did you see the squad that London started the season with?

| London were rumoured to be spending close to the full cap, especially in view of the higher salaries that are necessary down there (cost of living and all that)
Salford may well have been paying a lower cap at the start of the season but, I would think that we weren't far behind.
The mid season signings still remain a mystery.
WHY, if we were losing money, did we sign 2 new players (Tautai and Molloy).
Regardless of their respective ability and cost, why would a club do this ????

Also why hand out contract extensions which we clearly could not afford to honour unless we were running with a squad of 13

They actually spent over the cap as they get a 15% dispensation for being in "dat dare Lundun" to allow them to spend above the cap so that wages are effectively equal with those "oop norf" due to the cost of living ![Thumbs up icon_thumb.gif](images/smilies//icon_thumb.gif)

Its the contract extensions that may well get us out of this mess.
The contract extension for Danny Kirmond will be a god send if he does have to go, otherwise it would be a 50k job like Amor.
From what i can see/guess the transfer fees seem to be somewhere around the value of the remainder of the said players contract.
Out of contract or in some cases 1 year to run and they are worth zip to us

I suppose it depends on the salary of the player under contract as to whether it is a "good deal" - ie the contract of Mellars may be considered to be a liability rather than have value.

Even if he's getting 10k per annum, it's 10k that we didn't have and shouldn't have spent.
Although it's with the benefit of hindsight, it's just plain daft (unless it was part of some master plan as we knew that every other senior player would be sold ?)

A vanishingly small amount; I reckon it was a deal with Agar where he would play & train himself fit, in the hope of winning a proper contract for next season.
He's not the cause of our financial woes, that's for sure.
