I thought we might win down there today but again we must of been poor to say the least we are getting laughed at by all the other teams in SL and by some of our so called big players sort it Wire.

actually you arnt
at most clubs its a subject of debate, ie can you buy on field passion???

you splashed the cash and failed.

no glory or laughter form real rl fans there, just a lesson for every club to learn, this is not wendyball!

How have we splashed the cash? We can spend no more than anybody else.

I'm not laughing at you but a week or so again I was a bit worried as the rumour was out that you were about to name a new manager. I thought it would be Brian Mcdermott, thank god he stayed with us.

legally yes

How naive of you

Splashbacks on our cash as it wends its way down the urinal

you can spend a greater percentage of income generated as per the rules
including club sponsors.

sorry not trying to be anti wire but the general perception of your club in rl in the last few years is you have splashed the cash!

morley
king
monas
gleeson
andersons

again to be clear not critisising, at wakey id love 13 m for a new ground for a start!

i though we had a good chance of beating them after the performance against Leeds where we showed more heart and promise but obviously something has happened in the week and its torn the team apart...on the face its probably a good thing it has happened and with a decent coach at the helm who wont take any nonsense, he has probbaly seen enough already to make his own decisions and turn the club into a club to play for instead of a nursing home for old overated injury prone players to live out the last of there playing days because thats all its been for the last 5-6 yrs.



the P&B with pride

Yes players we have sigend have been injury prone and not played enough but we have given them contracts to carry on playing for us and thats why we get laughed at can anyone tell me that Reardon, Jonhson, V Anderson & Bridge care?

As long as they have got money to pay for tatoos they are happy.

i wish i could give that Brian bevan statue a blood transfusion so he could play for us again

No, of course you can't...

But people or organisations...unconnected with the club...can pay money to players and it won't count on the cap if structured properly.

(And if you get the structure wrong...see e.g. "Image Rights"... been there done that lost the bloody tee-shirt and two league points...)

And that's just the LEGAL way of doing it.

So if player X signs for the club, but it just so happens that company Y (who is not a club sponsor or is otherwise supposedly connected with the club) chooses to pay megabucks to player X for promoting their products or services (or whatever..) then thats OK apparently.

Its probably even OK if the club happens to...introduce...the player to the...third party.

And its probably even OK if the player for some strange reason agrees to a well-below-market package from the club - presumably because he believes he is earning enough already cos why else would he do it...?

And that's without resorting to brown envelopes or the Singapore Parachute or pots of cash sitting somewhere offshore just waiting to be picked up on the way through...

Allegedly.

Level playing field? Someone is having a laugh!

We lost out on King, allegedly after verbally agreeing terms, once bigger cheque books were waved. Maybe, as we found out with a certain pseudo-welsh Wire alumnus, the cash ain't the answer?

Anyway...speaking of having a laugh...join the club 9.91015625:10
