I don't remember that, what was it meant to be? I did wonder why there were so many kids, but I thought it was a much better crowd than most of us expected.



And AJ, pink and blue fizzy bottles do not class as 'complaining over anything'

there was a 3 hour festival before the game at st cuthberts.

Anyone who went on sun would realise there wasnt 12,300 on!!! Less than 10k IMO and the worst attendance at the JJB for years. The only way Wigan arrived at 12,300 was by counting what appeared to be numerous season ticket holders who didnt turn up, along with counting all the free tickets given away, regardless of whether they turned up.

The east stand was as busy as i've seen it for a while against a team outside of the big clubs like Saints, Leeds, Bradford or Wire.



Probably free tickets but i wouldn't say 12k was too wide of the mark.

View from the west stand, was that the east stand was more full then usual and with the south being slighty down on normal. Therfore 12k was about rite IMO

I agree, it was just the Man Utd supporting chavs in the South Stand that didnt turn up!!

whats that got to do with it?



its ok if your near st cuthberts, but some of us would prefer a 3 hour festival round robin park.



too much to ask?

Cuthberts is not that far from Robin Park. Less than 2 minutes drive or 10 minutes walk. I'm pleased they are supporting a local amateur club. I passed Cuthberts and it looked packed so well done them.

they billed it as some kind of community day and mick hogan said theyd be aiming for 15k at the game

Thats standard practise with all clubs. It makes no odds really if they turned up or not they've still paid to go which to the club is all that matters.



I don't think it was less than 10,000 myself. In fact I thought it was a great crowd considering it was Celtic.

As Bilko has said Cuthberts is a 2 minute walk from JJB.



Honestly some people will moan about anything, the club organise a festival with hundreds of kids taking part, we get the highest attendance of the weekend against one of the worst supported clubs (who are also at the bottom of the table) and STILL people are coming on here complaining.



I cant believe it

sorry mate...ive got my bearings wrong.



im thinking st judes.





aye cuthberts is close enough, but how come i dont know about it? and probably thousands of others didnt
