Sorry Kipax, I have to disagree with you about the ground. Yes its going to be nice having a cover over the Clayton terrace, but what about the Coppice terrace? And lets face it, The Whinney Hill terrace aint up to much. Its O.K. having the plans to rebuild that terrace to come into line with Football League criteria, but the club as a whole cannot get a grant until they gain promotion and who is to say that the goalposts won't be shifted in the near future making it impossible for the team to get into the league prior to having the redevelopment done.

Got to agree with you Bazf, I work at Wigan Athletic and they open up the Family stand to schoolchildren for free on certain match days when unattractive clubs are playing at the JJB. and lets face it Wigan Athletic's attendances are not the best in the world by a long chalk and they were in the play off positions until just recently.
