I have just looked at the SKY TV games and noticed 6 out of the 7 first Home games are on SKY T.V. what is the point of buying expensive season tickets when they are on TV nearly every week

Obviously none whatsoever, and people who attend rugby matches in person are deluded fools...

It's always an interesting debate - if the home game is on TV does that mean fans won't go? Personally, and going right back to my earliest games, if a home game was on TV that was never a reason not to attend. I'm not sure why, but for me at least the question simply didn't arise. You went to cheer the team on, delight in the atmosphere and now that we have Friday night fixtures, enjoy a few beers as well. I appreciate that it's more expensive these days and that maybe a different generation of supporters would simply rather watch in the pub. But it's not like it's a new thing either. Back when Wigan ruled the roost, season after season passed when we seemed to be on telly all the time. If you're going to buy a season ticket at the beginning of the year you must surely be aware that a good proportion of Wigan's matches are are likely to be on television?

The way i see it, Wigan being on TV means more people are likely to watch, like what they see and then attend further down the line. I can't remember ever missing a game because it was televised, but it has been a bonus when i couldn't attend anyway

Srsly, as a long-distance fan, I can't feasibly get to every home game, so of course I'm glad if I can see it down the pub (although it's not so easy down here finding a pub TV that isn't allocated to football or RU), or, at a push, on my lap-top.
