Steve Wigan
Player Valuation: £35m
Perhaps too strong a word, `chancer` may be better suited, of course only my opinion.
Interesting watch re Wigan have to wait and see must be exciting times for both clubs new money etc
The Oldham guy has already admitted he is not loaded and has only promised 'commitment'.. the Wigan takeover is interesting mainly because Whelan, who was still the power at Wigan despite having 'retired' is a cagey old fox and knows how to squeeze the maximum out of any situation. They are expecting to be in the Championshop next year, and up to now have been well run. I had a couple of Aussie visitors over last year and they wanted pictures taken outside the JW(they were Rugby League fans). Girl on reception asked if we'd like a look round, and treated us to three hours full tour including board room physio room changing rooms tunnel on to pitch,trophys, They don't do tours normally,and she wouldn't take a penny from us.Brilliant PR.
