If Wigan have got old fans it shows that they are sticking with their team, even though they've seen some of the greatest teams in history they are still coming to watch Wigan even though they are now comparitively mediocre.

now if i was a betting man i'd conclude that these older fans are the last remnants of the "glory years" and if wigan continue to miss out on future trophys they may just fizzle out and disapear!

ancient and loyal must be a description of the fanbase rather than the club!
