Unless they are paid as full time professionals (and therefore will be used for community development work, marketing or given jobs in the shop to shift most of their wage from the cap into a different area) then why would they be paid a SL salary for playing in the Championship?

Most Championship players worth bothering with have a basic of between 5k and 15k a year plus bonus. You can do it if you stick to a plan

How odd. Rovers are slated for undervaluing Makali (aided and abetted by the evil agent Stanley Gene) yet Hull FC were unwilling to offer him a deal competitive with a Championship club.

Have you not seen the size of the community team at Halifax?

Hull, for example, may have offered 30k a year.
Halifax, just for example, may have offered 15k basic, 18k for community work (paid by sport England or other such grants) and £350 a win 150 a draw £50 a bonus point.

Hull would of offered a reasonable amount for a full time player who would be 4th choice prop if you ask me, just that Championship clubs can bring in one or two (about 8 in Fax's case) SL standard players and use other legal methods to pay them.

No it cant , more scrutinised

We got done when Andy Last played a game, they took the full amount of both his playing and coaching salaries into account, although rules have slighlty changed now

I remember the Last situation but didnt realise they took his coaching salary into account. Seems harsh when he was genuinly doing the job.
I would have thought that the League would be better off encouraging clubs to put players into Development positions, on a part-time basis going into schools etc.
Its got to be better for the game than some of the other alleged examples of clubs getting around the Salary Cap.
On a different topic, does anybody know How Dobbos girlfriend is getting on working in the Rovers club shop?
