The club has been approached (I am not involved in any way) to support a Retro Day Easter Monday.
A thread to help promote the day.
Suggestions for clothing etc?
Usually old shirts isn't it? Get some old players back, torn up phone books and yellow pages in the town end and the refreshments carts walking around the edge of the pitch. Sorted.

I used to really enjoy seeing old players come back and walk round the pitch at half time.
Brindle band playing before, at half time and at the end of the match as per yesteryear.
Normal dress code for me then 🙂
A Retro Day won't require much of an effort from a sizeable proportion of our fanbase.

Was that not a pub in Wigan ?
The ISA used to organise Retro/Old shirt days which linked to the anniversary of getting the Town End back.. where always a success, I'm sure folk will get behind this, although the thought of seeing some of our elder statesman squeezing into their old Pontins shirts might not be a pretty sight 😉
Like it. Now the Players should play using the Ball from Sir Toms Era.
in seriousness, I do like it and hopefully the old PNE Townend flag could be found for the day.

Smoke bombs and pyrotechnics aren't really that retro.
Instead, it would be much more appropriate to chuck on toilet rolls when we score.

I have it in a glass case here.
