Nothing like the money this guy rumoured to have bought a stake in us has I believe. I don’t really know but he couldn’t take Latics over alone from what you read.

Be careful not to break it. Did you know that he broke his leg in a game once?

I am more inclined to think that Lenagan has got involved because he is more concerned about the future of the Stadium.

Going off on a wild speculation/hope trail here but if true and the chap that’s invested is worth £700m+ could we look to finally have our own stadia again?

He is the 184th richest person in Brirtain

184 MIKE DANSON
Media
£743m ▲£88m
Danson, 55, a former management consultant, sold his Datamonitor market research group in 2007 for £502m and his proceeds and previous share sales came to £193m. He has since built up City-based information provider GlobalData, which after its float is a £625.3m operation. Danson sold a 1.4% stake worth £7.6m last October but retains a 68.1% holding valued at £425m, up £80m in a year. He acquired the New Statesman in 2008, driving the leftwing magazine to record readership levels through digital expansion and the addition of two websites. With his wife Helen he runs the Danson Foundation, which donated £1.5m to his old Oxford college, St Anne’s, to provide bursaries to students from disadvantaged backgrounds. It also supports disabled children in Cambodia and women’s education in Uganda.
2017: £655m, 195

I have a figure of 130M in my head from somewhere

Careful what you agree to, he may want it in the garden of his gaff in Barbados.

I’d row it there in a dinghy

Haven’t really followed all of this WAFC stuff and certainly not reading 28 pages - I’ve seen a few mentions of impact on our use of the stadium; can someone sum up what the situation is around this and what our problem is?
Thanks.

There isn't one except it might cost a few quid more

There is some anonymous and potentially libelous social media speculation on twitter

The Latics fans are up in arms on social media. To say they want IL as a buyer is exaggerating the truth somewhat. I’ve read tweet after tweet of abuse directed towards IL, some even saying they’d rather the club end up in the North West Counties League than IL buy them. With little over a week to go before the self imposed deadline it’s little wonder they’re getting so angry and impatient, if it was us I’d certainly be shouting from the rooftops, but I wouldn’t be saying I’d rather we end up back at amateur level just because it was Latics that wanted to buy us. I can’t for the life of me understand that viewpoint, it’s embarrassing.

I do hope they get a buyer and that it is IL and his consortium, I’ve no love for Latics but to see them go would be a real shame. Having said that some fans are making it quite hard to have sympathy for them.
