I am not shooting the messenger as like you say its what you have heard.

BUT ITS UTTER PONY, Whelan has no interest in RL he proved that at Wigan over the years he was there. He has only one interest and that is the footy club.

HE SHOWED HIS TRUE COLOURS WHEN HE MADE WIGAN PLAY (I THINK IT WAS A SEMI FINAL PLAY OFF) AT WIDNES BECAUSE IT WOULD MARK THE PITCH FOR THE FOOTY TEAM. AS A RUGBY FAN THAT WAS THE FINAL NAIL IN THE COFFIN AS FAR AS I WAS CONCERNED IN RELATION TO HIM. IT ALSO SHOWS WHAT POWER WIGAN HAVE AT THE DW STADIUM...DIDLY SQUAT.

NO WAY JOSE

I don't think we can be choosy.

It's a simple rule:

Money = Good
No money = bad

I'd be surprised by interest from any major player in the absence of planning permission for NM, but get that and you beggars may well be choosers for once.

This has been mentioned before, however, any investor would be able to buy the club cheeper now than after planning permission has been granted so somebody may be willing to take a risk.

heard the same - stranger things have happend!!!

he has nt sold JJB thats why its called DW sports now - Dave Whealan

No he has given it away. He signed it over to the football club, and signed a long lease for the rugby club. He said its because he is getting a bit old for it all. So I would find it difficult to believe he is planning to come back into the sport.
