Is that a structurally reinforced donkey specially bred to take the weight? Or does he have an endless line of them, like a pony express, with the next poor donkey waiting to replace the current poor donkey when it snaps?  |

| July 23rd 2008‘The decision makers should hang their heads in shame,’ said chief executive Allan Rowley.
‘We now have a team that fielded 10 overseas players against us, because they are classed as a development team, and are now in our elite competition which is a complete contradiction of terms and we feel this decision is purely a geographical one.
‘We know that there is no system for appealing but we are definitely going to ask the RFL how Celtic ticked more boxes than us we owe that to the public of Leigh.’
.....bet he wishes he'd kept his mouth shut now

If a team gets relegated it shouldnt be ruined as a result of it. IMO they should be allowed to carry on with the contracts they have already signed but any new signings/contracts signed should only be allowed if there is an overall reduction that would bring it in line with the salary cap.

God you Leigh folk are thick.
How about if Celtic were allowed no overseas payers but had double the salary cap? Same problem

The easiest solution for the RFL is to expand the Championship to 12 clubs, 2 up and keep Leigh, then introduce one new club + Donny to C1.
As it's Leigh going down however, who knows?

Rovers have no special dispensation, Lovegrove is classed as home grown till he leaves Rovers when he'll be classed as Federation Trained. Only players next season to have any kind of dispensation will be Stan if he signs a new deal! So what is your point? |

Not being funny or anything but who will be leaving then (apart from azuie)
As excluding dispensations you can only have 6 overseas players next season and you have 10 this season (including two on dispensation) |

Then we have the real problem with the competitions outside SL
All bar one or two clubs are struggling to raise enough revenue to spend up to the salary cap in either division without massive input from their BOD,s
No clubs are making increases in attendances
No clubs are improving off the field to any large degree
This is what is needed more than anything else
None of these clubs are going to draw in big money investors , even the expansion clubs that then do have a pathway to eventually make SL
The clubs outside SL need investment to improve their fan bases and ultimatley their income streams
But do the RFL want the current clubs both heartland and expansion to grow ?
If this happens it will be harder for any new clubs to make the jump from an idea to a competitive Championship club
Therefore less likely for anybody to take the risk
As for any messing about to save Leigh ? , why we were rubbish we deserved to go down , we ask for SC dispensation , they either give it or dont
Either way we will still be around next year , the year after and the year after
