I think if people can see some of the youngsters being given plenty of 1st team action, like Ainscough, Mossop, Tomkins our crowds would get better even we lose a few. Fans want to see these players get regular 1st team action, not just for a few minutes here and there, but for full games to get the experience they need.
Give the fans what they want and they will go to games

I still have a season ticket though and will make away games when I can.
The problem we have this year compared to 2006 with the support we get is that in 2006 we could of gone down so everyone got behind the team and it was great especially games like Leeds away. This year we could be bottom all season and anyone who doesnt have a season ticket would stop going as it doesnt matter.
Dont be daft , no relegation will not affect attendances , Richard said so

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

Has anyone on here decided to pick and choose games now? Or even stopped going at all
I pay on the day these days, but I'd still attend matches no matter what. I love rugby, and I love matchdays as a social experience just as much as I love to see the games, so it's not putting me off going.
I can imagine how it would put some off, though.

tell you what it felt colder an really empy last week against cas 12500 what a load of rubbish then ppl started leaving on 53 mins they prob missed the best bits wigan produced

They will bring more than usual with it being on a Saturday night. 16,000 is easily achievable if we win next week.
