IMO when pass sales are down next year and revenue is effected they will start to do something about it - hope I am wrong and it happens sooner

JR and KH will not let that happen though !!! They will make sure that there is one solitary marquee signing just to give the fans something to put on their new shirts and to get them renewing their passes !!!

They're not daft you know !!

But a lot of fans are !!!

When we lose a point for the top eight average finish next year, do we lose our grade A license ???

No.

So 8/10 will still be grade "A"

As I said on previous post, last year doesn't count, the franchise is from this year.
Salford and Celtic only started this season for 3 years, this year isn't quite half way through and you are assuming that we will not be in the top 8. There's still a long way to go and a lot can happen to ANY team. I don't think the summing up of licences is due till the middle of 2011 season, if we do lose a point and drop to 'B' licence we still are gauranteed a further 6 years in SL.
Thats a long time for you to take the anti-depressants, and who knows we may STILL have a grade 'A' licence, and that will be a pill too difficult for you to swallow.

But 1.7m in debt and you need more than just a good SH

well said...last year we broke the £1million barrier for merchandise alone so i dont see how we could be in debt...no doubt we have not quashed all debts but this season should see them all a thing of the past. to come from massive debts to where we are now is a credit to the staff, players and directors of FC but i do feel there are a few weak links and our signing policy needs to be seriously looked at as we are slowly becoming a joke in the world of rugby league and famous for signing people before we have actually got them here and fit

The licenses are announced in 18 months time so you work it out bright spark !!! And as for the anti-depressant remark, I'm more pi$$ed off than depressed because I can see us finishing outside the top 8 and that's all we deserve but you just carry on talking like a first class pr1k !!!

Oh the irony

really ????

Thought i was bad at calling people but 9/10 of your posts do.........real keyboardwarrior arent we.

I think you need to read them again !! You have obviously not paid enough attention while reading them. I would say more like 1/100 actually, if that.

When I ask a genuine question about licenses, I don't expect someone taking the pi$$ or getting clever for no reason, that's all.
