Quote St pete="St pete"I fail to see what this old link has to do with this thread.
McManus says what every coach, owner and fans are saying.
He also says he has give his views to the RFL. It doesnt say he's asked for rules to be changed, it doesn't say he's asked for help. He simply says he's put his view on the matter forward.
Obviously Wigan must have cried that little harder as the RFL have changed the rules for Wigan to keep Sam tomkins.'"
You can't see the relevance?
You spout some sanctimonious, inaccurate drivel; attempting to claim that is only Wigan who have ever initiated a discussion to make amendments to the Salary Cap, in what I suppose, was a misguided attempt to claim some moral high ground on behalf of the club you support.
Wigan have done what McManus and others have done in the past (see Hull and James Rule- who precipitated the second tier liability dispensation in the case of injury amendment) - because guess what... that's the procedure by which amendments to the Salary Cap are made; this being just the latest in several.
They are proposed, discussed, agreed and then implemented. As your Chairman explained, a club may feel that 'something is a real problem and it has to be resolved'. They may then choose to speak officially to the governing body, put forward a proposal for consideration by the other Clubs to consider, there's a meeting, a vote, an amendment is made.
Like Wigan have done in the last few weeks, and like others - including Saints, have done in the past.
