We can moan about the cap all day long but it is here and is here to stay. Deal with it.

Just because there is a salary cap it does not mean we cannot be a top side again. We have the money to buy players but instead lets focus on the young lads we do have and develop them. Michael McIlorum, Sean Ainscough, Sam Tomkins, Joel Tomkins, Paul Prescott, Eamon O'carroll, Darrell Goulding, Lee Mossop etc

Our two best performers for the last few weeks have been home grown - Sean O'loughlin and Gareth Hock. Your home grown players are vital to a successful side and considering Wigan have some of the best local talents in rugby league in the UK we should look to develop them into world class players to benefit the side and to put us back where we belong.

It pains me when I saw Shaun Briscoe keep Hull KR in the game by rushing over to push the ball into touch, stopping a certain try and then to see on our end Cameron Phelps beaten twice.

Quote: Bilko "We have no god given right to beat Hull KR. They are a top team with a top coach and a quality half back. We would be greatful for one of them three in my opinion.'"


Nice to see someone who knows what they are talking about and are not totaly blinkered.

Quote: General Zod. "Now you are just being an idiot - the type who gives your club a bad name.

Without going into details of what I know, Lenegan would not be prepared to dip in his pockets like Crossland would so thank your lucky stars that there is a salary cap in place - otherwise you'd be even further behind us than you already are...'"



Quit the patronising drivel.



Wigan are the biggest club in RL.

I know that, you know that, hell, everyone who reads this knows that.


The CC means that Wigan occupy an unnatural position in that we cannot assume our rightful place at the top of the "buying" pyramid. This doesn't happen in Soccer.

If a CC was introduced in Soccer, then suddenly Man Utd would be compelled to spend as much as Aston Villa...........the results would be much the same.


At the end of the day though, they would still be Man Utd, and by the same token we are still Wigan RL.



The most amusing thing though is that Hull KR will win BUGGER ALL this year. Zilch. Nothing. You will away, and despite this faux altruistic BS, we will laugh at you.


A mid table team, boosted by the sham that is the CC.

Enjoy, as it won't last.

I've just realised that when he says CC he actually means, in his words 'Communist Cap'.

What a joke!

I can say though, he is a minority of a Wigan fans like this. Most others have nothing but congratulations for us.

Quote: Roverswall "Oh my good god I knew where you sat on this subject just be reading you posts in this thread.
So just because wigan can't do what the hell they want they are the wronged party boo hoo.
If you dont like it sunshine go and watch Football where money is the route of all its evil's you will fit right in there.
I on the other hand will watch a sport where a team who had once developed a fan base on getting lucky when they started waving the chequebook about and put RL years behind can no longer do what ever it please's even if the likes of you throw a paddy fit.'"


Shut up you bloody Communist.

Losing to Hull KR is not good enough- they are a mid table side, whatever the current table would tell you.


Must do better.'"

Don't you find it a tad worrying that no-one, and by that I mean your own fans, agree with you?

It was always going to be a tough match with the weather. KR just took their chances better than Wigan did. In the last 20mins we self-destructed.

You cannot say they are an average side, having beaten Wigan and Saints AWAY in the same season.

Your link of the Challenge Cup with the salary cap is one of an inane, misguided and out of context rambler.

And even if your point was correct, we have a richer board than Lenegan and co. and therefore would be above you in the "buying paramid".

Have you failed to notice how out of control that sport actually is?
