Had our average crowds increased year on year with increased success to 16,17,18k+ you could fully understand ML and Co. investing in new world class players like Offiah. The problem was he didn't put an extra 1000 bums on seats (which would probably have covered his transfer fee plus wages) throughout his time with us. It was never going to be sustainable and ultimately all came crashing down where we nearly ending up us being classed as Horwich RLFC.

And I say this as someone who enjoyed every moment from 1982 to 1995, what a ride we had.

Double post.

And after yet more banging on about how it's not as good as it was back in the day, I still don't have a time machine for you. I don't know what you're looking for. Do you want the forum just to be a load of people reacting to every development with "it's not as good as in the 80s"? Do you want us to all club together to buy the club and build a smaller more crumbly stadium?

No one is saying that rugby in the 80s wasn't brilliant, but we can't go back there, so why let it spoil enjoyment of the game today? If you joined us in the present for 5 minutes, then you might realise we have a pretty good team that is well run and playing in a very good stadium (by RL standards).

Last post by grimmy probably sums up last four pages , we can't do anything about the past so let's remember the good bits and concentrate on the here and now

Agreed. That's what DVD's and YouTube are for.

Lmao. Ok whatever. I cba arguing with an armchair accountant

Which translates to "I can't find any creditors because you don't have any debts."

Now do us a favour.. f*** off.

But you can be ar*ed spending your days trolling on a rugby forum under various usernames.

Funny that.

Not arguing though is he? Simply asking for the debtors which you claim we have. If you can provide them at your earliest convenience

Are you really that thick. Look at the accounts on companies house. It has a negative balance sheet. Ergo, it’s insolvent! I get approached all the time to value a business and if someone approached me to value wigan, I would say not to bother as it doesn’t generate any profit and it’s insolvent. It’s worthless. You would pay £1 and that’s it. Unless leneghan is willing to write off the 6m or so the club owes it.

Jesus. Look at the accounts at companies house. Your club owes £9m which is due to be paid within 12 months.

I get you are all upset that your club is worthless but don’t take it out on me!

How much do st helens owe?

You are Ruddy Duck and I claim my £5

Unlike Wigan, St. Helens are solvent and would therefore be attractive to a potential buyer

You'd say the same about St Helens then would you who also lose money?

You'd best tell Mike Danson your concerns as he has already paid waaaaaaaaay over the odds for his 25%

St. Helens are solvent. Wigan aren’t. That’s a big difference

Do they not lose money then? Are the accounts on companies house a lie?

Dude. Just leave it. You have no idea what you are talking about. You can lose money and be solvent or you can lose money and be I solvent. Wigan are insolvent. For the millionth time, Wigan’s liabilities outweigh their assets whilst saints don’t.

Stop arguing over something you have absolutely no clue about you whopper

Speaking of Ruddy Duck. Does anyone know if they're ok?

So who or what are our liabilities? If Ian Lenegan walks away tomorrow, who will ne knocking on the door asking for their money?

Another 6/7 years at the current rate of losses and it won't.
And owning a 30 million pound stadium that NO-ONE would buy at that price and as an aside if you did sell would mean that you had nowhere to play isnt really that Impressive.

If your HK backers call in their 22million plus they're owed your in big trouble.
As it stands, IL owes IL, that'll do for me.

EXACTLY!!!!

Seems legit. I've got a tenner, so IL will snap my hand off for 10x your valuation, and I'll find it impossible to then sell the club on for a profit. Oh no, wait, IL wouldn't sell it to me for a tenner, and if he did then I'd be able to sell it on for far more the same day and instantly become a multi-millionaire in the process.

I sincerely hope these people approaching you to value businesses are just keeping you busy.

Didn’t you post this hours ago?

What changed your mind old boy? I thought you couldn’t be bothered



Why don’t you do everyone a favour and just use a few of your usernames and you can all talk to each other. It’ll be the most activity your mams back bedroom in Parr has seen.

Your last sentance just about sums up the level of your level of IQ
