As far as I understand it, ANY team relegated from SL to the Championship (unless booted out for going tits up etc..) gets the parachute payment of about 800k. Sky cash for SL sides is 1.8 million next year, so that's where they got the 1 million figure from.
I agree, it's "tentative" at best and god help them if it's London at Home to Salford come the time......2,000 maximum in a game neither owner gives a damn about, given that a Million is loose change to both of them!
As it stands, Salford are in need of a win against Hull FC or they could be out of the top 8 reckoning before March......every game counts remember

He's good entertainment value though. If we wanted exposure like the WWE, he is the heel.

Didnt Les Boyd get 2 huge bans?

Different era I accept

Yep, including 18 months for deliberately breaking an opponent's jaw, if I remember correctly. At which point he came over here and finished his career without any trouble. Oddly, he was a very quiet and polite bloke to talk to off the pitch.

Boyd smashed Daryl Brohman's jaw and ended his career with a premeditated elbow. Got 12 months, wasn't back long and then picked up a 15 month suspension for eye-gouging.

At the time Jim Comans was on a purge to clean up the game in Australia, and Boyd gave him the perfect opportunity to put down a marker. If you watch some of the NSWRL stuff from the pre-Comans period, it was like Mad Max. Knees and elbows flying in everywhere, players being king hit and taken out off the ball.

Proper rugby back in those days ....
