I'm sure 10 years of Wigan buying the league would be great for the game.

Wigan fan probably new to the game and wishes he could go back to 1988.

I dont know what to say to that

Why is it that some supporters are jealous of what Wigan did in the 80s and 90s



Did they make a profit yes they did



Did they have one of the best followings in the league YES



Did they sell more shirts then any other team YES



Was they hated by most of the League YES



Was it great when your team beat them OH YES



Did they lose players to the RFU or NRL NO



NO Im not a Wigan fan and yes I do hate them because yes I'm Jealous

Typical, pathetic, club-centric, desperate-to-buy-success Pie Eater. Last time you took your club to the brink of bankruptcy and beyond and sacrificed your stadium for it.



Times have changed and the rest of the league aren't interested in being dragged with you in a spiral of Wigan-driven wage inflation, all motivated by the obsessive/compulsive demands of Wigan fans to return to the "glory days" when all the other clubs would stand aside as they bought every available trophy.



The game is bigger than the selfish desires of Wiganers.

No they didn't. That's why Wigan are squatting in Dave Whelan's stadium and it's why thousands of pie eaters now push trolleys on the old hallowed turf.

Did they almost bankrupt themselves as a result? YES.

Leneghan is to frugal to let it happen again. Thats the bad old Pie past.

You sure about these?

Jealous??

I think you may want to re-word that bit. They may have made a marginal profit but over the years the lost more than they made, hence why you now lease a stadium from your Wendyball friends and your old famous historic ground is a carpark

They made such big profits they had to sell their ground to pay off their debts and rent from the local football team.
