In reply to 'those were the days' - what stupid posts, you're saying you sdon't want fans to turn up and support Wigan even if they leave early? No fan is better than the other, whether you go to all games or 1 game, or even none, all fans are surely the same and have the same rights to be labelled a 'fan'. Seriously hope you dont want to see our crowds drop to below 10,000 if people leave early, what a ridiculous ting to post. Suppose you're a 'proper fan' then or a happy clapper.



Doesn't matter what time you go from a match the club gets support and interest (and money) by simply turning up at 8pm. No fan is more loyal than another. I no longer have a season ticket and choose my matches due to personal reasons... used to go all home and away but it doesnt make me less of a fan does it.



Personally i stayed until the hooter and got out 10 minutes afterward, parked on the free carpark and was past Pier 15 minutes later - the traffic seriously isnt that bad as some make out though, unless you're in the payment carparks (to which i have no experience)

I said 30-40,000





Literally half the United crowd had gone. Unbelievable.

It was only yesterday you was saying why do wigan and wire fans have to argue but yet one day later your here doing the same thing gtfo

Telling somebody they're lying, isn't arguing.

Mass exodus when Aurelio scored, you know it. United were shocking that day





BTW - You said you left before the final whistle, even though there was ten minutes of 'fergie' time left?

There wasn't. I admit that thousands left when Dossena scored. Hardly any after Aurelio scored. We're the best team in this country at coming back, nobody in their right mind would leave then. 4-1 was enough for me.



Before



After



Both shots the ground is pretty full. I know it wasn't minutes later, I was down Chester road quicker than Keiron Cunningham in a buffet queue.

I work nights and have 5 hours sleep in the day to make it to games and I start at 11pm every night I attend every game that I can do and I also live in Blackpool so its not like I am in chorley,pem,wigan etc so in my book I am a loyal supporter

I love winding my wigan friends up with this, it's a bit of banter ammo i even have it in my sig BUT joking aside as long as you put you £19 or whatever it is in to the club coffers who cares ?



If you leave 10 mins early does the club have to give you 1/8th of the cost back ?



If i buy a meal in a restaurant do i have to eat it all because i paid for it ?



It's great for a bit of playful banter but as a serious discussion, really, does it matter, who cares ? I bet the club don't as long as the fans show up in the first place.

I didn't leave early. In fact I was the last Wigan fan to leave the South Stand! Bloody flags!
