Why do we need to have our own ground? We get a better deal financial from using the DW, and as long as the playoff mess doesn't happen again then whats the problem with it?

I think the point was that IL doesn't have a bottomless pit of money to finance building us a ground. And probably for that reason, he is happy to tell us staying at the DW is the better option.

Were laughing all the way with the deal we have with the DW.

Why change when were on to a real winner ?

plus the powers that be will not allow a xecond stadium in the town.

Did Simon Moran build Warringtons ground?
How much money does he have?

What's the relevance of that old man?

So building a new stadium is just a matter of having a pile of money, is it?

My thoughts too. Yes CP was a loss but let's be real. This is 2009. CP was antiquated and in this modern era of Super League, if we want to be taken seriously to the masses we need to have new, modern stadiums like Robin Park, Galpharm, KC, HJ etc

Ever heard of planning? There are planning restrictions that does not allow a second stadium in the town, so to that point, jog on.

As to personal worth I believe IL is a mile in front having said that my one brain cell has not the QI to work out how to ask for both his and DW's accounts(which i am sure they will happily supply if I did), so it's just something I believe to be true. For some reason i think I saw an article stating IL as the 50th richest man in the UK and I know DW is no where near that.

Might be wrong though.

But thanks for the constructive comments.

Is there? Since when? Just thinking of this town specifically we have had 2 stadiums in Central Park and Springfield. Just looking towards other towns and cities: Manchester, Leeds, Bradford, Hull, Twickenham etc

Thanks, following the content of that post the only thing left un-certain is whether you're on the bike or in the trolley?

All of which are cities, excepting Twickenham which has probably got around probs with one of the grounds being a national stadium (and RU bias ofc). But if you think there is any sense in building another stadium in Wigan when neither team can fill the one we already have on a regular basis, get your hand in your pocket, get the plans passed through, and get another stadium built.... Get back in the real world for goodness sake.

In which case the Council are breaking it already.

I didn't say there was any sense in building another stadium (although if I had the money I would), I was merely pointing out an inaccuracy in London Robster's post. Well done on misreading the post though.

Yes i did sorry. But you gave very poor examples to back your argument.
