Not an attack at all, just an observation.
Maurice (from Leigh) has told you exactly how it is, but there is quite a bit more that MAY be revealed in time.

It was 12 years actually, surely you remember the last one of those  |

He didn't tell it exactly how it is, he just gave his personal view on the situation. |

Ahhh!! That old chestnut...!!
Would that be the same days where Leeds spent just as much money chasing Wigan but won nowt?
It's a good job we weren't allowed to enter the Yorkshire Cup or else we'd have won that!  |

Didn't Leeds offer us an outrageous 1m for Ellery Hanley?
Were Leeds the first full time side?
Genuine questions

Looks like, yet again, we are being accused of breaking the "spirit of professionalism"... We broke no rules, and anybody could have done the same. Leeds tried, and failed.. End of, history, move on.

I love it when Leeds fans mention us buying trophies in the 80's/90's. We spent money and dominated for a decade, Leeds spent more and won nowt!
It's a bit like Man U fans having a go at City these past few years for buying success whilst they ignore the fact they're spending £250m every two years trying to do just the same.

Any proof of us spending more?
We clearly wasted it didnt we, considering we had one or two stars and your team was made up of internationals 
If you were spending less than us then what explains your decline in the 2000s to the point you looked like being relegated at one point until you signed a load of aussies? |

What?
You obviously paid them more, why would all those internationals stay at Wigan if they could be apparently paid more elsewhere?

Don't know and Yes, Leeds were the first team to go completely professional. |

I think Moon being missing for them is a huge loss. In my opinion he's the best centre in SL, certainly attacking. Him and Hall can be lethal usually with McGuire setting up everything.
Any team is bound to struggle with such key players missing. Luckily our backline is doing OK for injuries (other than Sam obviously)

Doubt you were old enough to be watching Leeds back then so you probably don't remember anyway. Trust me Leeds spent fortunes but they couldn't knock Wigan off their perch because we produced far better players to play alongside our signings.
As for us signing a load of Aussies in the 2000's, we must have taught you guys a thing or two because as the old guard retires it seems as though they're replaced with lads from down under. What you running with this year? 6 or 7? Far too many for a club the size of Leeds. Some could call it trying to buy success
