In that case why dont Morrisons and Tesco share staff?

Stop talking out of your backside. Hull City have a team of people that are busy enough to justify a full time salary, what makes you think they would have time to work for Hull or even want to?

And you want Hull FC to play in Hull City's Umbro kit to save costs do you? Or pehaps train with their footballs and just use the Rugby balls for match days to comply with rules?

I would love to hear more about this 'Sports medicine equipment' you think could be shared. Maybe Rovers have a bit of strapping they dont need now their season is over so the Tigers can get some use out of it

Welcome home Ginger Maestro,great news.

What happens if one team (for arguments sake let's say HKR) end up playing championship rugby and forced to employ first team players part time who funds academy coaches etc.

Hull fc, Hull KR and the RFL.

Who did you think would fund it?

Would a SL team be prepared to fund an academy where half the players are by definition only likely to achieve championship standard ?

I would dare to say if either team became a championship side they wouldn't go part time and wouldn't plan on being in the championship for long so 1 or 2 seasons wouldn't alter the long term plan on this project and to think it would is short mindedness
