Training ground?

Got a hot rumour from a source inside the club, or just something you heard down the pub? Then what are you waiting for, post it on The Rumour Mill.

Problem i find is we are leaving a stadium we own to a stadium we are going be renting. With reported 7 or 8 million for sale of orrell would surely possibly buy robin park?

Who owns robin park arena?
Wigan Council I think!
I thought it'd be the council surely they wouldn't let such an asset go for the money raised by the sale of Orrell

Think those are the future plans.

Will council sell it to us though? Its a shame we are selling orrell as its a great stadium and training facilities. I know there was talk of going in with cuthberts and developing them pitches a few year back when we bought old pem school.

does anyone know what restrictions are on Robin Park since of course it was a replacement for the original facility were the shops are now, this was grant aided and sports council so maybe WMBC would not be able to sell but only lease ?
