We'll never replace Central park. This stadium (I forget what is called now as it's name changes more than the ideas to help stop covid) is bloody rubbish. Even at it's best in atmosphere it never replicated Central park. Selling that stadium Wigan rugby really lost something. I think we should try and fund our own stadium but it won't happen because rugby League in general in this country is on its back side. I don't care about the colour of the seats but it's a slap in the face. I remember being about 7 and walking into Springfield park when I was at my Nan's and it was ok I guess. The football team wouldn't have this stadium if it wasn't for wigan rugby. I'd love to break away now but we missed the boat when rugby was of a good standard and exciting and we all went to watch. I'd leave the football team to it and I'd be happy to put my money into the kids teams and watch the talent bloom and be successful in the NRL. Just they have no real platform to show their talent. All this I blame on the rfl. They've shafted so many teams and their project is failing spectacularly...... If Wigan, a top four team so far and I don't know how, can finish at the top end of the league then I don't see how new fans will ever come to watch this. Change the colour of the seats change everything. We shouldn't pay for mediocre rubbish and I'm not doing.

| Quote: ComeOnYouWolves "I'll add my two penneth in. I think the deal was Tesco would pay for the shell of the stadium and then the club had to fund the fitting of the stadium. Where the shell of the stadium ended i presume was the bricks and mortar plus supporter seating. All interior works were paid for by the club. I think it was 10-15m tesco paid. I may be wrong
Either way we got a new stadium, something we needed. Tesco got a large store which hopefully they benefitted from also.
As much as we Warrington - Wigan have a rivalry. Wigan RL deserve to have there own stadium. What did happen to all the money from Central Park? Just read it was 12m that Tesco paid for Central park....'"
they paid for the land and building, thats 90 percent of the cost......I know the fittings were done by Warrington but come on you got a ground for free |
