Re: Salary Cap Hearing

<t>Questions.<br/> It is suggested that we are making good the shortfall to players this year. If the payments are spread over 3-4 years do they apply to the salary cap in those years also? Or, as we have already been punished, do we disclose the payments as back pay for 2006?<br/> Secondly, if we a...

Re: Chev Walker.....

Sorry, but Millward always believed that as long as you scored more than the other team you were o.k.
Unfortunately, we did not have a team capable of scoring and that's where he went wrong.

DV should play for free! No thank you.

Re: A Phone Call Will Seal...

I suspect that any new forwards will come from the U.K. on a modest dalary. The relegated SL club for example whose players will be looking to retain employment in the higher grade.
That player may be playing poorly now but Noble has an eye for players he can transform.

Re: New signing

<t>Just for the record folks, Tony Duggan plays for Celtic Crusaders in SW. but is Australian and played for Toowoomba Clydesdales. He was once on the books of Brisbane Broncos so can't be that bad.<br/> If he has impressed at Celtic he might be a cheap signing for Wigan next year? :conf: Who knows!...

<t>Quite right DaveO. I cannot believe that having been stung once that Wigan have not employed their own Auditor to ensure that they did not exceed the cap.<br/> I am assuming therefore that any breach is down to interpretation.<br/> Am I missing somthing here?

Re: Salary cap and Newton

<r>A certain Mr Millward was responsible for us losing Newton. Don't forget Nobby was still at Bradford when they signed him and no doubt he was very pleased at the time.I Suspect he would love to have him back at Wigan now.<br/> Of course, the directors have been trying to get out of the poo and po...
