[quote="boardwalkempire7":3lsr450m]Stop living in the past peg. We’ve not had wealthy club owners before We could search for a positive post from you but it would be like looking for kr’s trophy cabinet[/quote:3lsr450m] FWIW money into a club is the tip of the iceberg. There is only circa £2 million to spend on cap and the less desirable clubs ie bottom half have to spend heavy to get their man. Jamie Peacock told me that his time at Leeds no player will be paid in excess of £100k and as they were winning this wasn't an issue to him signing. Jordan Abdull is on significantly more than that now as he was at Rovers. The younger players don't count on cap and your 2 marquee players cost £150k. Where money helps is the excess fees over marquee players. Asiata on £240k means only £150k counts on cap so the money men help with the difference. Attracting players is the hard bit. Rovers attempt to sign Dupree highlights money doesn't talk. He agreed a deal for 4 years at £145k and signed for Wigan for 3 years at £130k due to prospects. Hulls attempt to sign Lee Briers was outrages yet he choses a different club on less money. All figures quoted are known.

[quote="ComeOnYouUll":3ua41o4y]Turns out the third round draw is next Tuesday at 6pm on the BBC iPlayer. Not only before round two takes place but the bad weather means some first round games will also not have happened so it could end up A or B or C or D v Hull FC.[/quote:3ua41o4y] If it's a choice of 4 teams at least we can play a game of, which away team do we wanna go too the most? :D Let's hope this season lasts a little longer than April. Well, we can dream I suppose, or get knocked out in the 3rd round by a lower division club and we can say our season is over by the 9th of February. :P :lol: :DANCE:
