What a poor thread. comments at times on this are poor , Get a grip

Well, any amendment of this nature wouldn't happen overnight, and would never be implemented midway through a salary cap year bearing in mind the way the live cap works.

You seem to think Wigan bobbed round to Red Hall a couple of weeks ago, gave Nigel Wood a sack of biscuits and sat in his office blubbing until he gave in, filled the empty biscuit sack with £100K and personally delivered it to the Tomkins house dressed as Santa Claus.
(By the way, I know that's not precisely what you think happened....but what you do seem to think is almost as silly).



Well obviously, the RFL are in Wigan's pockets, along with enough of the other clubs to get an amendment voted through. (It's not just a bilateral process between Wigan and the RFL you know).

I don't suppose we'll ever know, but I bet Saints voted in favour. Afterall, Eamonn (much as you dislike the idea) had already done some of the groundwork.

I'm sure you'll disagree. I won't be carrying the discussion on though. I've got 4 Nations final tickets to buy and a trip to Wrexham to occupy me.

Mate, if only you know what I know.

I told people via pm nearly three weeks ago before anyone had even mentioned any of this and I know exactly how it all came about.

The is few on your board that will confirm I knew weeks ago about this and I know what went on and how it came about.

Well, feel free to PM me too. I'm not in the businesse of breaking confidences.

Neither am I in the business of blindly defending Wigan.

All I did was to point out (by providing evidence in the form of a link to the article containing direct quotes) that your original assertion that when faced with losing players to the NRL and Union, Saints meekly accepted it without a murmer, was inaccurate.

It was in no way a comparison with recent events - there isn't enough evidence in the public domain to have that argument effectively - and would be completely irrelevant to the point I was making anyway.

Facts, evidence and most St Helens fans don't really sit together too well. Blissful ignorance and believing Pimblets make good pies is about the norm.

true dat! Pimblets don't make good pies. They make fooking great pies!

Better than that e you get in Wigan. Just cause they had to eat humble pie doesn't mean they make good pies.

Be like saying just because Wigan is full of dogs (women) they have an advantage at krufts.
