Please read the sun page 57 Karen Brady who is on the board at west ham and the FA has said that in a couple of years rugby clubs WILL NOT be allowed to groundshare with football.

Groundhog Day. I wouldn't worry there's a few football pitches on scot lane they can play there.

That's where any credence to the 'story' is lost. |

If this was to be the case (which i doubt) IL would certainly have made a statement already about future plans.

Mmhmm... legal minefield. We've got a lease until 2059, cancelling the lease early will incur serious financial penalties, and are the FA going to pay that for us and the other teams who ground share with Rugby (League & Yawnion)? Strongly doubt it.
I guess the Sun must've heard someone on Karen Brady's voicemail saying that they wished Football didnt groundshare with Rugby and it would only take a couple of years to get it pushed through.

Indeed. I take it she thinks it'll be ok to share with athletics. |

A modest fraction of the sort of money they routinely throw away on one failed England manager after another should be enough to secure us a new stadium. |

Impossible, actually, as soon it will be a breach of Premier League rules to share your ground with rugby.

I hope the FA have a bottomless pit of money ready for when they lose the various court cases for instigating breach of contract. Then again it's the Sun and Karen Brady so it'll be complete bollox.

Who actually owns the DW? Is it Wigan Athletic, WWRLFC or both? (Or neither?)

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

Neither, it's owned by Dave Whelan (Whelco) with (I think) a small percentage by Wigan council. |

| The way I see it we're in a 'win-win' situation regardless:
* Premier League Rules are not changed for clubs with existing leases, no change - WIN.
* Premier League Rules changed and (assuming WAFC are still the the PL) Wigan RL are paid millions in compensation, new ground built - WIN.
Nowt will happen though.  |

This is a non starter, the FA can't wave off legal contracts, lets face it many stadia even like Wembley rely on "other" events to keep the coffers coming in.

Conroy - Being a Latics fan i'm already immune to watching sh*te.
Sally Cinnamon - Treat the Saints forum as you would if you met a girl from St Helens. Best policy would be to avoid altogether but if you absolutely can't resist temptation then take every possible precaution.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36121.jpg |

And that's precisely the reason she should be in the kitchen sorting out her family's Christmas dinner.
