Not according to employment law if I remember, as players re-structured contracts. Whelan I think tried to put this across but the RFL would not accept it. So technically we were not over as players had monies deferred, if I remember correctly. However you also went over the cap to back into SL.

as much as we have bantered today i do quite like wigan n for a team there size i thing hanleys not the way forward when u have someone like noble already

You really are pathetic, reguardless of that year, look at my sig, Castleford will never be or do any of that. Castleford are tiny compared to Wigan, you dream of being a club like us, go back to your own board seriously.

You only have 26 posts and most of them are on here, did you just sign up to wind Wigan fans up? dont answer that though.

IMO Noble's not the way forward either.

maybe not mate at the min,surley to sack him n bring in hanley n betts is a step back...like if we sack matterson n give andy hay the job id be vexed off...if u sack noble u need someone half decent maybe like tony smith

Like I said, Raper/Lam for me

well for me bud i was happy when we got raper and he did a dam good job for us and wish we still had him ( no dis-respect to matterson )raper is a very good coach

He was, and I'm sure is. We need some passion back at Wigan, hence my suggestion of Lam, he's young but sharp and knows what it means to wear Cherry and White.
