Anyone asking stupid questions should be made to hand their details and season ticket over at the door and banned from ever entering the ground again.

To be fair I’m also seeing a few posting how good and transparent it was. I’m just astounded at the lack of anything from the club for those who couldn’t attend.

Budget next year for a halfback
Didn’t quote a figure but will look to bring someone new in.

Still haven’t decided on the new coach

But the club will love this. For every absurd question is another minute or two wasted (a bit like running the clock down in a game by getting up to play the ball like a pensioner). Job done.

To be fair I've seen a few good but general tweets about the Forum, without them going into specific details, by a couple of people who attended.

Recruiting a new marketing director

I can’t say anymore or I will have to shoot my sons

A few poor questions but on the whole they enjoyed it

I still don’t understand the rationale for not having the press there

So ... on the basis of all this, did nobody take the opportunity to ask the pertinent questions?

getting a bit late, all the good ones will be gone by now

I suspect it will be Miller from Wakefield

IL and Rads explained right at the beginning why it was a blackout so to speak.

It was very very interesting and if icould have asked 100 questions I think the presentatiin that they did for about an hour that was broken down into 5 sections and was very very informative answered 95 of them

It is true there were a couple of stupid questions, and knowing the guy personally that everyone will talk about all ill say is he got 5mins, it didnt massively detract from the evening (although I accept it is wasted time).

The lad who I went with and myself said that we thought the club went over and above in a lot of their statements and explanation tonight.

Having some tea now
If people want to ask questions ill do my best to answer later
And give a brief summary

Overall imo I would say it was a very good, transparent and informative event

That's question 1, why they felt the need to exclude or keep loads of people in the dark.

Glad to hear it was a good night tho. It's just mega frustrating, that the club are happy to keep others guessing or waiting.

I'll wait to see what the reasoning was, but I doubt it's worth angering plenty of fans.

Thanks Mate

What was the reasons for the ‘blackout’?
A summary of the salient points would be most welcome

Always good to hear from someone who was actually there.

Just seen on Twitter that the club has asked people in attendance not to mention why there's been a blackout.

Cloak and dagger stuff and we get everyone's favourite journalist to break the news to us peasants tomorrow.

1. What is happening with the stadium lease/Latics rebranding it etc?
2. When will we address the goal-kicking issue?
3. Why bring Mike Danson in? Why didn’t he fund the Wigan Sporting Plan of 2020?
4. How did George Burgess pass a medical?
5. What is the plan to build crowds?
6. What further plans are there to bring in additional revenue?
7. Why is the retail set up so poor (less choice than other Hummel teams, no permanent shop)?
8. Why does our social media team ignore 99% of genuine queries in 2021 digital world?
9. Are the club targeting a world class replacement for J Hastings?
10. What is happening with Orrell?
11. Have our main sponsor gone bust? Have we secured a new one for 2022?
12. Why didn’t the club stream this event?
13. Is he happy with the culture at the club?

I think that will cover most of what people want to know. Also why do the club. Ot want us to be told why there has been a blackout?
