Its the 50 % issue again , at the start of the season you supply the RFL with projected income , they check them to see if they are realistic and either say yes or no , bloody annoying that it takes basically 8/9 months to become a problem
But hey ho , all good fun , will this blacken our copybook for box ticking now , maybe the RFL can come out and tell us either way ?
Obviously it will! It stopped Wigan getting an 'A' grade last time if I recall correctly.
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back! Oooh-to… Oooh-to-be… Oooh-to-be-a… WOOLY!

HTH
I was under the impression that all Championship clubs were allowed to spend £300k, unless they had previously been able to show a £1 Million turnover, whereby they'd be able to spend up to £400k?
How much had Leigh spent to?
I didn't know that there was even a 50% rule in place. I thought they'd scrapped that years ago in favour of a live cap system?

Dearie me. No wonder they are doing so well in the league. They've spent over what they should have.
So the team moaning about the licensing system most of all in recent months have in a short space of time almost gone under and have breached the salary cap to boot. Still, they're almost top of the league don't you know. (still haven't won anything though!)

Did you spend more on players then you were allowed too?
Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

I wish you'd learn to use the quote button properly.
I'll ask you again. Is there definitely a 50% rule still in place or not?
If so: How can such thing be based on future expected/projected revenue when it, as far as I know, has always been based upon what was achieved in the previous financial year?

I thought it was too , but I had heard 40% of previous seasons turnover , with an extra 10% if you can satisfy the rfl , re fundin
So, basically, it's still Leigh's own fault, because they gambled that they would be able to make up the extra 10% and, I would assume, submitted some sort of documentary evidence to the RFL, and fell short.
That still boarders very much on cheating, imo. It is a ridiculous way to run a sport too. The RFL really need to change that rule. Unscrupulous clubs can clearly gamble on this, and put the more honest clubs at a major disadvantage.
No wonder Leigh are not contesting it.
