They weren't stewards, they were fire marshals. Apparently, Will Griggs on fire, but he wasn't in the team so they weren't needed

They knew there would be a pitch invasion and a degree of control loss over the crowd. Their duty is to protect away fans from nutters. Thankfully it wasn't needed as everyone behaved.

Seemed an appropriate side to win promotion against in a funny way. Remember going into Woolworths on Western Road in circa 2001 and seeing a great pile of Wigan calendars - purely because they were in the Premier League. I don't think there were many takers.

So that's why Woolworth's went bust, or symptomatic of the cause.
