I imagine IL the past few years has had to constantly look over his shoulder and plan what if’s with Latics seeming to be in trouble for the past few years. I imagine IL has been saving cash for all possibilities but we might be willing to push the boat out once more for a big named marquee signing now we know a seemingly sound owner of Latics is in charge and has investment in the rugby.

The coup-de-grace is the likes of Bullitt & Bickymon from CL/Latics Speyk who have spent years using cuckoo, lodgers, etc and vowed to stop going if anyone connected with the rugby bought their club now have a choice whether to eat humble pie and crawl back, or disappear for good. Maybe even "egg" will stop having to pander to the knuckledragging brigade on there.
