Andy,
Its sensationalism to blame covid for Wigan's problems.
Here's the truth.

when asked by BBC Radio Manchester how big an impact the coronavirus pandemic has had on the situation, Stanley said: "I don't think it's played a massive part in terms of the way the club's been run, because the club's been run very well.

"The funding that was due to come in from the owners didn't come in. I've had no contact with the owners and I don't know why the funding didn't come in.

Your probably right not just in football but across businesses some will use Covid as an excuse but don't let it blindside you to the problems in every business it has and is creating shame because people are desperate for some normality, pubs for example not one person I have talked to sorry apart from one is planning to pay them a visit any time soon.

yes, those who had problems right back in march. thought wigan had financial problems anyway before anyone heard of corona virus. could it be possible that they are looking for the league to be kind to them in points deductions if they blame the virus and not previous situations.

Maybe there will be a spike ....... maybe they wont.
know time is dragging for a lot of us but look what has happened in the last 10 weeks to now. so much could change for the better and we need to be more positive about things. never thought i,d be in the glass half full section of the community.

Very good point and if in the next very crucial couple of months if for instance 10 or 12 clubs drop into administration will they receive a 12 points deduction some very hard and crucial decision,s could have to be made and with EFL,s handling of the Bury and Bolton fiasco it could be a bumby ride.

They've played well since the restart mate.
I think they believe they can get 13 points more than the relegation total and survive.

They cannot randomly change the rules.
Everyone dropping into Administration will receive their punishment.

Re: Coronovirus

If that was the case why didn't Bury or Bolton raise legal proceedings alleging just that ?

Re: Coronovirus

A very good Client of ours was desperate to help Bury and put a package forward to save them - subject to due diligence.
What was uncovered during that due diligence was jaw dropping.
He walked away.
All this "we didn't know what not one, but two owners were up to" isn't exactly a strong case is it ?
Unless serious sanctions are applied in each and every case there will be carnage.
People forget what happened at Leicester City.
Wiped their debts when relegated with no punishment by going into administration and bounced straight back into the Premier League the following season spending well and retaining Premiership players on Premiership terms..
Fast forward 13 years - Champions.

Well I presume in Bolton,s case they got what they wanted in Bury,s case what Dale is up to anybody,s guess but he is a very shrewd operator.
