True Rodley,
Hence why although Wigan are a small club I can totally understand why he'd prefer Wigan over both Sheff Utd or MK Dons.
However if you have 2 teams (us and Scunthorpe) in the same division you decide which team is more likely to get promoted and is more likes to stay there once promoted.
Salary levels (bonuses) are a big attraction but also things like location, training facilities, stadium, reputation, ambition, manager have an effect too. If he joins Scunny then good luck to them, their Chairman must have done a fantastic job at selling the club.
Scunny finished a LOT stronger than us last season and still have the manager in place who was responsible for that finish. They also seem to be willing to chuck a bit of cash at it. Whereas we are undergoing a rebuild under yet another manager who probably won’t last 12 months (if our track record is anything to go by). I wouldn’t say they are any less likely than us to get promoted.
