Eight off-contract players set to leave Hull KR'"
Got to agree, it does.nt make great reading. That said, all clubs with the odd exception will find finances tight for the foreseeable future, and they either cut their cloth accordingly or potentially go bust. I,m happy with the ones retained but would have liked to keep at least a couple more, but what we have left seems to me, to leave us very light(again) in the pack, which has been a regular problem for us for too long at that,s a big concern. Maybe it,s part of the master plan to go with a "mobile" pack again, but that has never worked for us, or maybe other options will join us or be in the pipeline, but I am fed up with being in the bottom four and it grates that teams such as Salford seem to be thriving with a tiny support base, but the have a very wealthy owner which helps big time.
As it stands it looks like we will only have 22-23 players unless others arrive, or one or two not yet offered contracts are taken on. Worrying times for players and clubs, but lets hope the clubs take the right course.
As for FC, I could be wrong but I thought they had lots of players on contracts that they could not offload and will have therefore to be paid, unless another club takes them, which in this climate seems unlikely, and bearing in mind what AP has intimated previously, I don,t think FC are in a great position either, in fact they could be worse if they are committed to wages that they cannot offload...who knows. What will be will be, lets just hope we have both clubs surviving and prospering in the foreseeable future, but Rovers to prosper more, obviously!
