I think wire would be a great move for Joe and Cas, if we could get say £400k for him i would be more than happy, much happier than maybe half of that in 12 months and nothing in 24.

Before you jump down my throat let me try and explain my reasons.

Ok we would be selling one of our prize assets but as we have seen with shenny the club cant afford to match wages and top players and their expectations of winning silverware. Unfortunatley we are and will be for the next few years a feeder club in which our best talent will keep getting cherry picked by the big money teams until we can compete in monatary terms which will go hand in hand with the team improving and us keeping our prized talent.

We cant blame these kids wanting to move on to improve. I'm not by any means saying Joe wants to go, but could you blame him really if he did?

£20 million?
Yes, I can use Wiki too icon_ass.gif
It went up by another 100k after he made the GB squad. Well thats what it says in the 1992 guinness book of records anyway icon_wink.gif

I hope your not including the U20s in that. That counts for nothing except squad depth. Robers and Feka have spent most of the season in that competition.

The Cas under 20s are full of under 18s and the under 18s team are lucky if they can grow bum fluff yet they are still able to compete against generally older opposition.

You haven't won anything this season yet so keep your cocky comments to yourself and go and play on your own board and your hands off Joe a026.gif

Titles? What titles have you "challenged" for in the past decade? Zilch. Trot on.

It's comments like this that make most opposition fans dislike Warrington.

What an utter embarrassment you are and a cocky twit to boot. That said though that sums up a whole chunk of your fans right now so it doesn't suprise me, hope you and your poxy little club never reach the GF and tbh i doubt you will within the next 5 years.
