It's a good business move, I'm sure it can't be good for Whelan financially if lots of our fans decided they wouldn't set foot in a stadium named after him.

Nice gesture from Whelan, he must know that it won't sit well with Latics fans.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS
For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.
For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.
Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg |

I think even the Latics fans would acknowledge that Billy B has been probably the greatest player ever to represent either of the clubs. He has also been a fine ambassador for the town in general and is one of the most modest men you could ever meet, a true legend.

With the vast majority I would agree but you know there'll be a small minority who won't see it that way. |

Nice PR stunt to placate the RL fans.
I still am uncomfortable on account of the meglamania of it all.

| There will be a football named stand too, they are just hyping the rugby one.
I cannot wait for the reaction on here when people find themselves in the 'Roberto Stand', especially if his bias for latics continues and that is the West Stand  .
I wonder if, when they change the seats that the ground will match the DW corporate identity and be red, black and white. |

Which "Star" are the Latics going to name?
I can see it now "The Tommy Gore Stand"

He'll name the south stand the Roberto Martinez stand, the west the Jimmy Bullard stand, the East the Paul Jewell stand and then give the away end(the North) to a true great in Bill Boston just to prove a point and show us where we stand in the pecking order!
Suprised he didn't just name a set of bogs after him.

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

I think its a nice thing for him to do, but lets be honest if latics had legends of their own, which they don't, they would of been named after those, I feel it's just because they don't have any. I still think its really good though. Which stand do you think it will be? I hope it's the east.

| Quote: Andy Greg "Nice Bit of PR from Mr DW. The bit i did not get was this bit.
Most of the work will take place once Wigan Warriors have played their final match of the rugby season in late July with the first public viewing on August 14
Now i thought we played until mid September in the League i must be wrong unless we are going to the LSV for the last few games ![]()
Lazy d journalist. The real reason is that the JJB sponsorship runs until 31st July - thats when it will change. The 14th August he (or she) refers to is our match v Warrington.
