      Should be interesting now the young special one has a new home. If he act’s anything like he did when Robbie was or wasn’t going to Liverpool then we should be getting an hourly update via the media .Let’s be honest he’ll revel in all this attention and I wouldn’t rule out a live video feed during the interviews or a fly on the wall documentary to follow. Be interesting to see if Whelan can hold out on selling our key players if Robbie comes knocking especially macmanaman. Somehow i doubt it.Spoke to 4 long time supporters on Saturday who are adamant that if he does flog macmanaman then they wont renew as they rekon we need to get an on the pitch return on our 6 year investment in him.

      “OUR 6 year investment”?

      And how much, pray, have you invested in him?

      Don’t tell me you buy tickets – you are paying to watch football, be entertained (sometimes), and we are pretty much the cheapest in the League. The money you pay is for your benefit – never once have you thought “I’ll go to that match because it’ll help Wigan Athletic’s future player development”.

      Whelan has invested a lot in him and the club – if he decides he wants to recoup some of that input then that is up to him. And if someone is going to take their ball home and not buy tickets for next year because we may sell one player then that says an awful lot more about them than about the clb.

      Got there before me, Garswood.

      It was bad enough when we had a bunch of know-all armchair managers, now we have a gang of wannabee-neverwillbe chief execs and chairmen.

      Our investment!! Ha!

        Cormorants, crayfish, gooseanders, mink, otters, EU’s. polution, mergansers, and the occasional seal. They are the problems.

            How much do you think we’d get if we flogged him now ? He’s still in the early stages of his career .Im sure we’d get alot more if he proves to be as good as I think he is.Do you want us to bounce back next season ? ? Don’t you think a player like Macmanaman would be a huge advantage ?As for Griff ,the man is still struggling to come to terms with Robbies 4 year relegation plan coming to fruition that he now resigns himself to addressing posters grammar !!! Ours, his ? Whoevers investment the fact is to move season tickets Whelan will have to give supporters a modicum of optimism and I’m afraid no matter how cheap they are some folks decision to buy will hinge on just that .

                Are you possibly getting a bit carried away with yourself here fella?

                Nobody has said or indicated anything to say Macca will be leaving.

                Not to mention if the information is correct that he is contracted for the next three years then for an effective premier league winger I would say the going rate is £10 million +

                Not saying we should flog him, or anyone. But it happens, it always does. Your job is to support the club, Whelan’s job is to run it as he sees fit because you aren’t qualified to do it.

                As for Martinez leaving and me being upset about it, you really have a lot of growing up to do, don’t you? (You and your mates too, by the sounds of it, if they are considering walking away from the club they purport to support because the Owner might do something they don’t like). I was surprised Martinez left but, unless whoever comes in totally dismantles all he has put in place both on and off the pitch, it really doesn’t concern me one little bit. I’ll get behind the next man, within reason. Players and managers come and go, fans and supporters stay. Well, apart from you and your mates, obviously.

                  What if you are a Blackburn Rovers fan ?

                  Can you compare Whelan’s running of the club to that of the Venky’s in any scenario?
