My understanding was the Championship clubs got NO money from TV at all - not even when hosting the games. And then Ladbrokes were advertised on the pitch and Leigh got nowt for that neither!

Having read the posts in here, it seems that the rule changes have been half-baked at best.........


Nothing for the championship clubs was my understanding too, and, as yet, I've not seen it contradicted.

Truthfully, I dunno about the changes. All I will say is they were obviously written by a solicitor or a civil servant and they'll get no commendations from the plain English society....

Well several of us on here are one of those two, which might explain the gibberish we write.

Sums it up. Alice through the looking glass, or Rimmer-Less-glasses?

DB of leigh stated in the article that blew the secret squirrel meeting of the aforementioned clubs, that after he presented his budgie plans (sorry budget- not budgies cos they are the only ones that go cheep) and his case for the increase in the salary cap, the administrator of the salary caps phoned him and announced Leigh's salary cap would be £1.3m for 2016 and subject to a bond being logged in the RFLs coffers (presumably of an undetermined amount). So what do we deduce from this little drama???

I suppose if we apply logic: the salarly cap has gone the way of Osbournes tax credit cuts, and it's now a non salary cap, but an upper limit of spending subject to individual clubs 2016 business plan, and projected turnover (which is the same as revenue or income) nett of VAT presumably! And also an undetermined sum that is logged by himself (Mr DB) or other guarantors to the good old ruling body. :WALL:

Are we then to deduce that all clubs in the champ. comp. are to be subject to seperate upper limit spending that can be higher or lower than Leighs providing that this figure does not exceed 50% of projected income-revenue-turnover for the 2016 season?

Phew that's a relief...we could call this game the xmas chase! Although I forgot it's already been won and the Chase is over..not much fun is it!

Statement from chairman at collection as to how cap increase will affect. Reckon it will be along lines of we won't spend more than we can afford.

I'm sure that phrase will be in there somewhere (and quite rightly so) but the fact that they have made a fanfare about it suggests something a bit more tasty. After all, 'I will run the club as a proper business' would hardly be anything new from Marc Green would it?

On the other hand, saying 'Yes we can now spend an extra £300,000' wouldn't be a good idea, as all it will do is pique the interest of greedy agents.

Hopefully its a bait and switch of 'We won't break the bank and risk the future of the club blah blah...... but we have now been able to sign a new scrum half'

Also announcing the 2016 captain and unveiling the home shirt. Should be a good do, looking forward to heading down there.

Be careful what you wish for, one day you may get it!

I think that the message will be along the lines of 'To spend up to the salary cap this XXXX is the number of members we will need'.
