Wigan Season Ticket

[Nemo]

I've just realised they spent 5.3 million on Koumas, scratch what I said earlier about doing well on transfers.

I imagine they turn a fair profit on their scouting network though, £14m profit in 12 months on Palacios, something similar in the summer on Valencia no doubt.

Didn't they also make a profit on Chimbonda a couple of years ago, or was that another team ?

It would be worth spending £250 on a season ticket just to see the big games.  You would pay £40 a game to see the likes of Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal and Manu at most stadiums.

You'd probably also pay that £40 in fuel to get to Wigan for each game...

While it's fashionable to 'hate' Man U or Chelsea, I'll reserve my ire for Wigan.  Rarely has there been a more criminal waste of a Premier League place.  They bought their way there and now have to offer cut-price inducements to get an indifferent fan base through the turnstiles.

I remember our home game against them the season they won the League 1 title.  200 or 300 of them parked up in the corner of the North Stand...and barely a whisper from them all game.  I still haven't quite worked out why they exist.  Pointless football club.
