Who mentioned ruining Harris?
The point about Harris is,that he was poached by Leeds via a 3rd party,the same is happening with us and Myler.and imo,the sooner the rfl,clamp downt on this the better,just to prove that the franchise system works and not that the farce that its turned into.
And imo,the sooner

| Quote getdownmonkeyman="getdownmonkeyman"2003 we were still at Wilderspool haemorrhaging cash. 2004/2005 for mine was a period of stability, 2006 onwards, which is pretty much our time spending the full cap, this would have been our time to start imposing ourselves on finals, but we have no divine right to oust the likes of Leeds and Saints.
We must have had some cash in the late 80's/early 90's as we were signing the likes of Andy Gregory and Jonathan Davies. From memory it was about 95/96 where we really started to hit the skids.
Regarrding Smith, if Leeds were so poop hot, why had they not won anything since 1999? He gained them a pot by his second season.'"
Hertel (sponsors) bankrolled Davies IIRC (Widnes could not pay his contract), not sure about Andy Greg but we were semi-pro then anyway. Period 2006 onwards wasnt to do with divine rights, we were'nt even on the same page to compete due to choice of coach.
It would be interesting to know why, this skint club (as you moot), could afford the likes of Blake, Boyd, Roach, Davidson et al in a pre-SL era without TV money. |

Didn't we ruin Halliwell? I remember people with bucket collections trying to keep him as he was THAT good. Then he went into oscurity after our touch.
Maybe people are thinking we ruined Noone, Hulse, Durbin, Alstead, Sibbit too (the list is long). Or maybe they were never, ever, good enough.
We didn't seem to ruin Scully or Harris. |

first point,bucket colllections,never happened,2nd point all these were not goood enough anyway,third point our crooked chairman sold them and trousered the cash,hence simon came in and sorted the clubs finances out and here we are. |

Semi-pro in 1985? Very minimal pro, with Mike Gregory being the only fulltime player.
Have you read what I wrote? Up to the mid-90's we were competitve, frpm about '96 onwards we went to bits. |
