Your right, all the marketing in the world isnt going to stop a low attendence this coming sunday against Celtic.

I thought it was a very good idea and some of the offers made were quite good.

Mick Hogan is doing a great job.

You did give the impression that we weren't suppose to market the club until we began to play well though.

If anything, the fact that we are playing poor warrants the push on crowds.

Its the Big One because its my birthday

Well happy birthday then

and HOPE we win .

Thankyou in advance but I meant the Leeds game

oops sorry

Perhaps we should bill it as 'The Forthcoming Massacre'.

Would that get the crowds in, do you think?

Got my letter and phone call. Pretty good offer, I like the polo shirts.

Given that we got massacred at home by Hudds on your birthday last year, this is hardly a good omen...

A polo shirt is no incentive at all. A discount voucher for the Wigan RL shop would have been better.

And why is Leeds classed as :15zclbtethe :15zclbteBig One? It's not and never will be. Artificial marketing hype is always transparent.

Marketing should be aimed mainly at the less attractive games anyway, when the only plan at the moment seems to be to give away tickets. The Celtic match this Sunday will see a very poor turnout of paying customers.

I am not as delighted as some on here with the marketing effort at Wigan. They have still not tackled the basic need to inform the general public about :15zclbtewhen

It's a marketing campaign, pure and simple. It doesn't matter if both teams aren't performing, that probably isn't factored into it, due to how long these things take to organise.

What is factored in, is the attendance figure that will appear in news reports. It looks good for the club and good for the game.

Great idea.
