Why are you even asking? I have merely expressed the opinion I don't like the club being owned by one man whether that was DW or IL for the obvious reason it's never a good thing to put all your eggs in one basket and if we have a new additional investor/owner this is good news. What is the problem with this?

Well................................................... It seems that almost since day one of his tenure, you have taken any and every opportunity to have a little snide dig at IL.. To even compare his stewardship with that of DW is an insult. While of course it's good to have extra investment, you have always found ways to look at IL in a negative light... You should have a chat with the Hardaker obsessive, compare notes.

I’d be interested to see how much he’s taken. It’s obvious he’s not overtaken IL as majority share holder but you’d have thought he’d have a substantial share in the club.

More than 25%, less than 50%.

Sizeable chunk then. Very interesting indeed

Maybe Mr Lenagan taking us on the road previously has drummed up the interest from Mike Danson. Once again IFL proving he does things correctly and in the best interests of our club. Your all running out of things to throw at him now?

He had deep pockets allegedly but not anymore.

He only signs championship players but not anymore.

Lets appreciate what we have, maybe this is the start of the club being taken over slowly and surely and this way we will see the new investors hand before we go all in?

The Skolars pre season games may have played a big part IMO. After attending one for the first time this year, I’d imagine there would be a few people there wealthy enough to buy a stake in a rugby league team. I didn’t see many eyes water at the £7 bottles of larger in the bar, whereas I nearly fainted

I must say one of the things that i liked when i read about Mike Danson is that he was born in Wigan and isn't one of these outsider's who just buy into clubs who aren't actually from the area,a case in point being these investors who buy football clubs who aren't even from this country.I also read somewhere that he owns one of Michael Jackson's old properties i think it's in New York,hopefully we will be an even more attractive prospect to potential future players now we have 2 very rich benefactors

He can be like Roman Abromovich but instead of offering a week on his yacht, he can offer players a week in his MJ mansion in New York. It’ll still be a tough sell to get players to choose that over Eamon McManus and his villa in Parr though.
