Its a joke that its not been sorted yet there is no rule about playing 24 hours before hand. Hitler Whelan just doesnt want it to go ahead.

Hitler Whelan???? Its his stadium and hence he can do what he likes!! Always like a good laugh though at the expense of the Pie Eaters.

Turnover isn't relevant? No turnover, no profit.

“Turnover is vanity, profit is sanity, cash flow is king", most Premier League clubs generate mass turnovers yet have substantial losses.

Sorry MKC, but, Rogues is correct. Would you sooner operate at a turnover of £1 with a penny profit, or at 50p with 10p profit? Profit is king, turnover is just show.

The rest of it though is quite funny.

Yes, profit is King, but to make a profit you need turnover. Fortunately in the last two years we've had both.

And after all this its at the DW.

And the North Stand is shut because of a wedding. It just keeps getting better

Maybe the wedding will be more interesting

Great news, long may that continue, but, your point is?

My original point was that there was more money coming through our club than the so called biggest club in RL, if you go back a couple of pages you'll find the original comments.

Just read on sportinglife "Wigan were willing to play on the Monday but BBC were desperate to show the tie of the round " . Amazing really ... BBC can't even guarantee when the Superleague show will start on a Monday night , but what a flap they get into when their broadcasting schedules are threatened. Maybe Rugby League needs to be re-branded as Snooker .

Profit is calculated assuming your debtors (from sales, i.e. turnover) actually pay up and don't go bankrupt. So strictly speaking, "Cash is King".
You are spot on though about turnover, it can easily 'flatter to deceive'.

I found them.......

I still stand behind my post which you quoted for some reason as if it was incorrect, that went along the lines that a bigger profit ultimately will be more beneficial than a bigger turnover.

I would be happy to learn that we were bigger in both departments, as I don't know, but, then again ultimately don't care, as I support my team rather than whoever says is the biggest team. The intention was to explode the myth that some posters may have had, not necessarily you, that a big turnover was the be all and end all.

Wasn't the original thread about ground ownership and the ability, or lack of it to stage a cup game? Tiressome

Cheers WO it was hard agreeing with a Wiganer in the first place but thought he had a bit of a point.

Will the guests leave early if they don't get a slice ?

At Least all the Relatives will be in one Arena...

Hope it doesn't end in a food fight, a la the end of Carry On Loving

Those gravy stains can be a bugger to shift from a white shell suit

Come on Lefty,Wiganers are to tight to waste a good pie.

Shell suits the pies havn't caught up with 80s fashion yet,they still dress like they are living in 70s.

You're Wigan rugby, you'll do as you're told.

Sorry Bobby, forgot about the Wigan fashion time-shift
Trouble is, Wiganers aren't so much bell-bottoms as bell-ends

the bride will be easy to spot, she'll be the one in the white shell suite!
