Are you sure about that? What if they were the only ones invited to the press conference? What if they didn't have a long enough table and enough chairs to fit supposedly 11 people?

A bit like this?

Robert Elstone denies he is Ian Lenaghan's puppet. How cringeworthy.

Lenagan's record as a Rugby League businessman is pretty abysmal by any standards - the financial performance of Wigan is embarrassing not just in the scale of the losses but moreover in the direction of travel - it's getting worse and worse every year.

I don't think Hetherington needs to take any lessons on buying and selling in the transfer market from anyone. This is the man who sold Iestyn Harris to Wales for £1m (plus a corporate box in Cardiff) then sold him again to Bradford for £550k.
