Quote: cherryandwhitedavid06 "Well if we were and we got beaten by Wakefield for his signature I'd be worried as we should have plenty of cap space. He'd have been ideal!'"
But just maybe Wigan did look at him and either said no, or more likely said he's worth a contract of £X and no more. Wakefield however, may have been willing to take the risk and pay him £Y.
I know previously IL has said "That's the max we will pay for certain players when they were available"
Wigan will only pay what THEY think the player is worth, not our (supporters) valuation.
Just check out Scott Taylors statement after signing for Wigan.
