To say their attendances are similar to a club who never sells out their stadium just because they are a similar sized stadium is like saying Cardiff are the Welsh Brighton (even that is stretching it as Brighton have a higher ave attendance).

Wigan are known for having shit support.

So are Swansea.

Simple. Don't cry about it.


Swansea sell out their ground game after game.

Not hard to sell out a small stadium in the Prem.

Don't get why you call them the welsh Wigan? No.

Your explanation seems to be based on something that hasn't happened which I find a bit odd. It a bit like saying Cardiff haven't sold out in the prem so are the worst supported side in history, completely ignoring they have never been there. Swansea have a capacity issue which is why their average attendance is 20,000 odd and shows no sign of dropping.

It's based on your away support, but okay. Everyone knows the nickname is slightly exaggerated. Do I really have to mention your recent away attendances? And before you do, you can't compare your support to Cardiff's when we're in the Championship.

You're really hurt by this aren't you, get over it, it's just a nickname.

I'm not a Swansea fan I'm just trying to understand the logic.but now you have admitted you are exaggerating then I am starting to understand a little more. That's all you had to say,

But, Sure let me know Swansea's away attendance record.

So you are now unwilling to follow through with what you were suggesting you would do?

I'm happy to hear your evidence regarding Swansea's away attendance record. If you don't have any then continue to swerve, if you do have some then put it here for all to see.

Otherwise ill put your "nickname" down to a nonsenseical complex which you have described yourself as "exaggerated".

I'm all ears.

I didn't say I would do it, I asked if I had to, implying that everyone already knows how poor the Welsh Wigan's support is. But you're weren't capable of understanding that concept.

I'll say it again, there's a search option on this forum.

Why do you keep quoting yourself?

As I told you, he doesn't have to count it in order to quantify it. Evidence is quantified by the strength of the proof rather than how many pieces submitted.

But it would be very welcome if he could quantify his argument then we can maybe get an answer as to why he has decided to create this nickname.

You wanted me to give you proof that your away support is shit so I gave you one example and now you're assuming that's the only example :lol:

Also I didn't create this nickname, I believe 'All Black Everything' did and it just caught on. Stop crying over a nickname, you'll be going on about "sheep shaggers" next and asking for examples of us shagging sheep :lol:
