Well according to Blacks and Branno's facebook comments to each other i dont think branno yet has a deal, as black was asking him the other day if anything was sorted out yet. ( other than the banter about him becoming a Knight and Black going under the wing of Bomber Mcrae ).
If he has priced himself out of the market though then his loss, I think he is a Fantastic player, However there is probably some rough diamonds out there too that could learn to do a similar job for much less money.
Seeing as though we were operating above £300k last year something had to give, Branno, Gene etc would have been big chunks, Also Aizue as it says in his contract ( according to him ) if he can get better deal then he is fine to end the contract early. |

You don't really know much about Jim Gannon then do you. How many games have you seen him play to determine that he's a 'penalty machine'?  |

Right then Mutant, Lets just see if my maths adds up. £100,000 is a six figure sum.
Last year due to signing players before the RFL moved the goalposts it was a £400k cap which we used and then got dispensation along with a few others, Less the 6 figure sum of £100,000 equals the current salary cap of £300,000.
Its still as basic as it was when i did my GCSE's Take one figure, subtract the other = answer !
£400,000 - £100,000 = £300,000
The reason we can get these players coming is Martin Hall. True player magnet ! |

Part of the wording in the article a bit strange , can`t see why stepping up from Keighley makes him wanting to emulate Liam Finn they were both playing Super League at one time .He`s very much his own man is Danny.

Both had Super League at one time, dropped down to lower levels (Finn @ Dewsbury, Jones @ Keighley) then up to Championship Title Hopefuls |

At the end of the day it's up to Fax how they ran ship, just think with such potential especially in youth development it's not the best course of action right now?'"
We don't have a money-bags backer to build a yoof team for the future. What we have is a dedicated Board who put a Championship winning side on the park. You have your crap Championship team and a SL future. Don't come on here spouting how it should be done. We KNOW how it shoukd be done!! Show us the frikkin' money!!! |

To be fair though £231.34 is a six figure sum as well. 
I do have to mention though that J20 is correct in one of his other posts where he says Michael Steele had said that we wernt operating anywhere near the salary cap so the planned cuts wouldnt affect us anyway. It was a story that was printed in the Courier and carried quotes from our Chairman.

It did and then the week after they also published another article saying we were above the £300k cap becuase we had signed players before the RFL brought the cap down.
It's Steele that needs to get it right, or the courier.

What you banging on about? It doesn't make a difference where 100k cones from still needs to be cut regardless.
Yes can see why every player would love to sign for him...erm... Don't get me wrong the lure of Halufax's very strong side and good rugby also loacal to some (Gannnon) may shave a few quid off salary but be realistic in our league for players wages a couple if hundred quid makes more of a difference so to believe you get players for much less than others offer is a tad naive you must admit?
