So who's it made by and who is the sponsor mate?

made by Kooga (JJB owned) but the sponser can always be changed (when we arrange a new one)
no real rush to design the sponser on the shirts. this is usually just a logo ironed or stitched on.

JJB Sports have a 48% stake in Kooga, i'm not an expert on business but don't you have to have 51% of the shares before you can be classed as owning it (i.e. making decision without the other share holders).

quite possibly! i may be wrong in saying 'Owned'. but lets say they have a MAJOR say in the dealings!
at the end of the day, it makes sense for Kooga to go along with the thoughts and decisions of the big dog of JJB

With 48% JJB probably have the biggest share so would have a major influence over Kooga.
It's likely that JJB will not be the main sponsor of Wigan Warriors next season, how ever we don't know the state of the relationship between Wigan and JJB Sport. Is the sponsorship ending because the contract between is over or has one of the two parties pulled out on the contract.
JJB might want to try and keep Kooga as Wigans kit manufacturer so that they can still get some sort of sponsorship with Wigan. After all Kooga is a rugby only brand and the name Wigan RLFC still has a big reputation both in England and Australia.
JJB down 43% due to england performances, JD at 23.3%... plus, as JJB close many stores, SD open and refurbish stores (bolton town centre for 1)
anyway...
I think that JJB will be involved somewhere along the line, maybe take the place of Tote on the sleeve - afterall we do play in the JJB Stadium, perhaps have to be connected somehow for marketing purposes.
