I think we have been guilty of all these financial situations from not paying contractors and players so maybe we are not in the best position to comment on others about their historical failings.

On the contrary, Scarlet, it could be argued that we are very well qualified to comment on such matters as we are all aware of our woeful financial issues in years gone by, but fortunately for us, MC and JM came in and settled the ship and we now have our knight in shining armour in Matt Ellis who has promised that we will never be in such a dire situation again

Yes, fortunately were not in that situation, and as far as players wages are concerned, that goes back to the pre Glover era

Under the Pearman era the wages were never paid from day one!
It’s remarkable that Andy Kelly got those players to win 3 from the first 7 games, given that the players had not been paid a single penny all season! Cheques bouncing around all over the place!

Jorge Taufua suspended for two matches for a grade C offence dangerous contact with the head of an opponent
Lee Gaskill out for six weeks hamstring
Daniel Okoro out for six weeks broken jaw

Going into a season with Gaskell as one of your main halfbacks is a recipe for disaster as well we know.

Sheffield really giving it to Wigan tonight, they're pretty much flying under the radar.
