So it wasn’t simply a case of spending their money better than the other clubs in that season, they actually cheated and bent the rules.
Subsequent points deductions followed but they should have been stripped of their title and the record books should show that we legitimately finished in the highest position
Yes I know Wigan overspent but does that mean LR receives no credit for winning the league? He still had to pick 11 players to go out and win football matches.

Aside from that, do you know what Wigan's budget was in comparison to some of the other clubs I mentioned? Was it significantly more or was it comparable?
