They haven't actually made it clear what the £400k applies to.

Was Smith part of the £400k or did his fee bring us to that figure?
If we we plug £400k they say we can opporate as we are but if we only get £300k does that mean admin or just a lesser quality squad?
Does the squad that they are aiming to end up with, when £400k found include Tuson's wage?

I understand why it isn't possible to make these things clear. It just means we are all guessing when we talk about who is going and staying and what the effect is

I'd imagine the wage bill for Smith, Amor, Wilkes, Mariano would be over £300k. Add the fee on top and we are there.......

but of course that might not be what he meant.

He's dropped into the Championship for next season, as IIRC, he's going to Uni.

That Uni is going to have a good addition to their rugby team!

Gone:- Tim Smith, Frankie Mariarno, Oli Wilks, Ben Cockayne(maybe),Kyle Amore,Danny Cowling.
If anyone in the know can add tranfer fee against each one we can keep a running total (no guessing please).

I am sure I read in the League papers over the course of two weeks that Liam Kay had signed for a Championship side (can't remember which) and that Wildie had also signed elsewhere.

MC said in his press conference that the Smiths transfer fee wasn't part of the 400K.

Going by what he said in that press conference we need the money by mid-late october so its its a cash shortfall and getting the wages off the bill isn't part of the immediate issue. It is though part of cutting the budget for next year so we don't end up here again this time next year.

Kay was linked to Donny. Wildie is a new rumour though, anybody shed any light on that one?

So six players gone and we have recieved £50-maybe £80,000 so far. At this rate we look like having to sell all of the first team.

So, if Benny goes to KR plus the Amor money that’s around £80k, nowhere near where the club has to be.

Even if you add on Kirmond, Collis & Aiton I can’t see the club pulling in £300k from the sale of all of them.

There’s going to be a bit of brinkmanship from the other clubs, especially if they can pick up a player for peanuts if the administrators get involved.

The vultures from Huddersfield & Hull will then come a calling, either way we’ll be left with a similar squad to 2011 & a similar finishing position.

Latest rumbling is Richie Mathers could also be on his way out of the door.

We have lost better- a lot better.

Not what he said on Twitter last week

I'd be surprised if Mathers went. But as said we survive with someone else.
He didn't look like a player on the way out and we won't get a fee for him.

The thing with the £400k is again the difference between owing someone money or being under capitalised.
As I read it, we don't have enough money to play the team we have but reducing wage bill would (I thought) mean we needed less that £400k

That is one for Mr C I'm afraid
