Gaz. Get off your orange box. If you ever want a pint in the SSB, ring one of us and we'll nip out with a S/T for you.
That's how it works. Just hope your conversation in real life is not as extensive as your dialogue on here else we'll all miss the bloody match!

I know KW Its very rare I hang around til after the game to go for a pint anyway I was just being silly. I genuinely can't see what all the fuss is about though tbh, like I say when sponsorship is hard to come by they have to offer perks to sponsors which include free tickets which don't get used, free bars and stuff but thats the nature of the beast. As for me going on KW I'm actually very quiet and reserved in 'real life'. Gpartin is a more open and confident version of myself

The game is being run by the RFL and like Internationals and Challenge Cup Semi Finals, the bar is used for sponsership deals.
Supporters should be thankfull that the game is at the DW Stadium as the RFL wanted to stage it elsewhere like they have in recent years at thr Reebok, Galpharm and Elland Road Stadiums.

Just a point about the corporate setup at Wigan. During the SL season the club relies on the income from the function rooms.
The corporate tables pay a lot of money to the club, and having been lucky enough to be in there a few times I can tell you that the majority of people in there are absolutely fans of the club, and are there to watch the matches and support their team (never ever on a screen by the way).
I can't understand this anti-corporate / sponsorship attitude when it is such a huge part of the clubs finances.
I accept this game is a bit different as it is RFL run, but why should season ticket holders be granted access to the SS Bar when this isn't even a match covered by season tickets??
