I'm sure paddypower would have sponsored us and advertised us to a larger market by marketing the odds of our game either on TV or to a wide audience on the Internet.'"
I'm not a Wigan fan but I am interested in the business side of RL.
The amount of negativity on this thread is astounding, and tbh if I had my own company I would steer well clear of RL clubs as their fans are never happy with anything.
On your point, this is why it's not worth discussing with many RL fans as they deal in fantasy. Why are you sure Paddypower would sponsor Wigan?
You have basically just picked a company out of thin air and said they would sponsor Wigan.
On the comparisons with my club Warrington, it is worth noting that last year we had a local company sponsoring us - there is absolutely a place for local sponsors and national sponsors.
