Agreed.

Please show me where i said I know the exact amount each club gets. You are tilting at windmills (get someone with an education to explain to you what that means). Do you keep a book of starbugs quotes? Must be nice for you.

Starbug, and others, can you not see that whatever you put on here this cowboy is going to come back with some clever a**e comment. The only way is not to respond and to completely disregard him. Let him think he actually does know everything and then he will get bored and move on to some other board. Every board as at least one of his kind who would rather lecture than debate.

Geekay do feel free to respond like an ostrich.... or send me to Coventry. Probably the best way for you to cope with someone who disagrees with you.

I think there is merit in what you suggest.

Still cant say "i dont know" can you poormans Smokey. Are you a politician?

What in you opinion is the solution?

Is that enough?

You made my case. Well done.

You directly accused me of sneering at lower clubs.

How does thinking the concept of commonly owned businesses are moribund a sneer at lower league clubs.



How is telling a poster who dismissed the Giants recent youth development that he must have limited RL knowledge a sneer at lower clubs? (surely you cannot be so stupid to think that challenging a posters knowledge is having a go at lower league clubs?

) How can pointing out that a guy who has a go at 'sugar daddies' and then begs for wealthy inputs is being hypocritical be a sneer at lower level clubs?

You read what I wrote but your blinkers mean you do not understand it. This does not surprise me.

I have little time for clubs that do not pay taxes, or do not pay players or that hide behind CVAs while creditors get screwed.

I think central funds £ should go to developing the grass roots not funding failing private enterprises.

I do not mind commonly owned enterprises. However when the people involved with them get sanctimonious about privately owned organisations I may challenge it. When common ownership activists start getting holier than thou about wealthy club backers while themselves desperately looking for private funds I will point it out. Hardly sneering at 'lower clubs'.

HTH.

so, try again. Find actual examples where I sneer at decent, hard working ,non moralising championship clubs.

keep tilting......

To continue to put central funds into grassroots RL - amateur clubs / schools colleges & Unis + womens RL + expanding the game for older players though modified rules.

I have already praised Kevin Nicholas and Batley on this thread. So it should be obvious that the way that the Bulldogs run themselves would be a very good starting point. HTH.
