The JJB logo on the top of the West stand has changed as well. It is still a rugby ball shape but has a cheap square DW logo it it. It looks ubelievably cheap!

By the way look at the WIGAN on the East stand

Happy time...:



That is terrible, I didn't realise how bad it looked. Looks like a child has done it, typical tight Whelan, surely it wouldn't cost that much to do it properly and not ruin the stadium.

The DW doesnt look that bad in the south from this picture.

The Wigan is utterly embarrasing, its not even central to the stand.

As someone said, surely the letters are going to be outlined, or something. Even DW himself must be embarrased by that.

I knew we were sticking by Gaz Hock but I'm sure they could have found a better first job for him?

Yesterday is history, tomorrow is a mystery....... I will look to the moment, and miraculously, the future will take care of itself. Radio 5 Live, Sat, April 14th, 2007,...Dave Whelan, "In Wigan, rugby will always be king" 'I was certain, positive, convinced, and yet..........unsure' 'It's only rock 'n' roll, but I like it' Worry will not prevent destiny from unfolding.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3632.jpg



Quote: andyed-wiganrl "I like that mate, very novel and clever. tbh once we get the S Stand as the Billy B stand all wiganers should refer to the West Stand as being in honour of Graeme West so that by usage it will almost unofficially become the Graeme West stand....Let the shatics have TWO rugby stands in their pipe and smoke it!!

Classic Idea!!

Almost deserves a thread of its own anyone think?!?!'"



I believe its the West and East stands that are to be renamed, one is the Billy Boston stand and the other the Springfield Park stand, which way round I'm not sure.

That's quite interesting - would Wigan fans rather have a Billy B stand or a Central Park stand?

Would make some sense to have the East Stand as the Springfield Park stand as it's at that end of town. Hopefully the Billy Boston stand will be the South Stand and the Graeme West stand should be left as it is.

If I were a Latics fan I'd be shamed that a person's name connected to their club couldn't be found to justify naming a stand after him. Calling it the Springfield Park stand merely reaffirms their status as two bit club with no history or tradition.

just goes to show that in the grand history of wigan, latics have a very very small part to play. the sooner they realise that the better!
