Out last night for couple of pints and called in at The Globe At Standish.
It is a place where my parents always like to go. They go with friends, one of whom is a director at Wigan Athletic and his wife.
As you do, went over to ask if they wanted a drink and had a bit of a chat. I don’t know how true this is, but it’s certainly from a reliable source.

“Planning permission has been sought by Wigan Warriors to build a new stadium in Marus Bridge” :?:

Normally, “reliable sources” are anonymous. I’m sure the fella is just made up about being quoted on a public forum.
If they’ve actually applied for planning permission (as opposed to it just being a load of made up guff) then, if not already in the public domain, it’ll be in it soon enough

I hope it’s not true, they’re like part of the family now. ;)
Correct me if im wrong, but didn’t the warriors sign like a 100 year lease at the beginning of last year?
It was a 50 year agreement. There is nothing to stop them moving, the lease thing was to ensure they have a home. We have to honour the lease if they want to stay, but they don’t have to stay.
Planning permission costs next to nothing, probably just an off the cuff enquiry, should they ever fall out with Uncle Dave. I think the present arrangement suits both the football and rugby club and it would be costly to either club to change things.
great now we can stick our banners all round the ground without having to put them up every home game not that there is that many but am proud of mine anyway :P
