 10,000 or 25% (whichever is lowest)

25,000 stadium = 6250

So it’ll be around that
This is what a friend on Twitter replied to my question.

Caboosegg my reply wasn’t directed at you and I didn’t think you was having a go.
