Smoke screen?
I know this is not connected but last season RA (wash my mouth out) vehemently denied we were either talking to or signing Westerman in the HDM.
I broke the news of us having signed Westerman on here. |

GROW UP FFS.
When you don't like something you read and can't respond in an adult way...Just don't bother.
Again, from another reliable sourcebar staff find out on Friay wether they have jobs or not.
KR going into receivership.....Anyone else hearing the same?'"
Genuine question, why would they have jobs during the close season anyway? Surely it's all casual/seasonal work during the playing season, what else goes on at Craven park? |

| Would it not be sensible that if ur the 'Grudge' and having gone wailing to your supporters that the financial losses are un-acceptible, ticket sales are suspended and big bad agents unsettle players and your going to stop being a feeder club to Hull FC  that:
1. Trying to merge would be a viable option for you
2. Try to sell the club
and IF that fails
3. go into administration
What you don't do is clearly advertise your going into ADMINISTRATION.  |

Private events / functions.
Why would KR start to cancel these events when they would clearly bring in profits? |

Serious question, do you honestly believe that our two clubs are going to merge?

I was more meaning, why would they have set in stone jobs to lose? Surely agency/casual workers would be the way to go? |

Merging is not a viable option for enough parties, though. Long term, the fan base would possibly be roughly the combined following of the 2 clubs now, but in order to get there they'd first have to survive roughly a generation of low gates with die hard fans walking away. There's not enough money in RL for anyone to pull that off. It is too big a gamble for both clubs to simultaneously take, no matter how many times people bring it up.
