wate of time

Being a supporter who does not live in Wigan I wonder sometimes how they expect to attract new
supports or keep some the loyal ones like myself and my family.
We get nothing from the official website have just looked at it, no mention of Gary Connolly going, no decent club news, and news digest is a joke. Have just given my details again for updates for the fourth time..still yet to recieve anything from them.
I dont feel the club do enought to promote outside the area, try getting a shirt outside of wigan,(exception now is JJB in Bolton only coz the manager is a true supporter do they get them)
ask any other JJB store and they look at you as if you are daft asking for wigan shirts, scarves and any other supporters stuff. The club shop at soccordome when we make the visit is a joke, other clubs even do babywear NOT WIGAN.
I will continue to support Wigan but being outside of the area the only link I would have with the club and club activities should be via the club, the club do not seem to recognise the outside supports in any way.
Was sorry to see Gary go to Orrell, but only knew
after seeing results today that he has gone to Leeds. (were's the details of that from the club, maybe there was something in the paper but we can not always get hold of that.
About time Wigan promoted the club properly if they need ideas I am sure there are plenty out there with suggestions.
Thanks for this site it's the best thing I did finding this...
cheers and merry xmas
