| How do we know how much money we spend on our squad if no one at the club wants to offer even a ball park figure.
I've heard:
“Not at, but near the limit” — from Keith Hogg
“1.56 Million” — WireQuin today
“Not the lowest” — another poster

Let's face it. None of us know what money is being spent on the squad but we are all agreed that at the moment, whatever it is, is way too much.
There will apparently be a fans forum soon (mentioned on facebook but I can't find it now ) so there will be an opportunity to put questions to everyone at the club. What kind of answers we get is another thing all together.

From the person that spends it

Is it not down to how you spend the money?

Really? Do you have proof? If not then be careful with your verbal attacks on people. I take it as read that if people on this forum don't agree with you they are idiots etc etc etc, Most of us accept that you are the only person who has a valid viewpoint and the only person who could possibly be right but the statement above could be slanderous. I don't know whether or not it is, I don't know what he has told you and what you have proven to be incorrect from those talks but be careful if this is generalisation and without foundation you could bring trouble to this board.

I knew someone would pick on that, and surprise surprise, it is you.
I do not appreciate your accusations that I am making unfounded, slanderous statements.
On the link up with Puma:
"Harlequins Rugby League chairman, Keith Hogg said: “This is very good news for the club and all Harlequins Rugby League supporters."
Lies, the Kooga shirts were a lot nicer. It took months for our shirts to arrive.
Think before you row in next time.

| slaphead, most of us will agree fully with you, but the calls that Mac is not responsible I can't accept at all, something is wrong within the team and the way we play, Mac has had a good chance and he has Failed.
It is totally pointless spending money of marketing, something we have all been critical about, if we do not have the Product on the pitch that will bring fans back over and over again.
I supported fully the move back to The Stoop and the change of name, but I have serious doubts now about the use of the name of Harlequins!
David Hughes has done so much for Our Club and kept us alive, but he can't do it on his own, if we do not make progress off the pitch as well as on then we no longer deserve a Super League place and if we are thrown out will we ever return?
It is the first time since that first day at Fulham V Wigan, that I have felt this way, we have had our ups and down, but currently we are on the knock out count to ten and time is running out.

I've heard
Hogg would not be lying if he was talking about previous seasons where the salary cap means clubs can spend only 50 per cent of their income on wages, up to a maximum of £1.6 million.
Now we clearly didn't bring in much, so didn't spend much. I would say we have enough money within the cap to go out and sign 5 internationals, and top-line internationals at that, not Cook Islanders, Jamaican or Estonian internationals, but SOO players or current Home Nations players.
I feel the purse strings will loosen with the arrival of the new coaching staff, whether that means David Hughes splurging for a brief time before a new owner takes over, only time will tell.

Morale didn't look very high in the bar after the game especially at the thought of a 6pm training session. I suspect most of the players think BMcD is a right twit. They certainly give off that impression.

It's times like these when the "who are they trying to convince" question has to be asked.
