Quote: reffy "In my opinion it is a system you have thought up which would have ensured promotion for Leigh, it is a contrived handicapping system. Giving Leigh a 5 point start over Wakefield when there are only 14 available is a nonsense.'"
It's likely we'll lose to Widnes on Sunday while Wakefield will beat Sheffield so we'd still miss out on the million pound game even with a 5 point start. I think 5 points is a reasonable start for a team which had only lost one game out of 23 over one which has only won 3, might have prevented them from admitting to throwing the whole regular league competition which is surely bad for the competition & sport.
As for the salary cap Championship clubs do need to be able to spend closer to the SL clubs they're playing but obviously have to be careful of clubs over spending. As it stands isn't the £1Million cap only available to clubs that can prove they have the money & there's a lower cap for other clubs? Another tier at say £1.4M for clubs that can show they have the money & a financial plan could help.
