i can't believe i am reading this utter rot that goes with the heading of this thread

wigan rugby and wigan athletic are two diffrent clubs diffrent management and diffrent rules

if you believe the headline then you must also believe that the 20 million that DW as promised must also mean that we wont be able to buy new players for the next 10 years or so

get real

why would you think that fazes money has been spent on roberts? Lindsay is our chairman so he looks after the money and everything. Wealan just i think has a share in the club. Warriors and Latics are two different clubs. And another point a piece that encouraged me before was when I was listening to Granada Whealan said that the two clubs are like one now. I thaught for a minute and then said to my self that must mean that he doesnt expect us to move ground.

No that is because he is paying for the entire Latics squad to go on holiday to Barbados. (He is as well, heard him say it in an interview on the radio!).

We could buy a decent second row with the money from air fares.
