Lots of conditioning staff and other coaches were appointed a while back but weren't made public. All such appointments will be announced in the future

Yes, a new conditioner has been added along with a few other members of staff. I can't remember who and in what positions though.

He said they were at that gam, but he knew that their logo being emlazoned across shirts on the internet had scared them off.

Firms appreciate that the biggest value in sponsorship is the impact of announcng they are investing in the club, if this is tainted somewhat then it ill put them off.

Hence why the club made us removed this weeks images, as the deal was only signed sealed and delivered last night.

Also it does appear that the deal makes them the 'main sponsor'. Whether this was to reassure fans or they actually are, who knows.

Total non starter apparently.

Can anybody who went guess as to how many people attended tonight?

looks like i were right about sam tompkins not being ready last season!!



did you ask IL a question about how he could have done things differently??

There are no rules around the 50% limit now anyway, so it is up to IL what he wants to spend on the cap (up to the limit obviously). Weren't your cheapest match tickets something like £12-14 last season? At most grounds the cheapest ticket is £17. That adds up.

I'm surprised about the merchandise comments though. I sometimes think that is where clubs like Wigan struggle, as they are slightly limited with design to keep the fans happy, however it makes it easy for fans to wear old kits without feeling out of place. As a Wire fan, our kits are sufficiently different enough each year to consider purchasing. If we had white with a P&B v each year, I wouldn't buy one every season.

Thats quite reassuring to hear.

player, and it's good to hear Roberts has finally landed in Wigan think he will be abit of a Carmont next season and pleasantly surprise some people.

The rumours about Wigan playing at LSV are true.


We will be playing there in a couple of weeks - other than that, complete $hite!

If we have another 20k on the cap why not offer part of this or all of it to blowother clubs offers out of the water, cause we are not gonna get much with 20k even if we do send players out on loan.

In regards to paying 75k for this un named player, why wont he pay it?

Im glad I didnt go, sounds rather naff.

Can anyone tell us the sponsor yet?

Noble has also promised us a more entertaining brand of rugby this season.
