Trust me, the number of club chairmen who quietly support Wigan makes for a much longer list. But wisely, they're keeping quiet for the moment.cpwigan posted:
INDEPENDENT Judge Peter Charlesworth decided that the RFL Salary CAp regulations were badly drafted, unjust (for applying harsher penalties retrospectively, in contravention of natural justice) and ambiguous, and that the RFL therefore lacked the authority to make the decisions that were the subject of the dispute.

Where does that quote come from? It is an amazingly damning view of the RFL.cpwigan posted:

They make themselves look foolish. The Cas chairman has already done so numerous times already as he bleats about being relegated, wanting the league enlarged so they were not relegate and so on.Yet League Weekly slate Wigan RLFC, include quotes by Kath Hetherington (Hull RLFC), Dave Tarry (Salford Reds) and the ubiquitous Richard Wright (Castleford) criticising the decision.

If Wigan get cleared next week, perhaps they can do the RL world a favour and sue the LEAGUE WEEKLY out of existence.cpwigan posted:
The quote comes from the Rugby Leaguer & League Express, page 3 Dave. That paper takes a calm rational view. The anti Wigan stuff comes from League Weekley whereby the Editor, Danny Lockwood is really 'on one'
The opening page carries a heading "were Wigan driven by principle or plain greed for points?" "The circumventing of the spirit of the salary cap punishments, led by two of the biggest names in the game, does not reflect well on us" WE (WIGAN HAVE NOT BEEN FOUND GUILTY OF ANYTHING, ALAS Lockwood and co seem to have decided our fate beforehand. There is then a shabby piece of journalism by Rebecca Smith who says that Wigan's success in having any overspend dealt with under the more lenient scale of penalties has been met with widespread anger and disbelief (YET She only quotes 3 people, 2 with a very vested interest in seeing Wigan punished) Lockwood then has an editorial piece carrying the title "a breach of trust that's totally unforgivable" with a picture of ML smiling
I will try to add some quotes from Lockwood later
