Riddler statement.

Riddler statement.

Statement wasn't really necessary - the 4th article about Mike Pollitt on the offish site in 2 weeks made it clear there was no news now, and none coming down the pipe.

The balance sheet fanboys will go wild though.

Simply no need to be so patronising.

Good statement.
 
Really pleased that we have received the communication we craved, if this can carry on it will certainly lessen any divide appearing between supporters and the club which can only be a good thing surely.
 
Fans have asked the club to speak more. They've done that. They've confirmed we won't be showing any ambition for promotion and that has irked many. They are though, at least, being upfront about it (perhaps cynically in a season where season ticket sales are largely irrelevant).

So we are left with a choice really. As a supporter I would watch PNE whatever the situation (and just continue to whinge!) But as a consumer you have a choice. The owner's advisor has told you we will not be spending money on trying to push on so you can choose not to attend or put any money into the club.
 
er... you started it, sunshine. If you don’t want a little bite back then don’t be so derogatory about a sizable chunk of reasonable supporters.

Watch out he will put you on ignore yet. I called him patronising and he started crying like a little bitch.
 
Yeah not overly keen on the final paragraph
This?
Thank you for your continued support. ?

Like the cheek of it, assuming they had continued support of some. 🤔🤔😂

Really honest and revealing statement
Proud to be a PNE supporter tonight

Spot on, I am proud to support PNE, OK training Ground was bad and the end of Season, but with each new season we start a fresh. UTW

"Bite back". Jesus Christ.

Bore off.
 
Having a few close wigan supporter pals I'm grateful to trevor hemmings for how he runs our club and long may it continue
In late 70s I went to watch Wigin on a freezing Boxing Day when our game was postponed....they were in the Northern Premier league......since then they’ve reached the Prem and won the FA Cup so don’t pitch their suffering to ours.
 
“balance sheet fanboys”

come on, what did you think would happen this summer? Spending jamboree?
It's a statement for people who get excited about a nice balance sheet.

And (after the follow-up tweet) a statement for people who get excited about the promise of more statements.

It's such an exciting statement, that you've made 3 posts on this thread discussing me and my light-hearted response to the statement, rather than extolling the exhilarating content of the statement itself.
 
1) What happened to '...we will come out of every trasfer window with a stronger squad than we went into it'?
2) No mention of ambitions of promotion to the Premier League
3) Nothing said about the Walker Lane Training Ground
4) No comment on releasing promosing youth players (including to a rival club)

Bit of a nothing statement really. Essentially feels like a parent telling their child to stop acting spoilt.
 
Some seriously unreal twats showing up on here.

Incomings. Absolutely fuck all.

Outgoings. Fucking loads.

Under previous owners we would have had the administrators in by now, but people are complaining about signings etc etc.

Get fucking real you assholes.....

Over the next few months it’s likely many clubs will hit a financial wall, it may even be difficult to finish the season if it goes really bad if so many clubs go to the wall.

Many major businesses are on survival strategy for the next 2/3 years, not about development.

Serious talks are on between with Sky and other broadcasters and football as they struggle to make the sums add up as advertising income is being drastically reduced.

Get real you lot.

Forget what Riddler said, its statements like this that will bring the fans together...

Jeez.
