Then why doesnt everyone thank him on here? We all know he or at the very least people close to him reads it so this is just as good right? I for one feel extremely fortunate to be a fan of the team during the time i have been. The "moran" era as i shall now and ever more refer to it has been fantastic, and he hasnt just helped to save the club but has helped us make history.

For that Mr Moran i thank you.

Can you imagine if the Pies had won we wouldnt have been able to get Ian Lenagan of the mike, out of the papers, speaking at fans forums.........

THANK YOU SIMON MORAN.

my lad was so chuffed getting his picture took with you. cheers for everything.

Thanks for everything you have done for this club Mr Moran.It was a nice touch by Tony in his interview at the end off the challenge cup.With the b.b.c,to mention Simon Moran


i agree last game a big shout for him is must just a simple Moran Moran give us a wave.A long with Monas Monas give us a smile

The first time I heard him speak was last weeks RL Extra. For a minute I thought he was being serious when he said that he was going to reduce his involvement with the club. He sounded like a fish out of water on the air and I think he prefers to leave all the media stuff to Gatcliffe and his sexy stadium.
He is no doubt a major factor in us lifting a trophy for the first time in 18 years.
Top work fella.

Have you ever heard Moran speak. He is less than articulate.

That's not a criticism just a fact. He is not a confident speaker which is very strange for a successful businessman.

Ian Lenagan however is very comfortable when speaking in public.

He is probably the most suprising millionare in the world, and he'd be the first to say it.

But, he is a millionaire. And he is majority shareholder of the Challenge Cup Champions. F*ck the eloquotion lessons.

Richard Branson, for example, is another very hesitant businessman/speaker. Let Simon enjoy the moment as he prefers - a fan like all the rest of us, albeit one with the wherewithal to make the difference.

If you want an owner who is going to speak in the press week in week out about who he thinks is a good player or not then good for you. I'd rather have one who actually does things like when Adrian Morley is coming back to GB then he signs him to come to Warrington or when we look demoralised at Wakefield away he decides enough is enough and goes out and gets the best coach in the country.


Just remind us who Lenagan has signed for next year: we've got Myler and Atkins so far with more to come, f'all have signed for Wigan.

Actions speak louder than words; no matter how articulate the words may be spoken.

Great thread. The man has done a fantastic job for the club and deserves some praise.

Thank you Simon Moran

No buisness being on the pitch or on the bus, nothing more than a fan who happens to be financialy succesfull. Im sure we would all invest our millions if we could. you are NOT a player.

And neither is Douggie or any of the backroom staff that was on there. But SM OWNES the club. He can be where he wants to. As all the thread states, he is a shy person when it comes to Wires and stays in the background. Yet still, on the day we win the cup after 35 years you think what? that he should have made his own way to the TH or even walked with Jimmy Lowes. And the difference is we haven`t got the millions, none of us. But he has and he` invested a lot in us. You my friend have just made THE mot ridiculous statement of the day...no the year

absolutely spot on paul

There is no doubt in my mind that without Simon Moran this club would not be where it is now. We as fans owe him a debt of gratitude beyond calculation.

I have spoken out in favour of Mr Moran many times on this board and will continue to do so. He loves the club as much as any of us and more than some of us.

If he chooses to keep directly out of the limelight then that is his choice and I fully respect that.

An old boss of mine used to say there are those that do and those that talk about it. Mr Moran is the former and long may his ownership of Warrington Wolves continue.

[size=150IN SIMON MORAN I TRUST [/size

Brilliant mate, couldn't have said it better myself

Great post (along with PY's) . If it wasn't for Simon it would be Championship or bust now not CC winners!! So pleased for the bloke!

What knob jockey you really are.

Give me Moran over Lenagan any day of the week. The only success Lenagan has achieved is creating a team of drug dependant, overweight and extremely average RL players. You dont even have your own stadium ffs.

I have had some experience with Mr Moran and I guarantee that he doesn't want or seek any publicity, he doesn't want his company name used as a sponsor. Compare and contrats with Dave Whelan and the 'DW' stadium.

That's what I like about you Natters, you are always so tactful when putting your point across

I don't think it matters to be honest, fella.

If I had the money that Mr Moran had, I couldn't care less if I came across in interviews as Ray French-esque.

No point in beating around the bush Mr Belly

I appreciate he may want to stay out of the limelight but you are quite right that we wouldn't have been in this position without him so I for one will be singing his praises in the quins game with a little rendition of 'One Simon Moran, there's only one Simon Moran' and I hope those around join me as a thank you for him being one of those who do!

Moran = Smith =

As the old saying goes: actions speak louder than words. Regardless of how they are delivered.

You are talking crap, He is the owner, he can do whatever he likes, this guy has spent a fortune of his own money on this club, without him we wouldnt have had a winning team let alone sign Andrew Johns. He is a true fan not like most of the glory hunters at wembley, some of whom didnt even know the players names.

I for one am glad he was on the bus & pitch enjoying it, I'm sure that if you were invited you would have been there.

Thank you very much Simon for what you have done and continue to do - It is very much appreciated.

sounds like billy boston who gets on sky t.v more than noble at every home game
