Nope. We've decided to give jobs to mates of the coach.
Quote: wire-quin "We all know Hughesey will cough up on Broncos debts.'"
I don't know if Hughes will or will not cover any losses we may make. He certainly has covered AK's aspirations financially for 2015, but they still haven't thrashed out the fine points......and Hughes is a negotiator, having nearly destroyed us totally in 2013. As it is, I'd prefer to think that the squad we have assembled are costing us no more than our central funding and the day to day running costs are being met by commercial activity.
Quote: wire-quin "Have Leigh got the equivalent?'"
From what I've read, Leigh have put in place a business plan that will prevent them from over-stretching. Mike Norris their Chairman recently was quoted as saying
[i“We can then continue to roll out our plans in the measured way we believe will enable us to fulfil our ambitions. I am confident I can oversee that strategy and lead us along the path and look forward to doing so.”[/i
Quote: wire-quin "I'm hoping Leigh aren't going for a boom or bust approach'"
I suspect that they are well within their budgets for 2015 having been a very well run business on and off the field in 2014. If they were going for bust to get back up, it would take more than 1 35yr old player to get them there.....
