"I've got one word for you Mr Chairman - Penalty Count"
[quote="The Daddy"]I've got one word for you all......Steve Hanley[/quote]
Some Salford fan said to me and I quote "You are by far and away the most Handsome & Knowledgeable Rugby League Fan in England!"
I thanked him and went on my Merry way!
RIVERCAVE DWELLER OF THE YEAR 2015!
"The club used you last night and didn't tell the truth."
Officially one of the 119 Mugs used by the club:icons077e_files/5454-3678dentheman-msnicons.jpg |

| Quote: Rogues Gallery "It just doesn't make sense for any club not to use the marquee rule if they have a homegrown player earning more than £100K per year, or an overseas player earning more than £150K per year.
You may as well declare them and have the difference available if another squad player becomes available (FPN last year) Just to put some figures to make it clearer. Suppose you have a local player on £200K per year and you declare him than you have an extra £100K available on your salary cap'"
Glad you said it rogues
My reply was going to be No,EVERY club will probably have one! |

But if you're not spending up to the full cap (and by implication, have no intention of doing so) then why bother? |

Well it's not... clubs get either 1.1m or 1.3m from sky- cap is 1.8m.
Wakey (for example) as a business just doesn't have enough fans to make the extra to spend on wages. |

The new TV deal covers all the cap.
www.totalrl.com/ins-outs-super-l ... w-tv-deal/
Under the terms of the new contract the annual payment to Super League clubs will rise to £1,825,000 per club, which will just about cover the salary cap. |

Not according to Michael Carter - just looked back through his tweets and he's saying we get 1.65m central funding. Higher than I thought, but not all covered tbh.

If you don't bother to go to the game when you live in the locality then you are not really a fan and therefore your views are invalid. It's simple.:icons39ad_files/4821-1859san_c-msnicons.jpg |

Central funding is 1.85mil for all teams, if he chooses to put just 1.65 into the first team then that upto him. Bear in mind there are sponsorships, merchandise and gate receipts and other outside sources to fund the running for the rest of the club. |

With the greatest respect, you'll forgive me if I choose to take Carter at his word, being actually responsible for dealing with the central funding coming into a SL club. He clearly says its only 1.65m that he receives.
Wakey is no longer losing money, so if we were getting 1.85, we'd be spending to cap. |

Sky have stated what they will be giving, if they dont are they not in breach of the contract?...somehow I feel that they would be so stupid. |

Why would Carter say we only get £1.65m on a public forum if it weren't true?
Honestly, I don't know the reasons why but Carter is an honest bloke (almost to a fault) and has nothing to gain by saying that if it's not true.
Like I say, the only thing that would make sense is if the rest is mandated by the RFL to go to specific purposes. |

Maybe some clubs should merge, that may help with financing a competitive team....
