As much as all clubs would love to sell 3,000 tickets to away fans every time they are at home, it isn't going to happen. It is the responsibility of the marketing team at each club to sell as many tickets as possible and that is how it should be. Away fans are a luxury, but in an ideal world, Wigan would sell every seat in the stadium as a season ticket.....if they could. It is their responsibility to fill the stadium....not that of the away team.

Sorry, but IMO the above is a cop out for being one of the poorest away supported clubs! Every fan of the game loves to be at a game where there is a vibrant crowd and atmosphere made up of both home and visiting supporters. In this era of new stadia that is upon us, how lifeless and dull would games be if supporters of every team took the same attitude and approach where only home support is important??? Fortunately they don't! Otherwise the game would have died years ago before TV....let alone SKY was even invented. Instead when new supporters first experienced that bouncing vibrant atmosphere and chanting between home and visiting support...it brought them back to the game time and time again. Why should that stop now?
When new young players are coming through the ranks, or kids in the crowd dreaming of representing their team...what sort of crowd atmosphere do you think they want to play in front of??? 7000 home plus 50 visiting fans....or 7000 home plus a strong visiting support?? I know which I'd enjoy the most!!
Sadly, we now live in SKY's pocket and all that goes with it where your postcode is more important than your attendance at a game. I'm sure that players play for...and appreciate support on the terraces and as supporters that counts for both home and away games IMO!

I am still waiting for a system of how you would monitor the number of away fans? Pre-sale at your home club is one possibility, but what about those who decide on the day and roll up and pay cash? Pretty hard to monitor....and worthless unless it becomes a SL Licence criteria.'"
