The Wigan chairman...says the cash raised from the transfer - "a nice cheque for us" - will be fed straight back into the club through the backroom staff, facilities, education and sports science.

Not good enough if true.
The whole article is pretty depressing and IL's usual platitudes such as it being flattering are worn out. |

| Quote jonh="jonh"The problem is with transfer fees who would you sign?
Realistically?
Only name that stands out to me would be Ben Crookes and or Lineham, to fill the centre/wing void, and I think to call that realistic is a stretch.
We then look to the NRL to improve is where the clubs are swimming with cash and even if they accepted a transfer fee the players wages are vastly inflated so you get less bang for your buck.
Blake Ferguson would be a great signing but would he get a visa? No transfer fee needed, but he would be a stop gap whilst the heat died down in Australia.
Its a tough one, but some investment MUST go into the infrastructure, be it coaching or otherwise.'"
Possibly the best players from the teams in SL which don't really challenge for the CC or GF?
Clark from Cas
Tom Briscoe
Kirkmond
etc
or even try to offer a big money move for one of the best players from the other top clubs?
Watkins? Lomax? Dealings from SL team to SL may be more likely, it's common in Aus for a top player to leave one club to play for another. |

Briscoe wouldn't require a fee.
Etc here clearly means you couldn't think of anyone else! |

Lenagan could lauch satellites into space and use mind control devices on ... hold on a minute, he's already doing that, perhaps he could construct a death star to rule the universe.
Failing that he can spend some money on hanging baskets like the local council have done.

As an example why don't we offer Saints a large amount for Lomax?
What about offering Wire a huge amount for Chris Hill?

The whole thing is totally disgusting.
Wigan - a selling club. Who would have thought it?
Still you can't blame IL- there are plenty of idiots who can't see what's happening it would appear.

Fancy that, your using George "slit my wrists" Riley as a basis to have a go at Lenagan. |

So what about it, Chris Hill? Surely any Wigan fan would love to see him in cherry and white and we have the money available?

Break the bank for Chris Hill?? I doubt that very much, decent player but no better than Scott Taylor, Wire would demand ridiculous money that wouldn't be worth it |

You don't think Chris Hill would strengthen our pack? IMO he is one of the best young British forwards in the game.
Chris Hill has been Warringtons top metre maker this year and only 3rd behind Peacock and Crabtree as far as Props/Metres go. |
