What changes do we need to make for the semi-final?
Re: What changes do we need to make for the semi-final?
I think I have mentioned it twice and deliberately because of your holier than thou belief that everybody should attend otherwise they are not real fans. How absurd and insulting is that! EVERY person here is a fan and they also have real life and circumstances. If for whatever reason, I do not think it will, I was never able to attyend a match because my son needed me I would choose my SON every time.
BTW it was far better when every , nearly was Sunday 3.00

There are many people who cannot go, not just because it's in Doncaster & on Friday night!Whelley Warrior wrote:I only asked because every time Wigan have a important game away from Wigan, you come on here telling us that you are not going.cpwigan wrote:Sir!My wife is on a 7.30-8.00 Shift. Looking after my young son Sir! Going on vacation early Saturday Sir!
Can I retain my place in your Super Fan Clkub Sir!
Last time,it was yourself who was working.
And there is no need for the sarcasm about a Super Fan Club.
I am not trilled about the game being at Doncaster on a Friday Night, but at the end of the day, it is a Semi Final.
P.S. How many of those not going will be first in the queue for Final tickets if we win?
I have some friends who can't go because of work commitments others are on family holidays that have been booked since early in the year & others who have family committments like cp.
They go to the majority of home & away games! It's the ones who NEVER go to any a games throughout the year you should be having a moan about!
Not everyone can go to every game in a season!
I'm lucky, I'm retired it makes no nevermind to me, I'd go wherever & whenever the Warriors play for as long as I am able to, but it is difficult for some, so you shouldn't condemn fans who cannot make the journey!
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

About 18,000 at a guess. In fact Wembley tickets will be bought by many who haven't attended a game all season, if ever. A final always attracts new bodies and is an ideal opportunity to increase the fanbase.Whelley Warrior wrote:I only asked because every time Wigan have a important game away from Wigan, you come on here telling us that you are not going.cpwigan wrote:Sir!My wife is on a 7.30-8.00 Shift.

I am going but like Josie am retired so my time is my own.It is wrong to criticise others whom for their own personal reasons chose not to.

Re: What changes do we need to make for the semi-final?
I'm going. Being self employed I have had to jiggle a few things around, but I will be there.
Re: What changes do we need to make for the semi-final?
I'm not. ST holder and go to most away games, went to Catalan too, but I can't get out of work early and finish at 1730 and the thought of trying to fly through traffic for 2hours plus, to just make the KO and then face another 2-3 hour drive home is making me choose the couch, which I'm really annoyed about!
Saturday or Sunday and I'm there with bells on.

Good. Some of us will not be there not by choice but we physically can't but we will be in spirit you can be sure of thatold hooker wrote:I am going but like Josie am retired so my time is my own.It is wrong to criticise others whom for their own personal reasons chose not to.
Re: What changes do we need to make for the semi-final?
why would it matter if a fan went or not, the location is miles away on a friday after which alot of people will be working.
i'm going although i would have just as much enjoyed sitting at home with a beer watching it.

These are two reasons not to trust people.
1. We don't know them.
2. We do know them.
