Quote: Cruncher "That was my understanding, but of course it was only a rumour.

The aims in 1998 would have been somewhat murkier.'"


Indeed. Id really hope it wasnt true, given some of my boyhood heroes were involved. Still, who knows, and we are entering potentially dangerous areas.

To be fair Cas in those days were a very strong team indeed, particularly in the forwards. I've heard that rumour but never been sure whether it was just an attempt to cover for a defeat by a good side, albeit a smaller club.

Cas gave us a series of hard games that season, which suggests that you're on the button with that. It's also a fact that Wigan underperformed for much of it due to John Dorahy's poor and unpopular leadership, regardless of any conspiracies.

Anyone fancy PMing me a version of the 1998 rumours?

I've heard the 'alleged' Cas/Regal Trophy story, but not this one...
