ok - we have debts we can cope with and we have a new stadium and business plan that will see us good in the near future - your team on the other hand sold your stadium paid your debts then realised you didnt have enough money to buy a new one.....then went begging to the local football team owner. You were spending so much on salaries you had to get permission to not comply to the cap which was fine other than the fact you wernt put on a transfer freeze (which was disgusting but typical).

[iHere's some facts for your sig

Saints - owners of a wonderful new stadium my council tax helped develop

- For Knowsley Road you get a nice wedge of cash and a new home

- For Central Park you get a great new supermarket and a timeshare in a football stadium[/i

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg



Quote: Rogues Gallery "That's a bit rich from a team that's just lost £1.3 million in one season! Ask at the shareholders meeting how you are going to deal with the image rights and EBT trust payments from HMRC that are coming your way.'"

Since the RFL is not disclosing which clubs are involved in image rights payments or EBT trust payments, you haven't got a clue whether Saints have any involvement in either. You know nothing.

Look. We booted you out of the comp. Get over it.

SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled. For 27 - 0 you get a trophy For 75 - 0 you get sod all. Wigan had eight in a row Saints have five in a row:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3076.jpg

Just because the RFL is not releasing the information does not mean that some people don't know who is involved. Just as I explained to you the other night the man of steel result was known to some people way before it was announced.

Your own chairman admitted on Radio Manchester last year that Saints were using those payments.
I don't know when the Saints shareholders meeting is but someone should ask the question regarding Saints liability to the tax man. I'm sure it will be asked at Wigan next Tuesday, that is of course assuming that the shareholders at Saints are not all "yes men".

I personally have been told the names of six clubs who have used these types of payments, some clubs have already made provisional statements in their accounts to cover them. It was one of the main problems at Wakefield for example.
Why do you think the Leeds South Stand rebuild has been cancelled?

HTH

There are a few more reasoned posters on here who will know what I'm on about!

Good, you are one of the posters who know what I'm on about though. icon_wink.gif

When is the shareholders meeting?
Wigans is next Tuesday.
Just so that I don't get accused of derailing the thread (although it is about Wigan) ther'e a good discussion about the issues on here.

[quote='Fishsta"']I've always thought of McGuire as a good player, and I wouldn't normally wish injury on any player, but there was a certain hint of poetic justice to that. [/quote] Another classic: [quote='Fishsta']You forgot to take off the "Saints Reduction Factor" when calculating the ban. Standard suspension / Saints Reduction Factor = Actual ban for Saints player. Therefore (2 / 3) = 0.666 0.666 < 1 therefore actual ban equals "less than 1 match". Therefore ZERO.[/quote] Give the girl her dummy back.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18821.jpg

Quote: No1 Saint "And that team nearly went bust and needed to have dispensation to spend miles more than everyone else (aka an advantage) after the cap was introduced just to cover the hugh wages it was paying certain players'"


Every time Warrington make a signing we have Wiganers crying about how come we can sign all these players, we must be over the cap etc etc, they must be living in fear of our mighty line up!
