Quote: Prince Buster "

Clubs other than Salford have already started to feel the financial pinch of reduced funding.'"


Salford aren't experiencing the pinch of reduced funding. They are feeling the impending swoop of the Grim Reaper from spending money they have never had.

It's not something that's "happening" to them, it's something they have created.

They aren't victims.

With regards to more players I think we may a couple more lined up and then keep looking for any other right ones. Powell did say in one of his interviews that with season not starting until mid March it gives them a bit more time

Quote: imwakefieldtillidie "London have just released a kit without a sponsor. Anyone know why? Seems a bit strange when part of the IMG criteria is to increase sponsorship.'"


IMG have made their opinion of London pretty clear, hence London not over committing this season- they know where they are in 2025 hence why they have kept a good number of part timers

Are there some similarities with Everton and the demoted clubs (Leeds, Leicester etc)? I know it's not a salary cap issue, but if Salford would have paid the rent etc then maybe they would have had a far less able team and this gave them a false advantage at avoiding any chance of relegation? Don't get me wrong, I'm very much looking forward to a year in the championship etc but technically it hasn't been a truly level playing field has it?

More like similarities with Bradford Bulls IMO...they stuck their head in the sand and didn't pay their bills either and look what happened there icon_rolleyes.gif

The RFL had said that the 1895 cup would begin 27/28 January. Is this not correct ?

Quote: imwakefieldtillidie "London have just released a kit without a sponsor. Anyone know why? Seems a bit strange when part of the IMG criteria is to increase sponsorship.'"

London and Toulouse both played the entire regular season in the Championship without a main jersey sponsor (for instance as you can see here at the Summer Bash).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aMVjn41dwkc

I mentioned this a couple of times on forums but nobody seemed especially interested, I thought it was quite a significant story. They both belatedly got a main jersey sponsor for the play-offs.

London in particular have been a basket case off the field for quite a few years now. They've alienated a huge chunk of what wasn't a particulalrly large fan base as a result.
