Something to ponder? If we appeal and if need be threaten legal action. Can they deduct the points now? If such dealings are protracted and the points remain, maybe they will not be removed to take effect this year?

You spend too much time on RLfans

Who on earth cares what a small number of looney tunes on that anarchic site think.
Do you think Wigan breaching the cap has anything to do with our popularity or rather unpopularity? It has always been thus. Success breeds jealousy.
Maybe you should look closer to home when talking about naive

Alex, if deferred payments breach the salary cap then so does playing for free. So Kris Radlinski is a cheat. That is how ludicrous the cap is.
All this would be irrelevant if the cap did not exist
Get rid

Too true! I have NEVER cared what any other fans from other club's think about MY club. I support Wigan and have no liking or even passive interest in almost all other teams in this country. Harsh - maybe, but a fact of life.

Hows about this for a novel idea that would have saved all the disgrace that has been brought upon this great club of ours by this little egit.....
A PHONE CALL TO REDHALL SUMMER 2006
MAURICE: HI ITS MAURICE LINDSAY FROM WIGAN RLFC. WOULD IT BE OK FOR SOME OF OUR PLAYERS TO DEFER THERE WAGES TO ENABLE US TO STAY UNDER THE CAP?
RED HALL: NO MAURICE IT IS NOT!!
MAURICE: OK THEN WELL HAVE TO DO WITH WHAT WEVE GOT (puts phone down)
Now that would have saved a whole load of crap flying about.

All the top 5 clubs do it its just that we are too honest. Saints have broken it every year but suprise, suprise not by a lot. They keep replacing palyers with better players and their money never goes up. When people sign a new contract im not having it that they do not get a pay rise as success breeds greed as we can vouch for that in the 90's.

COUNT ME IN. This is not a BREACH of the salary cap, its just a total disreguard of it. [homophobic rant removed - WARNING: next time the entire message gets deleted not matter what it says - Fraggle]

Lets not make excuses by saying other teams cheat as well. I am not concerned about other teams. The fact is Lindsey knew what he was doing and the players and the supporters have been let down, and this great club have been found guilty of cheating not once but twice.How must the players feel after playing their hearts out to have 2 hard fought wins taken from them? Mr Lindsey and his financial advisors are a disgrace and if we want to regain our reputation then we must be seen to distance ourself from dubious practices and Maurice Lindsey should leave the club with immediate effect.
