Are the club going out of their way to depress us this week?! so basically despite having one of the biggest revenues in the league we aren't going to even try and sign a big name to help bring crowds back and help us get out of mid-table obscurity?

Although we have decent attendances, we pay through the nose to use the KC when you factor in additional revenue we don't get from not owning the stadium. warrington made £600k profit last season on smaller crowds than us. Once saints get over their initial period in their new home they'll start making good profits. leeds are in a class of their own and hudds and wigan pay a relative pittance to play in their rented stadia. Despite what the mad egyptian claims, playing at the KC under the current agreemnet holds us back as a club

He never said that.

What did he say then? I'm only going off what the other poster posted.

I'd assume he means we won't pay over-inflated wages for 1 player just because theres a new rule saying we can.

He said we won't be paying anyone £200,000 a year. He never said we won't try to sign a big name, in fact the club has said we ARE trying to sign at least one high profile player.

If we can get Pritchard without having to use the Marquee allowance Radford, Motu & Pearson deserve a pat on the back.

Who's paying for the marquee signing? It's not a bottomless pit, you know.

The man who promised us top4 rugby and trophies and still hasn't delivered perhaps...you know that guy who's keeping himself busy at Leeds United these days.

Clearly not. He's made some poor decisions and needs to balance the books.
