| Quote ="Under the sticks"Back on thread...........none of us know quite what will be announced on Friday.
I am as guilty as many others for moaning and groaning about the club`s situation, but whatever our plight David Hughes deserves to be given our full support and we should show our appreciation on Friday. The man has given so much to keep this club afloat over the years, can we not for once drop the marketing debate from a thread and focus on the huge positive which is David Hughes..........you can market all you like but no DH = no club.'"
Fair 'nough. Back on thread I can only agree with you and as it's only 2 days away I won't waste time speculating. |

Pete Winkelman is looking for year round use of Stadium MK & as such has bought the club & is moving it to Milton Keynes where it will be renamed as MK Quins. As a sop to the london based fans a new club will be started up playing in Championship1.
I really,really hope I'm wrong though as i've had some enjoyable trips to the Stoop

| Quote ="Paddock Punter"I can't buy into this - people drifting away because of the mis management of the club. Liverpool FC are being mis managed big time but they still get full houses, anti glazer faction at Man U set up another club but Man U still get full houses. Wigan under Mo for the last years would seem to be mismanaged but attracted big crowds.
How has the club been mismanaged? quote
It's silly to compare the club to Liverpool or Manure. If they lose a bunch of fans, for whatever reason, there are thousands of others waiting for the chance to buy tickets in their place.
Quins mismanagement has been constant and enduring. It's the only thing this club actually does well. Every week there are examples on this very board, some petty and some ridiculous, but some of them have been downright abysmal from the club. Fans moan but usually forget about it, until eventually it builds to the point where they realise that the club is going nowhere and they're simply wasting their time. That's when they decide to watch Leeds v Huddersfield on sky instead of going to the Stoop. From there it's a short journey to not bothering with the season ticket and just picking and choosing games. Then they realise they haven't been at all that season. Then they're lost to the club.

| Think PP has it right. Reckon it will just be a case of we've got another season.
Problem is, it's so late in the day to be able to build a squad for next year, I worry that the team will be as weak as this year and we'll end up in the same boat.
Still, at least it sounds like the Mighty Quins will be around for everyone to moan about!  |

Can I just say I really hope things work out for you. I'm not sure if the tie up with Quins was the best move for you but you will have a much better insight into that than I.
The trip to your club is always one of most Wigan fans highlights of the year, in fact second only to Catalan. Again good luck and I hope it is a positive announcement.

Thanks Rogues.
The Quins move WAS the best move for us and in fact, the only option for us. IMO anyway.
People look back on Griffin Park through rose-tinted specs.

Anyone else have the same reaction as Brian Carney to Eddie Hemmings suggestion of every SL owning a chunk of Harlequins (most teams have managed to own Quins at least once this season already)

No doubt some of our Northern Cousins will misread this and insist that the RFL have given us another gerzillion pound handout. |

Examples please of the weekly mismanagement. If they are simply factors of underfunding of back room staff and systems then how are they mismanagement (other than not having enough money).

Anyway, I thought it was Crusaders who have bought the 65%, we are now known as London Fulquinbroncrusaders. Dean Richards is there as assistant coach, Mac got up North and found it closed for the Winter so he's now staying another year but on his way back has a clandestine meeting at t'services to collect this weeks brown envelope from the RFL.....................
