The issue isn't the other £40'000, but where it comes from. Allegedly in this case it's from another company owned by MK, which isn't allowed as it would render the salary cap meaningless.
That's the point.. Is the player not allowed to earn any extra money from any company owned or partly owned by the Chairman of the club or any of his family or relatives, or any director or any relative of a board etc .


First the additional income should be declared. It appears it was not. Then the RFL can ascertain what work was done / the going rate for such work / the player's qualifications for doing that work etc.




But if the extra payment was made to a separate company owned solely by TP, then as has been stated the RFL have no business looking into its books..

Pretty certain he'll play in SL via the Marquee signing rule, you never know with Sheens and Marshalls Tigers connection it might happen, would he fit in the new work ethic I don't quite think he would.

The Doc naive

If we are guilty we just need to hear the sentence. I would guess Marwan`s legal team will await the verdict and then consider the timing of any appeal.

If we are destined for the bottom 4 then I would feel the appeal against sentence may not come at all - if we are in the top eight then I would feel there wont be an appeal until seasons end as no doubt the points deduction will come next year.

I am hopeful therefore that we will at least be in the top 8 in one of the years & maybe lower down in the other. All depends on the deduction envisaged doesnt it? So lets stay positive.

Too late mate already signed for Leigh.
