You only get slated if you post some speculation without providing any kind of detail about where you heard this story...

That's fine, but in the meantime please don't be too upset if some of us choose not to believe you. I've read too many things that were apparently going to be announced soon and never were to take any real notice until announcements are made by the club.

Some would say he was past his best long before he left Wigan. His last season in particular was pretty much a waste of time, and whilst he's apparently had a great year this year, there's no guarantee that would continue next year.

totally agree.the last season where carney was in form was when we last made the grand final, since then his form was very poor for us.also he would probably be on a big salary.....this money could be better spent elsewhere in the team!!

Welcome to the forum.
Sorry there is no truth what so ever in what you have said. Bailey has made plans and will be here sometime after Christmas. I cannot find out exactly when. A property for him has not been allocated for him as yet but this will be I have been told before he arrives.
Sorry for blowing your first story.

No sorry I have asked a number of times but all I get is a big fat blank,I have asked, just tell me he is not coming. But it will not be confirmed either way.
Just asked again about him and the best I can get is Wigan 100% want him but a number of situation are blocking the move at the moment, a shuffle around would be needed before he could come. I asked does he want to come? After going all around the houses I was told he would love to pull the cherry and white on with the biggest bonus being back with Noble! It seems the money aspect has been agreed in principal. I also asked does it look like it will be sorted out the answer being who knows!
