Well I’m stood outside Crewe’s ground and can’t see much going on.
When are you lads arriving? :dry:
Will the pies be cheaper now we are in the championship
lolNo – but there will be fewer prawn and onion ones
Relegation clauses – paras 2 and 3:
“The Spaniard says he has a relegation clause in the contract he signed last summer, adding it’s only fair his wages drop in line with his players if the Latics go down.
He said: “There are relegation clauses in all of the contracts. I have one too. It’s about having a sound financial plan and if you drop your league status, you’re dropping your budget. Everyone should be affected.”

Why will we lose 5,000 a game?
Loads of more local games, and on the assumption that we start being more competitive (a big assumption, I accept) I don’t think we’ll lose that many home supporters.
I in fact think our average attendance could be up.
I take it you agree with the likes of garswood then, he’d have us believe that Martinez has virtually nothing to do with signings & contracts, must have been Whelan who fancied raiding Swansea then, apologies all round I stand corrected, It’ll just be Kenwright who took a shine to Kone too .I too will try again, slowly, and then give up.
I didn’t say he had nothing to do with the signings if you read my post.
The manager decides who he would like – either already in the squad to retain, or to “raid”. The business side of the company – because that’s what a football club is – decide whether that is financially feasible. They have the final say whether they will stump up the cash (or offer extended contracts) etc. A good business management team will try to support their manager. A poor team (eg Newcastle at present) won’t.
Whelan could look into suing Martinez as he appears now to have been very underhand, if he rated Joel & Alcaraz so highly, why weren’t they given Wigan contracts ? Who wanted the fairly low buy out clause in Kone’s contract, was there an attempt to get rid of the clause ?Do you really think that the manager alone decides who to keep and what contract deals to offer?
Whelan watches the games. Jonathan aJckson watches the games. They know how good or otherwise a player is. They know how much they are being paid without having to look at messageboards or the Press for speculation.
They know the terms of the contracts, particularly the small print. They speak with the manager to discuss with him the players we need, and listen to who he thinks he needs for the current situation and objectives, and approve (or otherwise) what he asks for.
“Whelan could look into suing Martinez….”?
:lol: :lol: :lol:
Sorry if you view it as pedantic but he asked about WAFC, not WASC.
Some clubs do have a club AGM. Nowhere was there mention of the Supporters Club.
Sorry?
The OP asked when the AGM was, and I pointed out I believe there isn’t one. What’s pedantic about that?
One of my Norwich supporting friends has put this on his personal FB status:
“After 4yrs, 78 goals, 3 player of the season awards, 2 promotions, hat trick v Blue scum, goals v man utd, Chelsea, Arsenal, Liverpool to name but a few, upset opponents fans. I must thank Grant Holt for so many happy times. Thanks for the memories. WFLGH”, and in 19 hours has 50 “likes”.Perhaps the “Martinez groupies” as you call them have now moved on, whereas you still seem obsessed about him, even though he’s no longer our manager, as others are about Wigan rugby.
If you want to put a bet about him being the first to be sacked then go ahead. It’s your money. No-one really cares.
The thread is about the odds on who will win the Championship – something that is relevant to us.
