No not a fabricated lie - but IL can hardly come out and say "we want the Latics to go down" even though it may be better for our club. |

Has he actually handed the stadium over to Latics? I'm sure Whelco are the major shareholders in the stadium and both us and Latics pay rent to them. |

Contracts have duration's so what happens if at the end of the contract Latics are struggling in the Championship or League 1 with low revenue? The simple answer would be to charge us more for rent, it's a basic concept really. |

Do you know what kind of deal was signed or are you thinking too much for yourself? The simple fact is you dont know whether Latics going down will impact on the Warriors finances or not.
The best thing about these forums is the number of posters having opinions on subjects they have no knowledge on at all.  |

And then they have the cheek to try and put people in their place with their made up tripe.

I was reading an article earlier today (although the article was actually written in 2010) stating that the stadium was to be handed over into Wigan Athletics control. Whether this actually happened or was just another one of his "promises" though I can't find out. |

I remember that , but like you I can't find anything which states he has actually done it. |

Unfortunately I don't know the details. But I would be surprised and dissapointed if a financial contract entered into by one party can be directly adversely affected by the playing performance of another completely seperate organisation. That would be an unusual way of doing business.

If what I am saying is tripe, kindly humour me and explain why you think that it would be bad for us if Latics went down. |

I'd love to know why some people think Latics getting relegated will somehow make it easier for Lenagan to buy the ground? Never mind what is in it for Wigan RL to spend £x millions to buy it in the first place.
This owning an asset must be better than renting/leasing is Daily Star economics in it's most basic form.

Have any of you thought that if Latics do own the ground and in the course of time they do go bust, then the ground will be owned by the Recievers and you'll get locked out.

Seeing as the ground won't be owned by the receivers, I suggest I may have just stopped a wet dream tonight.  |
