TheBigDog Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Did a fantastic job for them - probably time for him to step down - old age can do funny things to some of us... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigfatjoe1 Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 So, without his dosh they are screwed. They will keep on falling faster than Madonna at the Brits. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And won't have all the repsonsibility of being Chairman. Preumably, at FA meetings (and FL more lately!) they just ignored him. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
leeslover Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Apparently his grandson's previous business experience includes a failed chip shop in Wigan. It's in safe hands. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ackey Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Apparently his grandson's previous business experience includes a failed chip shop in Wigan. It's in safe hands. 23 years old - big ask of him given they look almost certain to drop in to League 1 with a lot of over-paid, under-skilled players!

ghostofcecere Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 I wonder if his grandson has passed the fit and proper person test to become chairman? Which in Wigan's case is being an ex-pro that broke his leg in the FA Cup final. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

How can a chippy fail in Wigan? :censored:, he must be bad. He should've focused on pies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

rudemedic Posted March 3, 2015 Share Posted March 3, 2015 Not just in Wigan, next to the rugby league/football ground. Yeah. Thanks for the info, as in the very likely scenario that I will attend a meeting at Wigan's ground I have made a note not to visit the nearby chippy.
