| According to a lad who has been going to games with us since the 80's we actually signed john devereux. His actual words were 'the contract has been signed, it's in the safe'. Idiot. He knows who he is because he reads these boards, but never posts.

Remember this: menmedia.co.uk/manchesterevening ... _talk.html
Quote :1c40zqy4The claims made are utter rubbish and absolute fabrication at all conceivable levels:1c40zqy4,WARRINGTON Wolves have rubbished reports suggesting they are to move for Salford-born Great Britain international Adrian Morley.
Morley has been linked in the past with a return at some stage to his home-town club.
But according to Wolves coach Paul Cullen he definitely won't be going to the Halliwell Jones Stadium in the foreseeable future.
"The claims made are utter rubbish and absolute fabrication at all conceivable levels," said Cullen.
"We will not allow our supporters and sponsors to be misled in this manner."
Morley, one of the few English-born players to make the grade in the NRL in recent years, is currently playing for Sydney Roosters in Australia.
It has been suggested the 27-year-old forward is considering taking out Aussie citizenship in order to play in the high- profile State of Origin games.
But if Morley does decide to return to the North West, it will cost any future buyers a substantial sum.
And neither Salford nor Warrington would seem to have the resources to secure his services. '"

| Quote sally cinnamon="sally cinnamon"Good shout for remembering Naas Botha. I don't remember it at the time but in one of my old Rothmans books it mentioned that we'd been linked with him.
Some names here that I had totally forgotten.
Kimmorley I always hoped would come to us. We were linked with him several times and when we signed Michael Monaghan there was something in the Warrington Guardian saying we had the chance to sign Kimmorley but chose Monaghan over him.
I was disappointed when the Neil Turley deal didn't come off although it seemed like he'd been trying to push and push for a bigger and bigger deal. With hindsight it is crazy how he was hyped up as such a big name signing, considering he had only played in the U21s and NFP. When he did come into SL in 2005 he was just average. I think we dodged a bullet with Turley, he might have been the Ryan Leaf of rugby league. When he couldn't sign Turley, Plange signed Westwood instead.
Also remember the April Fool about Iestyn Harris when somebody photoshopped Iestyn Harris' head on Mark Hilton's body and sent it out as a press release from a fake email address supposedly from Gina Coldrick, which got all the newspapers buzzing.'"
I remember being sat at home, and that comming up on the bottom of the screen on sky sports news, that he had re-signed..........I was made up at the time !!!!!

| Quote lefty goldblatt="lefty goldblatt"Hanley, when he "fell out" with the Wigan board, in '88.
Rumours going round (haha) was that we were going to sign him, with a cash injection from Greenalls.
If only..
Conversly, Mike Greg going to Wigan (Jan '89) on Challenge Cup deadline day.
The rumour mill was going into overdrive for about a week'"
 Both classics, these.
I remember a price of 250k being mentioned for Hanley, which was astronomical at the time - I think the record outright fee then was the 100k paid by Wigan for Joe Lydon. The football record between British clubs was only £1.5 million then. Anyway, whilst queuing up on Fletcher Street (may even have been for an A team game), Tony Barrow walked past and someone shouted "two hundred and fifty for Hanley, Tony?", to which he replied "I haven't got 250 pennies"
As far as the Gregory one goes, I recall the word was that he was going to sign for Wigan at half-time of the New Year's Day game.

I remember Cat phoning me and saying "guess who we've signed....." I thought it was a wind up then he said go on Sky Sports News....
Although in Iestyn Harris' autobiography he said that although that April Fool thing was a wind up, Warrington did come in for him later in the season when he left Cardiff and came back to league, but he chose Bradford.
