Good to hear that you rovers fans are growing on me

Whats the atmosphere like compared to other places, our home fans have never been very good when you guys have been in town because you always play well against us.

The stadium is great for an atmosphere IMO, and your fans are relatively loud when you want to be. Put it this way, away at the JJB is the best away fixture IMO (apart from at Hull.)

the only reason you like wigan is because youve got that bluddy pub on the corner which is named after the robin! i may see a few of you lot in there for a beer before the game- cant usually miss me, im the one with the drum ( i.e was on the telly in edinburgh whilst on the phone)

i can see there being a good attendance on with a few of the wigan casuals coming out now we're in a bit of form!

could be a classic!

We will most probably sing a song about you on Friday. Your counter-part at Warrington had one sung about him last Sunday!

Our fans can be awesome when the team plays well, every time you guys have been in town you have beaten us or played well and stopped us from running away with it. If its a close game it will be a great atmosphere.
