Hope they do not do the same on Saturday if they lose!
The booing was disappointing. If tics players weren't making the effort, then you could understand but they did give it their all and didn't deserve to be booed off.
Suppose that puts a damper on for Saturday but at least they are guaranteed to be in Europe next year.
Even Dave Whelan was dismayed with the Latics effort and many Latics fans I spoke to today were dismayed at the arrogance of Di Santos who they described as displaying an obvious attitude of I am too good for this club.
Fans are entitled to boo, to cheer whatever as long as it is not racist/sexist etc etc.

I'm a Wiganer and proud of it. Whether we are playing rugby, football or tiddlywinks doesn't matter to me I'm shouting for my own. I hope they stuff City and maintain their Premier League standing.

Exactly SEFC but even those who just support Wigan RLFC and are not from Wigan should remember that if the Latics go down, our rent for the DW will go up and hurt our finances.

It could also result in a situation where if the Latic's were to go back where they use to be and getting far lower crowds, a change in the ownership of the DW as it could become a millstone around their necks, especially when Whelan is no longer at the helm to wipe off the debts.

Looks like the bandwagon jumping has now even spread to some of our supporters.
I'm not jumping on any bandwagon, I wont be going to Wembley and I only watch Latics very infrequently (once or twice a year), but as I said I am a Wiganer through and through and therefore I want the town and its people to succeed in everything they do.
