This isn't a sleeping giant, it's a giant! Denis Betts Nov 2010 Twitter: @JoeyViking:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_45011.jpg



Deducted 3 points for a salary cap breach, what a stain on the great game and our stronghold of a championship I say!

The get a relegation reprieve then break cap rules too reach the top?

I for one am disgusted!

Never mind these ' rumours ' , have you managed to work out how you have 15 teams playing 29 league games each yet ? icon_wink.gif

Yep crap innit , unlike your good selves we cant manage a million a year profit icon_wink.gif , and with this years problems I wouldn't be suprised if the same thing happens again next season

The only solution right now would be to release all our players , but oops we cant , they have contracts based on figures supplied to the RFL , just like last year

Well, if you didn't cheat and spend money on players that you can't afford, you might get somewhere near. Leigh were well aware what the cap limit was before they signed many of these players. There's no excuse.

a050.gif if you read what has actually happened, we haven't gone over the cap limit, we didn't meet expected/prejected revenue and as such breached the cap that way. We haven't gone out and purposfully spent over the cap like Wig@n a few years ago

Its the 50 % issue again , at the start of the season you supply the RFL with projected income , they check them to see if they are realistic and either say yes or no , bloody annoying that it takes basically 8/9 months to become a problem

But hey ho , all good fun , will this blacken our copybook for box ticking now , maybe the RFL can come out and tell us either way ?

Obviously it will! It stopped Wigan getting an 'A' grade last time if I recall correctly.

I was under the impression that all Championship clubs were allowed to spend £300k, unless they had previously been able to show a £1 Million turnover, whereby they'd be able to spend up to £400k?

How much had Leigh spent to?

I didn't know that there was even a 50% rule in place. I thought they'd scrapped that years ago in favour of a live cap system?

Dearie me. No wonder they are doing so well in the league. They've spent over what they should have.

So the team moaning about the licensing system most of all in recent months have in a short space of time almost gone under and have breached the salary cap to boot. Still, they're almost top of the league don't you know. (still haven't won anything though!)
