As Preston North End depart and we welcome Southend United to the division, it is time to look at how many miles Latics supporters will be travelling next season.
Last season, the team travelled 5,424 miles around the country as they finished 15th in Sky Bet League One.With Bristol City, MK Dons, Leyton Orient, Crawley Town and Yeovil Town leaving the division and Bury, Burton, Blackpool and Wigan joining, supporters will be travelling significantly less to support Latics next season.
With only a 12 mile round trip, local rivals Rochdale is the shortest trip of the season whilst Gillingham is the longest, with the team due to embark on a 504 mile round trip.
This campaign, Latics will only travel 4,480 knocking 944 miles off last season's total.
