Year 1 - hoops
Year 2 - hoops
Year 3 - change
away can be black or white/blue but i think I remember IL saying black is more popular (for the larger people)


I hope ISC don't have a template like KooGa have.

I'd like a shirt with thin cherry and white hoops similar to the centenary shirt

Or our away shirt for 2012 is loosely based on the Central African Republic National football team shirt:

Well, brace yourself. Matters not what we put on here, the new kit has already been produced, we know that to be true. I think I remember IL saying we have Kooga for another year?

All you clowns are missing the real point. It is appalling that the club intend to change the shirt every year just like the money grabbers in the football world. Bring some sense of realism to the scene and stick with your old shirt, I'll stick with my JJB one from 2000.

Silly statement.

It's appalling that the club intend to remain profitable and not fall into administration by changing the shirt and obtaining my extra £42 every year. Shocking! How dare they try to keep Wigan RLFC afloat! Scurge of the RFL these money makers. It's a disgrace, and they should hang their head in shame!

If they sold 1 shirt per season ticket holder in 2011, they would've turned over in the region of £570'000. Now i dont know how much these shirts cost to make, ship and store, but I'm certain the club do not make more than 50% markup on them, so we'll knock 50% off, so we're down to £285'000 there. But we know that not every season ticket holder will buy a shirt, so let's take off 25% for argument sake £213'750. Looks mighty like a figure that would pay, just about, the overheads for Warriors World in GA alone. Then there's the match day outlet, rent for the stadium, upkeep of the stadium, staff, players, transport to and from away games/wembley/old trafford, doctors bill, hospital bills, maintenance of Orrell...

Yep, i'll keep buying the shirts thanks
