Think one of his main gripes is that they charged Wigan X ammount to police a game against Leeds and then charged think it was Preston less even though the Preston v Leeds crowd was bigger than the Wigan v Leeds crowd.
I'll look up the figures when I get up later but gives you a rough guide to what Whelan is taking them to court for.
