      We owe a great debt of gratitude to Dave Whelan because wether you love him or loath him without him we would not be watching Premier League football. I have no doubt he invested his own money in Latics how much I guess we will never know but fair play to the man.

      As for his reasons for doing so, well it was either a labour of love or the sceptic in me thinks a business deal. Through Wigan Athletic he got hundreds of millions of pounds worth of advertising that a company the size of JJB’s could never have afforded. And even now with DW sports and the naming the stadium every time we are on T.V he gets great publicity.

      So me thinks it was a mutually beneficial agreement which lets be honest has been one hell of a ride.

      Hindley, this is one of those rare moments where we agree totally on something…

      That’s exactly what Whelan has gained out of his association with Wigan Athletic – not money in his back pocket as Yosser naively believes.[/quote]

      Glad we agree on something Standish this may be the start of a long and happy friendship :angry-argument:

      Or may be not eh

          I’m also a little perturbed that Yosser seemes to think that Poole’s Pies was some kind of ubiquitous McDonald’s of the pie world.

              he’s givin the rugby a 50 year lease on it

              I wonder if that’s why DW seems unconcerned about the loss of Premiership Football!!!.
              Been on the PL agenda earlier this year to ban all duel use stadia,maybe he knows something we don’t. :think: :think: :think:
