Please God, don't let people at the club see posts like this and assume that it's a view representative of all Wigan fans.

DW could have ditched Wigan RL a long time ago. He hasn't because he's a long-term fan.

Yes, he's poured much more cash into the football, but that's because he's allowed to. I also have it on good authority that he's often strenuously defended his interest in Wigan RL when he's attended Latics fans meetings. (You can be a genuine supporter of both codes, you know).

Please don't starting maligning the man who may currently be the only thing between us and oblivion.
whelan long term fan, don't make me laugh :lol:

Think your living in the past mate.

if it wasn't for DW and ML we would be in div 2 and ground sharing with Orrell.

Despite the fact ML was Managing Director of Superleague in 1997 when Westy left Wigan? :conf:

I remember seeing Whelan at Wigan matches, sitting in the vice presidents area, when Latics were an unsuccessful twinkle in Bill Kenyon's eye.

Sorry if this isn't what you want to hear, but Whelan was at Central Park as a fan long before the glory years even began, and I'm a witness who was there.
