Cautious indeed but this approach is slightly contradicted by inviting Roberts to the fans forum.

However the important point is that he is here at last, hopefully an official announcement will only be days away.

Firms appreciate that the biggest value in sponsorship is the impact of announcng they are investing in the club, if this is tainted somewhat then it ill put them off.

Hence why the club made us removed this weeks images, as the deal was only signed sealed and delivered last night.
Also it does appear that the deal makes them the 'main sponsor'. Whether this was to reassure fans or they actually are, who knows.


does that mean we get freedom of speech back??

imo IL and MH would like to censor this forum .

might i suggest if they want control over whats posted on forums that the club set up a forum run by the club.

leeds had one, bradford had one, hull had one etc...they all got closed down because the mods couldnt cope.

i reckon the mods on here do a fair and decent job, its just a pity that the club seem to want to influence how the mods run this forum.

if IL doesnt like what he reads on here, then my message to IL is to stop reading it.

Don't be so ridiculous. All they didn't want was an image of a leaked sponsor on a shirt that could have affected the deal - with hindsight most people can see that is reasonble.

It was up to the Mods to decide if they wanted to remove that particular item. Nothing is censored.

are you trying to tell me the mods wernt influenced by the club??

in hindsight i can see why they chose to do it, but why should a public forum be influenced by outside interference?

Because my friend, the mods and the people that got in touch share a common interest and that's simply wanting the best for Wigan Rugby League.

I have in the past asked for comments made about myself to be removed because of their nature - I am an outside influence. It is up to the mods to judge and remove if necessary. That's not censorship.

and thats what i want.......along with the freedom of speech my dad and his generation fought hitler for.

in this case, whilst i dont agree with it all, im sure the mods have a good reason for going along with it.

i just hope club interference doesnt become a habit.......especially with IL referring to this forum as "the website" :(
