The 80,000 is just for Wigan 'central'. Include Hindley, Standish, Ashton-in-Makerfield and the like and it's nearer 200,000 in the end.

I'm sure I watched an interview with him a few years ago were he said that he wasn't putting anymore money in but I could be wrong

There was considerable investment in the new Stadium.

I suspect that Wigan are financially self-sustaining and will remain so as long as they stay in the Premier League.

If they go down and are unable to bounce back quickly then they could be in financial problems once the parachute payments cease.

Bigger clubs than Wigan have ended up dropping two divisions in quick succession: Man. City, Aston Villa, Nottm. Forest, Sheff. Wednesday, Sheff. United, Wolves, and maybe Blackburn Rovers?

They have come a long way in the last 30 years from their Northern Premier League days.
