Sports (Talk about balls here.)
Why hasn't it gripped the town? Considering how Football is the most watched sport on the planet and is never off Sky sports and the BBC, Why have the people of Wigan not taken to it? The Premier League is regarded by many as the best in the world and yet Wigan Athletic struggle to attract crowds drawn in by the towns Rugby team, even though that sport is hardly recognised outside Lancashire and Yorkshire. The Latics try their best with marketing, having the cheapest Season tickets and loads of special offers as well as thousands of freebies during the season. I wish I knew the answer because I would love the town to get behind the Latics but we'll just have to wait and see how the coming season goes. Hopefully if they can keep hold of Zog and add one or two top names to the squad the people of Wigan may give them one more chance. Here's hoping
