Just sharing some info there’s a Wigan day saying that we are in big financial trouble and that our very future hinges on is going up as we owe so much money. 
 

I did point out that if that was the case then we certainly wouldn’t spend 500k on a striker in Jan and Ian Evatt would not still be here if that was case.  He also said Wigan were going into admin today so he can’t even get his own club info right

Fairly sure that's bollocks 

The tough sheet deal alone is worth £2.75m a season for 5 seasons 

Plenty going on that suggests we're going in the right direction

2.5 mill a year?

Not 2.5 mill total?

A lot of noise from these men that their only legitimate solution is a fan owned model. They recognise this would mean a budget of next to nowt and operating at L1 at the very best but more reasonable to expect L2 even national league. But “at least we still have a club” 

it’s a lovely read

They don't have enough 'fans' to make that work.

Hope they drop like a stone.

Really?

I thought it was £750k a season.

Was talking about it in LOV Saturday with an ex poster off here 

I mentioned 2.5

He corrected me to 2.75 

Sure he said it was per season as well 

I was pissed

I'll check

Not a prayer it’s per season

According to Sloane Street Massive (rivals era), he's is certain it is, horses mouth and all that 

Massively overshadowa what ever Reebok paid that's for sure

To be fair, it was described as a multi million pound deal which I wouldn't say £2.5m over 5 years is   

The deal also makes them a principal partner whatever that means

From what I've read they aren't short of cash  

In any case, I really don't think it's shit or bust for promotion this season
