Toronto Wolfpack will be announcing a new addition to the squad tomorrow. @ashtonsims26 suggests this is our biggest signing so far

Look through their squad and compare it to other SL spending full cap and you’ll see they’ll still have room. Pownall, Bussey, Worthington, Kay, Ackers, Sidlow, Emmitt, Rawsthorne etc. They’ll hardly cost a fortune.

Luckily, Matthew Shaw did an article on TotalRL a few weeks ago to debunk the idiots who claim TWP are somehow over the cap:

I guess he will be a 'marquee signing' that will make it 3 now.....Bless

It doesn’t take a genius to look at their squad and come to the conclusion that it doesn’t cost them £1.9m, compared to those squads that we know spend full cap.

Of course, you could not bother to look or engage your brain, and come to the conclusion it’s all a conspiracy.

Cheeky sod, I did not start the topic, I just asked about the 'wage slips' and also the 'marquee signings' which do not count in the cap.

The referee's indecision is final:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_3738.gif



what chance does a new club in a new area trying to blaze a trail for our sport and establish the game in previously unchartered waters have if these are the sort of comments that greet its every move. i mean what do you want? we've had folk crying out for years about lack of expansion and here some are hammering a club for actually giving it a go. of course they have to be cut some slack in the short term in terms of a competitive side.

shall we just give up and let the game fester along the m62?

It is 'what it is'. Our game is already suffering with average/past it imports, Toronto will only add to this.....the player pool is only so big, and New York will drain it even more.
Next step by the RFL to help them will be, no restrictions on overseas (ha ha, I mean non English) players....watch this space.
What do the ECB do about pathetic attendances at county championship cricket games, invite teams from 'planet earth'. NO, so counties have to use English talent, and eventually it pays dividends.
Toronto are a NEW club and their rich owner is excited right now, let's see how they are faring (like the pathetic M62 clubs have been for) in a 100 years. c015.gif

RU dried up as a source 15 years ago, decent Aussies stopped coming in numbers about 10 years ago. How long should we give sides entirely reliant on products from other clubs and imports to become self sufficient? London have produced more half decent SL players than some clubs. About the only club deserving a pass mark from the last decade is Wigan.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

how's your French? I ask because without the British you'd be a totally FRENCH speaking nation and in all probability, under the rule of trump....

Yeah....none whatsoever.
New France was established in 1534 and remained under French rule power was ceded to the United Kingdom in 1763 after the war.......so without the British, Canadians (note I didn't say you) would be speaking French and French alone. Given the relationship between the 3 parties involved in North America, it's fair to say that if France had won the war with Britain, then the US would have gone hell for leather after Canada......so....nope....I'd say I have a pretty good grasp of History.

Dear Lord and Saint Francis of Assisi,give me patience with him....he is like a yearning child yet to admit even his own ignorance.
