Bankruptcy and plans to play at Bolton were the result last time around.

Another idiot who quotes heresay as opposed to fact.


At least do your research before posting tripe.

What a pathetic statement, this isn't 2 or 3 years ago.

Put it this way, the conditions made the game not as free flowing as it should have been, but it didn't stop the drama.

As for refereeing decisions going towards us, talk about clutching at straws, get a grip.

Even 8 mins of injury time couldn't help you.

Ok simple question.


Without the Communist Cap (Salary Cap no doubt to you), do you honestly think that you could compete with Wigan?

£20? We can pass the money to our respective mods if you like?

With a multi millonaire in Rob Crossland, yes, I think we would.

You are seriously clutching at straws.

I will tell you what, if we could scrap the CC now I would gladly give you £20 to donate to the charity of your choice.

Hell I would double it in the hope of saving the sport that I love.

Great. Let's lobby the RFL to do it then.

You are a mid-table side too, whatever your delusions tell you. Get your noses out of the history books.

What planet are you on?

The most successful club would be the richest benefactor and the harsh reality that the game is too small to survive if that was the case - do you not understand?

And for what it's worth, our board would be prepared to put up more cash than Lenegan and co. - by a long way...

You aren't a follower of Rugby League in the slightest, all you see is your club and nothing else. But, you'd be chuffed to see your team trying to buy the league again, and kill the sport?

Pathetic.

Only because of the CC.

Wigan RL will NEVER be a mid table side if everything was left to "natural selection".


Or at least not for long

Now you are just being an idiot - the type who gives your club a bad name.

Without going into details of what I know, Lenegan would not be prepared to dip in his pockets like Crossland would so thank your lucky stars that there is a salary cap in place - otherwise you'd be even further behind us than you already are...

Wigan ARE RL.


And if it wasn't for the CC we would still be in our rightful (and natural) position.


You may not like that line of argument, but you know it to be true.

Oh, you mean, let us spend our money. If that's how you want to win the league, good luck to you. Don't think that is the model for the eight seven teams above you. Maybe there's a lesson to be learned.

Oh my good god I knew where you sat on this subject just be reading you posts in this thread.
So just because wigan can't do what the hell they want they are the wronged party boo hoo.
If you dont like it sunshine go and watch Football where money is the route of all its evil's you will fit right in there.
I on the other hand will watch a sport where a team who had once developed a fan base on getting lucky when they started waving the chequebook about and put RL years behind can no longer do what ever it please's even if the likes of you throw a paddy fit.

What is your obsession with the challenge cup?

This thread will be the best ever in another hour

What the hell do you mean by this? Surely your not saying your 'bought success' was the catalyst in your decline?

Thank god they arnt.

Dunno why were giving him the satisfaction, you've got to be embarrased by what he's saying!

What a stupid thing to say in a time when people are being made redundant left, right and centre.

We can moan about the cap all day long but it is here and is here to stay. Deal with it.

Just because there is a salary cap it does not mean we cannot be a top side again. We have the money to buy players but instead lets focus on the young lads we do have and develop them. Michael McIlorum, Sean Ainscough, Sam Tomkins, Joel Tomkins, Paul Prescott, Eamon O'carroll, Darrell Goulding, Lee Mossop etc

Our two best performers for the last few weeks have been home grown - Sean O'loughlin and Gareth Hock. Your home grown players are vital to a successful side and considering Wigan have some of the best local talents in rugby league in the UK we should look to develop them into world class players to benefit the side and to put us back where we belong.

It pains me when I saw Shaun Briscoe keep Hull KR in the game by rushing over to push the ball into touch, stopping a certain try and then to see on our end Cameron Phelps beaten twice.

Totally. Its farcical.

Does BrettKenny get out out much or does he spend all his time fondling himself whilst looking at a pic of Martin Offiah?
