I can't see any other threads - just a few updates from the fan's forum going on at the mo...(shamelessly nicked from Bilko, adnorris88 and JamesRoughley Tweets)...and as adnorris88 said, this is only their spin on what IL says...

- Fan's forum finished!

- IL happy with disciplinary this year; much improved.



- Someone complained the tannoy system is too quiet at the DW.



- Lenegan states it is financially beneficial for us if Latics stay up in terms of up keep of DW Stadium



- Lenegan prefers to makes his complaints in private unlike the Hetheringtons at Hull and Leeds and doesn't like all the comments re tackling. He told the RFL they looked amateur by not dealing with Nathan Brown's outburst earlier, though he is happy with their reasoning.

- The club we were setting up a link with in Aus was Melbourne. This went tits up due to Melbourne's SC troubles.



- Wigan made a £108,000 profit last year. Expecting a profit between £75,000 and £200,000 this year.



- sold 68% more shirts this year than last and will be back to old school cherry & white next year.


(there will be an "experimental" shirt every 3 years. Marketing strategy apparently)

- 6 of 13 Super League coaches applied for Wigan job.



- Gareth Hock has signed a 5 year contract.



- No centres in the market, thinks Joel will learn to be a great centre, youngsters to be given chances.



- George Carmont and Paul Deacon will retire at the end of season with Andy Coley assessing whether he will do so or not.



- Shaun Wane not 100% confirmed as coach but Lenegan gave a massive hint that he will be.

Great stuff.

apart from carmont and deacon

6 current coaches? Wonder who they were

Now THAT is interesting.

I wonder who the current coaches are who applied.. Id imagine maybe they include the better coaches aswel who would want to try to the next level.

John Kear?

Justin Morgan was one of them.

I'll keep updating the first post as updates come through...just added another!

potter and agar both applied.

Agar applied?

Wouldn't mind Trent Robinson or Nathan Brown!

I see they spoke about next seasons kit... did they say anything about who will be the kit supplier next season as I believe koogas deal runs out at end of 2011??

About time!

Gutted about Carmont more than anything else - Positive sounds about profit though! Think we all need to get behind this and do everything we can to try and get Carmont in for another year! viewtopic.php?f=28&t=493967

Has anyone asked a question about potential player signings for next year?

Morgan, Agar, Potter, (Someone on rumours reckons) McDermott, who are the other two gonna be?

Matterson?
Robinson?
Brown?

Surely not Simmons, Kear or Smith. Harris and Powell too inexperienced? McRae past it?

Please be an ISC or Canterbury kit. Cherry and White hoops.

There is no way the pink shirt outsold last year's kit. I was lucky to get one last season without a sponsor's logo, and it does look fantastic. Proper hoops and proper colours.And just the right amount of piping...........

Funny how after all the slagging the kits this season got we're up on sale

They must factor in that this season we're champs, must have an effort on sales. Also younger fans seem to like it.

Its definately ISC. My cousin works for them & keeps bragging how he has seen next seasons Wigan shirt!

I'd guess the figures will include the away shirt too. I agree though, last years (home and away) were better, shows how much of a bonus being champions can be I guess.

And there was us being told Hock was off to 'Ull

Great news. Love there current kit range. Downunder leisure stock some ISC Aussie shirts, they look great in the flesh.

Did IL actually name these two? Crikey.

just new on twitter - whats the twitter adresses to follow ?
