The hatred - jealousy is that deep , Unless they were really strapped for cash , then Leeds or Wires or Huddersfield could find another quarter of a million from their salary caps !.
Personally I think this is another rumour .
Althoouh I agree the Graham deal is probably just another rumour, the reason for recent animosity between the clubs was a personal one between McManus and Whelan - prior to that we've had plenty good players move between the two clubs, (most notably Platt & Connolly), and as someone else has said, IL seems to be on pretty good terms with them.

What about Andy Platt, Gary Connolly and to a lesser extent Brett Goldspink....
Oh, and Saints are cash strapped apparently

anything recent?...

The Higham deal had to go through Bradford as Saints would not sell him to us so Bradford had to sign him and then do the deal for Newton.

I dont think Saints are ever as strapped as people make out.
