That begs the question, where the fuck were they in the Prem?

 

[leicesterarenotourivals]

We will have 1,500 at Millllllll probably at £26 a ticket when it's hardly the most attractive ground for families and youngsters to visit. I'm guessing that's more than the majority of Championship clubs took last year?

we sold first allocation for coventry..we getting another 1000 at dinner time not bad for a 2-3 hour drive

How many was the 1st allocation?

 

[Jamo]

Had a look out of boredom. 900 lol.

Tbf to Wigan they brought around 2,500 to Oakwell the first day of the 13/14 season so they can travel in numbers when they can be bothered. Remains to be seen how many will fancy Colchester/Gillingham/Swindon if they're not top of the league though.

 

[Shrimpurh]

We have sold just under 300 for Fleetwood away. Wasn't exactly expecting us to send thousands there

 

[infidel]

I think a few people are going to be surprised by Wigans support this season. They're not as tinpot as some would have you believe.

Come on! They are about as tin pot as a club can get!

 

[PrestonCha]

No they're not. You've been out of the UK for 40+ years. Things have changed.

 

[PUSBCCFC]

Wigan have sold around 1700, which is good, but nothing to go wild about. 18 quid a ticket, easy ground to get to etc.

Will be a very low home ground as it stands.

Things don`t change that much!

 

[Hurrikeen]

We've sold around 600 for Walsall and I'd double that for POTD.

Would be disappointed if we didn't take 1200+.

 

[DearneValleyRover]

According to our ticket office Bury had sold 250 at 9 this morning although they are expecting them to fetch around 1,000

250?!

 

[DearneValleyRover]

250?!

Exactly my reaction given they are newly promoted and only 1 hour away plus their fans on here bigging themselves up.

No excuses whatsoever for them not to take 1000+

 

[blademan89]

We had 70 tickets left yday out of our 1900 allocation at gillingham tommorrow. It's gonna be a long long session quite looking forward to it for once.

 

[S74Blade]

Good luck to all Blades travelling tomorrow. To all other fans have a great season except for when you play us

How many season tickets have Coventry sold? Hopefully you do well and pull in some good crowds, because I have never been to a more soulless ground than the Ricoh last season.

5000ish. The target was 6000 I think.

 

[HertsWolf]

...because I have never been to a more soulless ground than the Ricoh last season.

Oh. So you don't go to home games then?

 

[HertsWolf]

Good to see a Wigan fan. Welcome to the forum.

To be fair, this includes the team, the staff, the coach drivers and the groupies.

As Joe said, around 5000. That is actually quite a bit more than I thought, after the terrible football on offer and the lack of enjoyment when going to matches at the Ricoh, I thought we would only sell 3500.

Would love us to do well this year, just to see the Ricoh more populated each week, if we have another season like last, we may see crowds around 6000.

Always good to see a few thousand away fans at the Ricoh.

We can pay on the day why would you buy a ticket beforehand?

 

[Robert Molenaar]

Surprised to see we've only sold 800 for Swindon tomorrow. Has been made pay on the gate, but can't see more than 1000 total down there.

 

[Hurrikeen]

A lot of games you can buy beforehand and on the day, just surprised to see only 250 bought before hand.

I'll assume there's no saving to be had buy buying early? More understandable if not, I suppose.

What you reckon you'll take?

Impossible. That didn't even happen during the worst moments of last season when we had 500 fewer ST holders. We'll push up the average this year. It'll still be a million miles from what it should be, but I reckon we have bottomed out.

Good to see a big following from Wigan. Remember when they came to Highfield Road, numbers OK but made plenty of noise. Could do without it kicking off this time though - pretty ugly last time.
