I was just thinking about how many fans we will take to "The Theatre Of Dreams" and how many of them are only coming because its the final but don't attend our bread and butter matches home or away in the season but crawl out of the woodwork for finals and claim they have supported Wigan since they were a lad because to me these are the people who need targeting by Mr Lenagan and co for his magical 20.000 average attendance, I say when they come for their tickets next week that we get all their details and pester the life out of them, to try and get them down to the DW on a cold night in February because success breeda success so heres hoping!.

Well said Kitt Green Warriors. Unfortunately for me I will not be able to attend as I am looking after my Brother in Laws pub whilst he goes to America. Mind you I shall have sky on in the pub no matter it being a football pub. Loyal supporter I. :eusa2: :eusa2: :eusa2:

I'm in the queue right now. About a hundred in front, 200 behind us. Can't see there being many tickets left for General sale unless we get another load!

that’s interesting ........ so if you don’t go to away games are you deemed a glory hunter ?

My wife and i have ST for over 10 years now, but we don’t go to away games(well one or two) are we glory hunters in your eyes ?

The more the merrier I say, if only a % attend regularly in 2011 it is a win win for all Wigan fans. I hate bracketing fans etc.

I think by Tuesday it will be a real scramble and those fans will be lining up early and big style like the CP days. I do not have a season ticket this year, first time for many years but I did the you are no 1050 in a phone queue and got 2 tickets.

The more the merrier IMO, our sport needs a few glory hunters to raise the awareness of our great sport ...... anyway you would be lucky to get a ticket without a ST looking at the ticket allocation we got.

Unless you are going alone I would advise non season ticket holders to grin and bear the you are number nonsense and get on the phoneline to buy tickets. Waiting until Tuesday is too risky IMO.
