Could this takeover see a more settled Wigan Warriors on the field. I imagine IL the past few years has had to constantly look over his shoulder and plan what if’s with Latics seeming to be in trouble for the past few years. I imagine IL has been saving cash for all possibilities but we might be willing to push the boat out once more for a big named marquee signing now we know a seemingly sound owner of Latics is in charge and has investment in the rugby.

And then became an area where only those who hated anything oval shaped were allowed to speak freely without being abused. Even the great Billy Boston was fair game at one point. |

Right now, I'd be happy with a reasonable % of the refreshment takings and the return of the flags in the south stand. Oh, and the Boston Stand being known as the Boston stand. |

Why the secrecy from Ian Lenagan if so? |

Secrecy? Maybe there's a time/place etc for these things to come out.
But I do know he announced it at a recent event linked to the ownership of Wigan Rugby, an event that only certain people linked to the club could attend. |

| Quote muttywhitedog="muttywhitedog"Great news, made all the sweeter that the stadium is now owned by someone with a foot in both camps, and although its not a complete role-reversal, it certainly feels that there are now two joint tenants at the stadium.
The coup-de-grace is the likes of Bullitt & Bickymon from CL/Latics Speyk who have spent years using cuckoo, lodgers, etc and vowed to stop going if anyone connected with the rugby bought their club now have a choice whether to eat humble pie and crawl back, or disappear for good. Maybe even "egg" will stop having to pander to the knuckledragging brigade on there.'"
IFL has got his fingers all over this. |

I can confirm that Jukesays is spot on. |

Danson owns "More than 25% but less than 50%" of Lenagan Investments Ltd - which essentially owns the club. In 2021 it looked like he had just under 28% of the shares. However there are now around 6000 more shares but I can't find anything on Companies House that details the new breakdown.
One of the new Directors of the rugby club Ben Goodman was yesterday made a Director of the Latics. He's one of Danson's people who has worked for him for a while.
