Possibly because they had only raised a third of their goal, so it reminds people who had not donated yet, like me.
If I was going to be cynical, I might see it as a bit of rehab after his recent bad press...
I don't like Whelan one bit, but for his contribution.

Possibly, and if he is being genuine then fair play to him, but why wait so long

| Slightly off topic but Whelan related.
Heard there has been a 'little disagreement" between the club and the Stadium Company over the last few weeks. On the day of the Salford game Wigan officials were stunned to find that a Latics Crest imprinted into the newly laid turf at the tunnel edge leading out onto the pitch.
As the game was on SKY arrangements were quickly made to cover the crest up with a rubber mat.
I heard a discussions followed as to why:
1) The club had not been informed of such crest.
2) No crest of their own was arranged to go along side.
Whether anything came of this not heard anything since. Seems rather petty though.

Not strictly true
The club new about the crest 4/5 weeks ago, approx2/3 weeks before Salford game.
It's not imprinted into the turf just the newly laid Astor turf.
The rest is spot on, a lot of people weren't happy.

Storm in a tea cup, but still another card in the box labelled "who the fk do they think they are".
Well done DW with the contribution, but I'm too a little septic as to the "real" reasons. Wendyball team a little poorly are they? Not making enough dosh? Want to ingratiate yourself with the real sport in town Dave?
