It does seem strange to be cutting staff at the same time as saying you can make the jump to SL in 5 years

But then you take a step back and think Super League? In five years? Through sustainable growth? And the concept all of a sudden seems to be conflicting with itself. I'd love to see it happen but I can't see it coming to fruition in 5 years. Maybe 8 though.

Not a chance in hell , not saying what he has put isn't true , but he is missing the fundamental point that the sport cannot finance the business ' Lapsed ' fans are lost fans , they are gone , the world has changed , their expectations have not changed Collaberation between clubs is the only answer , but do your owners have the foresight to see that ?

That was all done before the start of SL.
In those days P/R was still in place so the dream could be achieved.

Its not the same now. There are so many things to be done to get us into SL.

There are so many things to be done to get you into a viable self sustaining Championship club
