Quote: Rogues Gallery "Very good interview with Ian Lenagan on there now. Interesting bit at the end about bringing the three Wigan venues together!!'"


I watched the interview myself this evening and Rogues is right in what he says, it was a very interesting half an hour interview.
The point that really got me thinking was the comments about the administration side of the British game, he must have touched on it at least three times.
IL especially made the point about correct sponsorship and lack of it and more importantly the type and length of the present TV deal.
IL when asked if he had any regrets about his time at Wigan replied that one would be when he tried to raise his concerns 3 years ago about how the game was being run (if you remember at the time it was talked about has being a take over of S/L). IL said that he regretted not pursuing the points he had brought up with S/L and at the time he had the backing of the top clubs but as always the majority dragging their feet.
The interview is on Wigan TV and only open I think to Wigan TV subscribers, but I think interviews like this should be open to all forum fans ( not only Wigan fans) so that they can try and put pressure on the Rugby League through their Clubs (if the said Clubs are interested) to try and improve all of S/L.

Worth listening to the whole 30 odd mins. Very good interview IMO. Thought him placing Carmont at the top of the tree for imported signings was very good as was his mention of how important Gleeson was to the victories that season.

Not sure how or what he means by bringing the Wigan venues together. Orrell is supposed to be a state of the art training facility and gives us a pitch for academy games so its a place I reckon most clubs will be envious of. What is wrong with that?

I thought that odd, too. Would have to be around the Robin Park complex if at all, we aren't going to get a new stadium anywhere, and I don't really see the point or the feasibility of moving the other two setups near to the DW.

[size=100:2md8k3b3][b:2md8k3b3]'Do you remember when we had that meeting in Orlando? We talked about how we were knocked out the previous year by Leeds. And at the end, I asked you one question. "Do you want to be a semi-final team? Or do you want to do something special?" You all said you wanted to win. But talking is easy – it needed you to believe. It needed you to work hard – harder than you had – and make sacrifices. You did all that. you worked for each other. You stuck together when it was tough. And because of your efforts, you sit here tonight as champions. I'm proud of you. Be proud of yourselves. You've done something special.'

Which three venues is he speaking about specifically - the DW, the new Central Park school-type thing and Orrell the training ground?

Economies of scale?
The only place to build would logically be car park 1 or join up the bit between the soccer dome & the DW.
Anywhere between the river & the canal would be too prone to flooding.
Although hasn't there been quite a bit spent on facilities at Orrell ? Can't see that being trashed any time soon. Unless the council want to build on it & issue a CPO. Or is he considering pooling resources with the wendyballers & moving over to Chorley?
