The new manager on the radio said the LSV have been brilliant with them and they were now going to be playing at the staduim. So I presume they are being supported by Wigan Council.

That will mean an increase in poll tax.Or perhaps they`ll just charge LRLFC more.

Sponsorship at non-league level is generally regarded as just a tax dodge from directors/chairmen anyroad, as far as I'm aware.
