First of all you were worried and virtually convinced the game wouldn't be held at the DW because of the Latics factor. Numerous pages of rubbish written for no reason.
Now some faux outrage that the club hasn't sold a gazillion tickets to a game they had less than a week to.promote etc.
How dare the club put something on the website saying tickets were going fast, I mean I do t seem.to recall at any poi t the club saying Panic there's not many left?
Now as for jammed phone lines and websites crashing I'm sure that's a slight exaggeration especially when considering that anyone with half an ounce of nouse could have worked out that at worst there'd be 10k tickets left but yet decide to panic Saturday and Sunday because theyre Sat hovering over a computer or telephone over a problem that won't exist.
Then complaining about having to queue up for pre ordered tickets because someone wants to just turn up on the day and pay!
How dare they turn up on the day and pay, I mean it's not like in the next breathe someone going to be moaning that there wasn't enough people at the game is it?
Oh wait! :ASK:
I'm a season ticket holder and my mates who are also rang me Monday night and asked what we're doing. No panic over weekend, I just told em I couldn't go Tuesday so would pick them up Wednesday. Still got the discount (Thank you club) and my kids only have to pay £5 each for a semi final (Thank you club) and they didn't charge me £2 extra because I went down there. Now your not telling me that you couldn't have got down there at some point in those 5 days are you to take advantage of those 2 great offers from the club?
I'm assuming your a ST holder? I mean we wouldn't want any non ST holders coming would we?

God help us tomorrow and all next week if we do win.
It's almost enough to Make me want to lose so we don't have to put up with this!
I'll predict threads galore about :_
can't get through on phones
Can't log on to website
Numerous threads about how many tickets we've sold and how many are left which will all be wrong
We should have a points system for those who go to away games but aren't ST holders
Why can ST holders get 4 x tickets each it's not fair
It's all the fault of that bl00dy millwall game
Etc.etc.

And guess what? Everyone who wants one will get one and there won't be an issue and most like game won't sell.out :roll:

As for won't get fooled again, well some people seem to get fooled too easily on a regular basis when i suspect no-one was trying to fool anyone in the first place.


a lot of sense in there tbh jukesay, but the trip to the stadium bit doesn't take into account a fellow with a bad chest on public transport who is out of breath by time he gets there. Matchday offers a relief of a sit down , but buying tickets means travel straight back ( not happening )

and yes , your right about panicking over things that may not happen , but I used to be a boy scout...Be Prepared :)

Speaking of tickets, I've got a spare one in the South stand if anyone wants it - face value

It's just WIGAN, nothing else. Get rid of that stupid nickname.

Re: Tickets for thursday : Thu Oct 01, 2015 4:18 pm  
Only 2 of my gang of 5 will be there.
Reasons for missing it (probably common ones for a lot of people), are a combination of these:
1. It's work today and tomorrow.
2. It's Thursday. Can't get away from work early like Fridays.
3. We are ST holders and don't want to pay for an extra game.
4. It's on tv.
5. It's GF next week (if we win) and that's more expensive but one that we are prepared to pay for as it's GF.

Not my words -- I'll be there. But people are entitled to make choices about how they spend their time and money. I know that none of us likes Thursday games and all believe STs should cover all games. Friday and 'free', and I guess all would have attended.

It won't be anywhere near what it should be for a game of this importance, but I think it will break 5 figures.

Considering it's the only home game of the season that a ST can't be used for, when in the old system there was usually 2, it is poor that there hasn't been a bigger demand. RL tickets aren't expensive and it completely devalues the product to reduce ticket prices for big games.


I was just about right with my prediction that we'd break 5 figures - 10,035 :lol:

About 3,500 down on this season's average, but no doubt there'll be a hefty queue for tickets tomorrow!

Pleasantly surprised with the crowd tbh. It's not great but it's better then some of our recent play off crowds when you consider the away following was only 12-1500 or so.

Play off attendances are a problem across the board.

Not bad for a Thursday night playoff.

Looked grim as I entered the ground tonight about 7:20 but started to fill up a bit. To be honest I thought it was a bit more at the time.

Leeds last second winner wasn't great for the play off crowds. Had we topped the league I think you'd have seen 18,000 or so on at the DW tomorrow and a similar crowd for Leeds v Hudds as they will get against Saints.

Sorry but "we are. ST holders and don't want to pay for an extra game" sounds pretty sad to me.

If paying 20 quid to see your team reach a GF is too much trouble...
Sure, people are entitled to spend their hard-earned how they choose. What they're not entitled to do is call themselves fans if that's their attitude.
