But we all know it's inevitable that if they keep splashing their cash and buying quality players that they will.

You have only won 2 trophies, in as many years, since the money has been rolling in. Before this, you were hardly the 'force' in RL which you are now. Is there any wonder why people are questioning your cap?

How long do you think Warrington have been operating at full salary cap? I reckon four years at most. At the end of 2005 season we were sufficiently short of maximum cap to afford to pay all that money for Andrew Johns to sign.

You have just explained yourself that when Wire spend their money they win trophies! That is why other fans are questioning the 'elasticity' of the Wire cap.

No significant money to spend - Win no trophies in decades

Lots of money to spend - Win 2 CC cups!

This is the sole reason why other fans are doubting the Wire cap. Numerous huge signings on what seems an impossible cap budget.

You have honestly lost me.

It seems obvious; when Warrington weren't spending the full salary cap they had no chance of winning anything yet when they start to spend the full cap they are in the mix for trophies.

This shows why clunbs should be forced to spend near to the full cap so that all teams are competitive. If a club can't afford to then its goodbye to Super League for them.

You've always spent to the cap Andrew Johns was another back pocket payment from Mr Moran.

Just look at your squad if 20 of them are not on
£1,000 to £2000 then you have 20 idiots playing for you.

Example Carvell £165,000 a year with us didn't go to you for less not with his manager his wife

The Warrington Football Club Limited, aka Warrington Wolves, has accumulated losses of £4.3m and has a note in the accounts that a going concern basis is appropriate because the continued support of its holding company. Its holding company, Warrington Sports Holdings Limited, has accumulated group losses of £2.6m. Perhaps you could point us in the direction of the Warrington Wolves related financial entity that is racking up profits.

Not surprised, I expected him to join Wire, this will strengthen them even more.
