Quote: rubber duckie "Rico I think you being a little impish.
you know full well what I mean.
okay I'll bite.
There is always a difference in contract payment but they are far more subtle and fare, as you have to balance the cap into a 1st team squad of 25ish players.
Under this system the animosity is suppressed as the difference is within a margin.
If you have one player and golden ticket 2 or 3 players not within the cap, then there is an open cheque book and we go back to a system where players frequently fall out of favour because some new signing at his club is on more money than him, so they can get on the transfer market to get that deal from a director of another club who promised him £xxxxx over a game of golf if he joins them.'"


Ok then I will bite back.

I play for Warrington on £80k a year and look enviously at Roy Asotasi on his big bucks, it's part of the cap I'm stuck, unless that useless lump Chris Hill buggers off to Australia to be with Mike Cooper, or Paul Wood retires/goes to Salford.

Hang on though, Big Roy (2014 GF winner, MOS and Warrington's MVP) alerts TS that he wants to play for Widnes or else, so Moran and TS decide to take Big Roy out of the Salary Cap equation and make him our Marquee Player. Great here's my chance, his £250k is doubled to keep the big guy happy, he deserves it ran his blood to water and the saving on the cap is split between me, Kevin Penny and Gareth O'Brien.

Happy days everyone wins

We will obviously go round the circular duck pond here, but, my original post was that I was going to try harder to get my slice. If I'm that good then Wire won't need Joe Bloggs, or a Joe Blogs on top Roy the Boy's big money.

BTW I think your next post that referred to being "careful what you wish for..." alludes to this. There's a limited pool and after you've got your marquee player, your average Joe Bloggs taking his slice of freed cap will be forcing up ticket prices, or sugar daddy subsidies without necessarily putting bums on seats.

My bigger slice will of course will be well deserved.

If I was the supporter of a "have-not" club and, hypothetically, mid-season was in the relegation mire I would be soiling my proverbials at the thought that my chairmen might risk the clubs stability, finances, future and existence with a final throw of the dice in the direction of a marquee player.

The cap was brought in to save clubs from themselves, and some of them clearly haven't learnt their financial lessons.

Dr NoClass may be a mouth in charge of a brain, but his saving grace is he is clearly an astute businessmen but he needs to understand the majority of SL chairmen, however well-intentioned, are not.
