Great chance to right some wrongs from previous years. 

Bolton 3 Wigan 0 😊

Poor lad was a centre half as well, up against one of the best players in the league. Think he got a bit of grief on social media which was totally unwarranted. 

Quite.

Was arguably a bad set up/selection too.

Anyone know if match buses got let off first against Lincoln? 

Last time I used it it took 1hr30 to get to Tyldesley 

Said 15 mins after final whistle mate but didn't hold all traffic up like they used to. Took 15 mins to get out of car park.

We were nearly home when the buses passed us

24,000+ sold, phenomenal at any level.

Just don't understand how 1,000 empty seats in Wigan end and segregation can amount to 4/5000 empty seats. 

Won't matter anyway going to be a mad atmosphere let's have it!

The 24k+ announcement is in the Bolton ends is it not?

Letting go of Brockbank off the back of the Wigan game was a blessing. Nowhere near good enough and I couldn’t tell you what position he played even now. Too short for a centre half that’s for sure.

It’ll be total, including away fans.

Don’t forget we lose seats in ESL and WSL from segregation as well as the no man’s land in SSL. Plus there will be plenty of unsold seats in LoV etc

Over 20,000 Bolton and less than 4,000 Wigan - let’s shut them up

Thing is though don't they include season ticket holders regardless?

There's not many seats left to be sold, only a couple hundred, Wigan have left 1,000 unsold, that's why I'm confused as we have a capacity of nearly 29,000.

Segregation can't amount 4,000 seats surely.

Yes included regardless

i thought it was 27k capacity? So that probably sounds about right

24k sold, 700 unsold Wigan, 500 home tickets left & rest segregation 

Capacity total Is just over 28,700.

 

How many Wigan sold then?

Guaranteed Baxter passes it straight to Magennis trying to play out from the back to put us 1-0 down 😂

Looking like a decent crowd 

Was just under 21k last time so another sign of progress

See above 

Big games deserve big crowds

My lad and his mates, all 16/17 years old, are giddy as fuck.

You won’t convince them Wigan isn’t a rivalry.

Im just being a miserable old cunt moaning about the early kick off. Absolutely no fucking need.

I just find all attendance 'banter' a bit weird. Fleetwood didn't bring many on Tuesday, but they were still singing at 3-0 down. So fucking what?

Then don't join in 

I don't care if they bring 500 or 5000

I'm just curious as to what the crowd might be compared to last time
