You don't know much about Gilmour do you?






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

A VT thread involving Wigan is going to be negative, regardless.


Who could be negative about Wigan?

A club with only 20k left in the salary cap pot (plus the few quid Mathers will have freed up) being able to entice a player of Gleeson's calibre is one that deserves nothing but praise.

I was not aware that preparation for Martin's post rugby league career was still in its infancy.

A Cas fan on a thread about Wigan mentioning the salary cap, who would have thought it?

We paid 200k for gleeson in 2004 as a 24/25 year old at he top of his game. 100k for someone who's 29 next month and in not so good form is just a great bit of business for Wire. Besides this, 100k or nothing in October?.. hmmm, Mathers or no Mathers thats a great deal for us. Gleeson wanted out and Moran had earlier agreed to release him at end of 09 as a good will gesture anyway ("symapthetic")

On his day Gleeson is Britains best centre, but those days don't come along everyday.

The question now is, who does TS have lined up? Atkins, Shenton, Lyon?

DaveO on your board.

A very intelligent poster who doesn't come across as the sort to tell lies.

You're gonna get warrington fans trying to put a positive spin on things, but i for one think it's a crap deal for warrington. Fair enough if he wants to go get rid but we should have done a better deal than that.






The best way to predict the future is to create it...

To be fair to Dave, that figure is his own reckoning based off posts from RLFANS.

So your source is totally unreliable.

Any other attempts to disregard the subject and just have a 'pop' at anything to do with Wigan?
