What’s the plan moving forward with Robin Park?

I do want us to have our own ground but I can’t disagree with what you’ve said there.

New Zealand Warriors have averaged 17k this year and next year have halved their season ticket costs to get a full house every game. I don’t know how much season tickets cost at Wigan and I can guess they’ll be fairly good value for money, but could we look at reducing the cost? I accept it’s a gamble but one that may pay off long term.

That business model bankrupt Bradford.

New Zealand Warriors (and all NRL clubs) get $12.5 million from the NRL.
Super League clubs get £1.8 million.

Fair point.

our attendances are down 18% on last season and no wembley final its looking worse for this year

Does any one else see this as a possitive or just me?? Effectively we are 180k better off that the year before. Granted a loss is not good but a better loss than year before must be a good sign.

Not entirely true , many other factors at play , not least the dick measuring contest between Caisley and Hetherington over Iestyn Harris .

Hetherington yet again trying to control the sport, The guy is a disease in SL, Dilly Dilly

It’s going in the right direction definitely, regardless of the loss. Another loss is probably expected next year given the low crowds this season and another year with no Wembley with OT yet to be decided.

Weren't you supposed to be quids in after the trip to Aus? Or was that in the previous returns?

Trip to OZ was Feb 2018..........the accounts posted are to Nov 2017....

From what I recall even Lenegan isn't expecting mega money from the trip down under..the attendance in the double header was below what was expected and it impacted on it didn't or something along those lines, they won't have made a loss but I just cant see what they took from it, crowds down here and while of course you have to look for new money, you ignore the main source of income at your own peril.

I wonder if there is any intent from other SL to go down there? it does seem awfully quiet and I may be proven wrong think it won't happen again, an experiment, one backed by state government money from Aus,so always likely to get paid (im looking at you RFL and the promoter of the Denver test),but when their bean counters have gone through the books I wonder if they felt they got value for money?I doubt we will ever know.
