A post about a team in the league below, situated in Cumbria, and you still manage to bring Wigan up.

OBSESSED.

As shown by wikipedia, Wigan are the only SL team to even mention the word "salary" in their entry...

Can you either provide a former for the latter or retract that last statement

The fact that people are struggling to argue using relevant facts and not speculation and hear say means they are resorting to slamming TB's opinion. It's a sign of losing an argument.

Wellsy get your head out of tb`s/VT mods rse will you......






How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?

Without the long-running speculation and hearsay surrounding Barrow and their recruitment policy, do you think the RFL would have felt the need to investigate? Would it necessarily have been reported to the RFL had there not been a lingering suspicion for some time?

I think it was more to do with official complaints than speculation and hear say from fans.

And where do you think the motivation came from to make those official complaints? It's obviously been proven that the rumours weren't without foundation and if anything didn't even begin to tell the full story!

Personally we can go around in circles talking about this but I think the time frame involved suggests the (correct) speculation of some of the fans had little to do with it in the end.
