Our Alleged £400k Shortfall in Salary Cap. : Mon Apr 21, 2014 6:13 pm  
As the only club outside Bradford not to supposedly spent up to the cap, is it all now too apparent?

I'm not going to resurrect the older threads of we need a quality prop and we need a halfback cos nobody likes a smart booty, but wouldn't the shortfall would go some way to filling at least one of these positions?

The best way to predict the future is to create it...

My theory, because we have a play off system and a season long of medicroty doesn't rule you out of becoming champions. We are able to spend a big part of the season seeing which of the youngsters can cut it at SL level and which can't, then later in the season strengthen where applicable. Of course the club couldn't say that publicly as it would affect ticket sales.

To be honest, unless we really start to drift into trouble at the wrong end of the table, I can't see us bring anyone in purely because it would be seen as an admission of failure or a mistake in judegment on behalf of the management. Even if quality players were available, I sense a certain stubborness from some people would prevent recruitment.

Given the reluctance to even drop players who are selling us short, I can't see the club sanctioning mid-season recruitment to directly replace said players.

Where has your information come from that we are £400k under the cap?

Is it from somewhere reliable or is it that someone on a forum said he spoke to someone in the know and said we are £400k under the cap?

Our board has shown in the past it has a liking for blue chip signings so if someone good was available no doubt we would have gone for him. More than likely we are looking at who will be available in 2015 or 2016. But there is no point just spending money for the sake of it.

Remember last off season, there were players available...
Rangi Chase
Gareth Hock
Scott Moore

the verdict on here was "we don't want him" and probably the verdict from our board was the same....

Question is, who is available or who could we realistically sign???

I don't see the point of signing someone just for the sake of it. If we have to have a season or 2 of mediocrity in order to re-build long term then so be it.

I've no doubt Smith and Moran are looking at who's available not just next season but also the season after.

But which teams on a matchday, who have beaten us ,have actually turned up with any better team on paper than us ? None of this year's teams are made up of spectacular players but they seem to have better structures in place in both attack & defence than us & are also able to play as teams on the pitch.

It's been fun.

Who alleged it?

Even if it was true then who would we get?
You can't get a top Antip for 400k.
No decent player at another club is going to be released
Any clubs with a bit of money won't sell their talents.
All the broke clubs have been asset stripped.

Daft.
