      Just because he says it doesn’t mean it’s true

      Your coming across as a chubbie /Vat type person :violin: :violin:

      You make me laugh, Just because he says it doesn’t mean it’s true, he talks bad language as you well know. You think you are some kind of martyr on here because you are older, You and griff should get married, You both seem to sniff the same pants.

      A martyr? I don’t think that’s the word you mean.

      Anyway…so, if Dave Whelan takes the sky money, and the transfer money, please can you explain what is used to fund the running of the club?

      Before you answer, have a read of this article from the Guardian. It’s a few years old now, but still very relevant.

      http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2009 … eague-debt

      Highlights of it are:

      Wages as proportion of turnover 89%

      Loss before tax £11.2m

      State they’re in Wigan Athletic are where they are, in the JJB Stadium and in the Premier League, solely due to the patronage of local market trader made good, Dave Whelan. Interest free loans from his holding company were increased to £35.6m, and Wigan were given another unsecured loan of £7.5m assumed to have come from Whelan. Barclays Bank maintained their funding at £23m because of Whelan’s backing. The accounts make it clear that Wigan, who expect to continue to make losses, would not be solvent without Whelan’s financial backing.

      Anyway, I’m off to sniff some pants.

        I think he was on telly a few weeks ago, and said he’s put around £150,000,000 of his OWN personal money into Wigan Athletic.

        Some ‘knob’ that.

        Christ, I come on here and disagree with people, banter, and all that. But to call Whelan a ‘knob’ is a joke. Shouldn’t even be kept up on here. You could expect it from ‘them men’, but from us? It’s a disgrace.

        Landgate banned me for calling him a ‘pr*ck’ last week. That was debatable. Whelan a knob? Not debatable.

        Gone downhill this site. :banana-skier:

        Ha ha, good use of the skier, Dave.

        Yosser, you really are beyond a joke. You can’t be that daft, so I assume your anti-Whelan stance is related to some past job loss at a Whelan-owned company? You and Bicky should swap sob stories. From your daft rant last night, I would have no trouble believing you were the Marketing Director for Poole’s Pies, to be honest

            Hurray! Dave posts something positive for a change.

            You should do it more often. Having a pessimistic view of things is a bad thing. It can lead to depression and suicidal tendencies.

              See how suicidal I am at 10.30pm Saturday evening, when I’m in Angels Paradise with some young fillies flange being flashed in my face. :drool:
