Do we envisage a buy out by Danson?

I don't know anything about the man. Is he a big enough fan to take over and run the club?

I think so, and he certainly has the money.

what people need to factor in is that IL is 76. He is still actively a director / owner of 4 businesses inc WiganRL
I was told at weekend that he has recently sold a business for a significant sum of money, whether that and interest in charlton are linked or not, i have no idea as the person i was talking to didnt mention Charlton

Does IL pass on the reigns of Wigan to his sons or sell a majority share to Mike Danson? What i do know, is that he wont make anywhere near as much from selling Wigan has he has from his other business interests previously

Matt Shaw reporting that Leigh are in for JWH. Regardless, hope Wigan stay well clear - expensive, at the end of his career and would no doubt miss a heap of games through suspension.

He is still some player the big issue is he’ll miss some games. Be a gamble for Leigh if they get him and Napa

He’s in a different league to Napa.

I was meaning it as who would be spending the most time on the side line

I'd be happy if he got suspended for belting the Saints pack on GF. With a bit of hype and marketing JWH Vs Walmsley could add some extra bums on seats.
