The only person to have shown interest in the past has been Trevor Hemmings who puts in 4,000,000 a year at Preston but he is notable for being tight with money.

An issue onto itself. Entering the realms of dreams here admittedly but someone who is willing to spend the money required. I’d like to point out I’m only for that if he isn’t willing to invest to rectify the issues, one would hope and presume he is willing to do so in the first instance.

That's always the problem. People talk as if it would be a quick fix.

IL has won us much silverware during his tenure. He's also in the process of giving us a brand-new Wigan Warriors HQ right next to the stadium.

We're all upset with the way things are going, but I think people should be careful what they wish for.

Don’t misunderstand my point - I do not wish for IL to sell up, on the contrary I want him to invest where it’s needed and rectify the clear issues we have. If he can’t - why? If he is unwilling to do so, then regrettably it’s time to sell up which as you and I have correctly pointed out is not as a quick fix or simple as the phrase initially sounds.

Agreed, that’s the point I was trying to make. It would be like Wane out all over again.

Sports clubs are notorious money pits. We have been lucky that Lenagan - as a fan - has been willing to pump his money into it at a rate of six figures per year.

He’s pumped his money in, we’ve won trophies and crowds have decreased. Meaning more money is needed.

I’d love for a multi millionaire Wigan fan to come out the blue and fund big name signings but they’re few and far between. The grass isn’t always greener.

Correct. Better the devil you know. Overall IL has been great for us.
It was me that mentioned him going to to the football league and perhaps taking off the day to day running of the club.

Let's not forget the salary cap 'admin error' that very nearly landed us a two points deduction as well to everything else this season.

I certainly think it's time IL surrounds himself with some strong leaders to refocus the club from next season as we are becoming a laughing stock.

And to think Leneghan had the nerve to blame Zak Hardaker’s arrest for drink driving (whilst a Wigan employee) on Castleford and Leeds.

That took longer thn i expected

Which of course he didn't. Don't let that stop you though..

Not good reading at all for your Club, as a rugby fan first and a leigh fan second i hope wigan sort this out soon as we need a strong wigan in the league

Been busy with the binoculars this morning Gareth. Apologies for the delay.

“Our duty of care as employers is to help Zak address the fundamental problems that he has had for some time – issues that we believe could and should have been confronted already”.
If that’s not blaming his previous clubs, I don’t know what is.

The worst part is... you’re probably not joking. What did Hardaker have for breakfast? (Don’t say coke, it’s too early).

Hemmings only bought Preston to save them from possibly going under and he bought the club at a reduced rate. He has also shown no ambition other than keeping them financially stable (nothing wrong with that) and they run on one of the lowest budgets in the championship which granted will be significantly more than a rugby league teams budget.
I just don’t see him buying Wigan, I always get the impression he didn’t really want to end up Preston’s owner but was backed into a corner and hasn’t been able to find a suitable buyer. Not sure about his love of rugby league as racing is his main interest but even though he’s one of the richest men in the country I don’t think he will be the bank roller people want.

Your clutching at straws with that one.
