You can absolutely have one as long as you add yourself to the viking masses.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

You're nowhere near the salary cap so you can't be getting much from them. |

I seem to recall it was announced that it started £250k.
With increases year on year after that depending on how
well the team did. But it would seem you know exactly how much
it is if you don't consider it to be large? Admitidly it's only
from a major insurance company and not from our owners
old haulage firm. But it's good enough for Fax. How much is
the Stobart sponsorship for?

but we have done that one to death!

Of course your club has taken the descion not to have more
sponsorship money so your shirt isn't covered in sponsors!!  |

Indeed we have..
Not seen your finances for the last twelve months.. are they good enough to publish??
Do they feature a loss like ours being largely due to £1.8million pounds being invested into the infrastructure of the club to make sure that we will be irresistible for a Sooper Leek licence next time??...
Do they show revenue of close to a £1 million which wont be affected by the aforementioned investment??
Presumably some of any loss you may have will be caused by your world class accredited academy and youth structure that you have in place??

Yes - that's exactly how I feel. All we can do is try to ensure that we are one of the chosen when the real decision for 2012 licenses is made (if it hasn't been made already !). |
