Quote: Him "Except I think the cap has done its job as far as it can of levelling the playing field.
We’ve had Salford making the Grand Final. Huddersfield finishing 1st. Cas finishing 1st and making the Grand Final. Huddersfield, Hull FC, Hull KR, Cas all making the Cup Final. Warrington finishing 1st, making the Grand Final and winning the cup. Hull FC winning the cup.
These teams won’t be able to compete consistently until they up their revenue streams and can not only spend on players but also spend on youth systems that rival Leeds, Wigan and Saints.'"
I agree with most of that but you are talking about small towns. Cas has a population of 40k yet they get around 8k crowds most weeks. If Leeds got that high a percentage of our poulation we would need a stadium bigger than Wembley.
All very well saying increase your revenue streams but how can they do that when they are working wonders to compete as they are.
I bet Cas' hospitality is booked to capacity most games now.
Theres no money in the game.
