MancWanderer Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 He’d be better getting his focus on the RL side. Wigan have been absolutely mullered last two games. Embarrassingly so. He’s a massive RL fan and wants to get Wigan back on top. Can only think that this investment is to get hold of the ground and strengthen the RL side of things. Maybe. Maybe not. Who knows. Fuck em.

Big E Posted June 14, 2023 Share Posted June 14, 2023 They have been bought by a billionaire and they are now on a far greater financial footing as it stands. He may run it sustainably or he may sound a bit in our bond scheme and use the profits to run em. We don’t know. the sad part is we are now destined to face them again. They have clearly become rivals no matter what we try and say. Their current team beats ours. Let’s hope they have to reduce wages drastically or we will be embarrassed again. fucking pie eating cunts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why would this even be a thing on day 1 of the transfer window ? Surely we are expecting 5 or 6 signings that for me would be 1st team starters and not fillers.

Far too many stooped to their level with all the 'jelly and icecream' bollocks, and now a load of Bolton fans look like thick cunts with egg on their faces. 🤦♂️ I don't think there's egg on any Bolton fan's face. Sure, they're in slightly less immediate danger of going pop, but there's still: A - No way of knowing Danson's endgame, for certain. B - The fact they're now in the back pocket of their longest and bitterest rivals. All 200 of their fans have had a tiny little taste of what we went through, and they're far from coming up smelling of roses yet. (I still can't believe how incredibly lucky they are though, christ.)

Popeye doyle Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 Dansen is first and foremost a businessman, second a rugby man and third Wigan Athletic owner in that order. Everything screams he’ll run them sustainably and it will be easier for him to sell the club on, when he wants to. His other option of bankrolling and gambling on reaching the Premiership, is just that, a gamble. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Site Supporter Biggish Dave Posted June 15, 2023 Site Supporter Share Posted June 15, 2023 Even if this fella wanted to chuck cash at it, ffp means they won't be able to do it for years because they can't generate the income. They can do what they want for me. I've loved seeing their fans suffer and it won't be the last time. This goes 1 of 2 ways They are run sustainable as a L1 or L2 club OR, this all happens again within 5 years Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blackburn were also very close to the wind with it too. Might be talking bollocks though. Wouldn't be the first or last time Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dr. Feelgood Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 FFP certainly still exists & is consistent throughout the EFL. The Prem's operates differently and the Parachute clubs seem to be able to play games a bit. It is cumulative over a 3 year window & this pile of cack overspend last year. I am unsurprised, but rather pissed that the turd continues to float. When McClean turns up next season I'm taking my gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ani Posted June 15, 2023 Share Posted June 15, 2023 https://www.efl.com/-more/governance/embargoes/ Embargo still in place and given they are settling all debts assume it will be revoked. Although not sure why they announce a three window embargo if it only applies till debt is paid. Within an embargo transfers are allowed but need EFL approval so might be pretty meaningless.
