Doesn’t Danson own 49%?

Officially he still owns 25% when you google Mike Danson and us.
Unless you've heard different.

I think it would be fantastic news for the town if Danson gets Latics and is then on a course to owning both clubs at some point. People can like it or not but both clubs need each other and the constant issues at Latics don’t help the rugby club. We need somebody with both clubs interests at heart to take things forward.

Yes, surely only the most knuckle-headed of Latics fans would object.

Oh...

Just been down to get a ticket for the Wire game, office open, lady at the desk said they were just turning up day by day.
Hope for their sakes this gets sorted, must be an awful position to be in

There will be some and they can go and take a running jump. I’d love to think a takeover by Danson could clear out some empty headed dead wood from the Latics fan base and start a new era.

A pipe dream maybe but it shouldn’t be.

To be fair there'll be a few on our side as well, "Why's he spending all this money on them, should be signing Nathan Cleary...."
The fact we're in a salary capped sport will blissfully pass them by, one of the Warriors fb groups I'm on has been mortifyingly awful these past few weeks

Re: Latics in administration - Lenagan leading bid : Mon Jun 12, 2023 1:50 pm  

To be fair, we could sign Nathan Cleary using the marquee rule.

Clock's ticking, on Latics Speak it's saying HMRC have put a winding up order in scheduled for end of July

Edit, winding up petition, not clued up on this stuff but it's apparently the stage before a winding up order
