Wigan lost about £400K last season, the accounts are due to be made public. As for moving the Saints game to London, that isn't going to happen, IL has already stated that neither of the Saints, Wire or Leeds games if indeed we do get them at home in the next round of games will be played away.

it has to be a player, the "it is not a player" comment is a red herring IMO

You obviously haven't read this thread!

All ready stated by ddtftf that it is not player related nor coach related. Neither is it to do with the super 8's this season (so that rules your comment about what IL said instantly)

All speculation of course, but to annoy "most" fans would mean those that go to home games and not watch on telly. My theory is that the only way to piss fans off is to move one of the bigger home games to London next season (for the Business Club)..

What else could it be?

Bitcon going might upset some but seriously wouldn't have people demonstrating in the streets :roll: so back room staff in essence are all replaceable and if you buy into the three year theory of CPW then maybe the same can be said for these?

Ticket prices doubling is a possibility - but losing fans more willing to watch on telly would be self harming at its worst.

So either this thread IS total and utter balls or there is to be some announcement and it wont really bother 99% of the fans any way

Back room staff of the quality of Bitcon et Al would be a major loss imo,not easy to replace.

Then the answer is obvious,if we were to lose Bitcom to another team/sport the team and our sport would be the loser.Btw isn't he England's physio?

If this is true then the news is probably that one of our sponsors has gone under.
The sponsorship we received from CWM FX last year should have covered our losses. However, they have been subject to a police raid and allegations of fraud and money laundering.

Have I won?

We are playing crap rugby with players who look knackered and often injured, I'm not trying to be funny by the way.
2 years ago, I subscribed to it. But I'm honestly not sure anymore.

RE the loss on the accounts.
IL mentioned that a long time ago, he also suggested that 2015 would return the club to profit.

Did this return to profit expectation come with an expected decent CC run and PO success?
