Quote: mean_machine "Same track as Salford? We are about to buy our own ground, average just short of 8k and had the lowest % of dropped attendance post covid in SL. Adding facilities at one end of the ground to generate income and provide a full match day experience. All whilst not spending cap.
Bastion left because of travel from Leeds, where he lives, to join Leeds. No great conspiracy. Ben cockayne left the club about 3 months ago. Keep up old chap.
Commercially we are a million miles away from Salford.
Investing in youth means giving opportunity to players like abdull, litten, Lewis, Ethan Ryan, matty storton, Lewis Johnson,
Will Dagger and having them as a backbone of your team for a generation similar to what Leeds did.
One day you may see a 6/7/9 from Wakefield represent your club and move forward. But for now, leave it to the entertainers!'"
HKR do spend to the cap - mostly on pension building Aussies. Lewis the only home grown player in your team.
Yes, way better numbers than Salford.
Abdull & Litten from HFC. Ryan & Storton from Bradford. Johnson & Dagger from Wire.
I thought HKR gave clubs like mine hope in the modern era when you got to the Wembley final - then you lost by a record margin.
We all live in hope I guess, but HKR do not represent the path to RL enlightenment.
