"Make a profit" ??

Is that why you sold you best player "cash upfront" to Wire a couple of seasons ago.
Also, how much of the Fulton loans are still on the books or, were they written off when he passed away ?

Having a wealthy guy to take care of any losses seems a little different from being "in profit".

Agree about competent on the field and not sure about the use of the cap and any marque player(s)

The cup run and hub cap have certainly helped and well done on those.

Hull FC & Hull KR

Lets face it they have started the process already with running a joint academy. Plus listening to Lee Radford on Rugby AM about the state of junior rugby league in Hull it makes even more sense.


Workington & Whitehaven

Yes a profit https://www.google.co.uk/amp/s/www.york ... 738442/amp Things have improved considerably since Daz Clark was sold 4 years ago... Increase in attendances, League leaders prize money, Denny Solomona settlement. I believe the Fulton debt was converted to shares.

We haven’t been bank rolled for 3 years and obviously won’t this year with last season, what part of ‘no financial assistance’ don’t you get ??? Banging on about how we have been bank rolled in the past is about as much use as me banging on about the 367 times wakey have gone bust. I have no idea how much We owe the Fulton’s and as long as we keep making a profit it doesn’t matter does it.

No....they posted a profit. The profit bit is a fact BTW.....unlike wakefields new stadium

A Leigh and Catalans merger works for me

It's true that Fax don't have a recent history of taking academy level players through the reserves into the first team, but it's certainly something that's being addressed... rlhttps://www.halifaxrlfc.co.uk/squads/halifax_academyrl, and we do have one player (Will Calcott) that did come via the academy and has progressed through the reserves to play for the 1st team.

There are three clubs about 50 feet away from each other all competing for the sameCALDER UNITED RLFC and play at the new Castleford Stadium??

The 3 clubs right now are about as useful as one of these....

Halifax will not be an isolated case - all the better sides in the Championship will be full of ex SL developed players. I ask again - should the monies go to these clubs that have consistently demonstrated an inability to develop young players either for themselves or other clubs.

What is the point in keeping clubs going that neither develop young players or who attract any kind of supporter base? Surely the monies are better spent elsewhere?

I reckon they'd lose 25% of their core support, meaning they'd have an average of 12,000 immediately and in a 15k stadium, there's be a demand for tickets......but, the missing 3,000 fans would whine like ugly bridesmaids about 100's of years of history.......putting off any new younger fans.
Wakefield and the like are the anchor that is holding SL from actually being super.....they are in the shadow of Castleford who have shown what can be achieved by marketing themselves.

Young ones are as entrenched as the older ones - If the team wasn't dominated by one team then I doubt the support would ebb away to such a degree. The attendances would be hugely influenced by the success on the field - surely merging them increases that possibility.

You need an anchor wrapped around you and thrown in the Calder.

You reckon that 75% of Trinity and Rovers fans would go to Cas to watch a merged team? You’re not as bright as you think you are.
