So topping the league and winning the gf isn't recovering ? Being only a few seconds off another gf after an awful year that included sacking a club legend isn't a recovery ? You need to give your a head a wobble mate.

It was a positive blip on our so called 10 year transition period, we are looking more promising now on the field and off it financially. Wigan on the other hand need a massive clear out of players on the field and financially are nose diving after a 600k loss. To arrange a super league 10 000 miles away for financial benefit is a kick in the spuds for most wigan fans I speak to.

Saints lost over £700K and have lost over £6.5 million since moving, hardly a blip

Does the Football League and Oxford United owner (Lenigan) actually tell you?

Ian Lenagan has no financial association with Oxford United, he had to relinquish his shares when he was voted chair of the Football League, just as had to sell his London ones when he bought Wigan.

They have a reducing tangible asset of around £3 million (2015) which I assume is the Old Orrell Rugby Club, I think we are almost 10 x that figure.

Only really an asset if you want to sell it. Who would buy it?
Where would you play then?

Look how much Saints owe Coleman!!
