Quote ="mattsrhinos1978"You havnt had a Logical thought since you appeared bud. If Leeds decided to sign a player on more money than Hurrell for example, they could choose to nominate that player as marquee instead of Hurrell if they wanted to, Hurrells full salary would then count full against the cap, he wouldnt be forced to take a pay cut, the club would just have to have enough cap space to accomodate it, but thats just common sense and shouldnt need highlighted. Everybodys tried to explain it to you, unsuccessfuly it appears. Its very simple...Your not stuck to the same 2 players as Marquee for every year of there contract, you can designate whoever you want to class as marquee as to how it best benefits your squad, Frosties gave another example with Luke Gales situation with his home grown/ england international cap exemptions.
Like everybodys said...Christopher was right, you were wrong.'"
Spot on. And as others have said, this is only 3 years old so not sure what the 90s have to do with it.
To pick up your point about disharmony in the group, I personally don’t think this has anything to do with the marquee rule. I get the impression Merrin and hurrell are much loved by the squad. And I’d go as far as saying Merrin is currently the most important player in our team.
Put it like this, I don’t think the Toronto players will be moaning about their latest marquee signing.
