If memory serves me right the Wigan RL board were on the verge of taking the Rugby club to play their games at the Reebok, love him or hate him if it weren't for Dave Whelan there wouldn't be a professional RL club in Wigan today.

His book is very interesting on the subject of who sold Central park, one or two of you should give it a read, it may just surprise you!

I wouldn't believe a word that comes out of his mouth tbh.

Wasn't that only for a short time until our own,new rugby stadium was built??

Yes but where would that have been built?

The council were determined that only one stadium was to be built for the use of both clubs.

Well does this mean that there is now no problem with c/cup or play off matches for us !

Back in your box wigan

the town is all ours

Any takers on bournemouth away on a tuesday night?

Don't come back Latics.

Just in case nobody is aware of this but Dave Whelan broke his leg in the 1960 FA Cup Final.

Bye bye Latics!

I reckon that this evening is a suitable time to draw a line and move on from any irrational hatred of our fellow inhabitants.
