Just a thought re. Turnover figures.....



I've not seen the financial reports, but wonder whether they show payments to the administrator of the Old Co. for legacy debts?



I'm sure that the RFL pay this directly to the administrator out of Salford's central funding and thus I wonder if any of it (funding in and legacy debt payments out) is recorded in the New Co's accounts?

The Salford Scene (John Gilbert Reds on here, I believe) is suggesting on twitter that we could potentially face a 20 point reduction.

If Salford have a case or cases to answer, it could be one or a combination of sanctions, varying from a slap on the wrist to heavy competition points deductions and suspensions for players and club officials. There are a lot of mitigating factors though (7.12). Quote SUPER LEAGUE SALARY CAP REGULATIONS E. Investigations/Case to Answer 7.9 … Where an Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal determines that a Salary Cap Offence has been committed, it shall be entitled to impose any one or more of the following sanctions that it deems appropriate, having regard to all of the circumstances of the case: (a) a caution, reprimand and/or warning as to future conduct; (b) a fine; (c) in the case of a Club, the deduction of up to 20 Competition points; (d) in the case of a Club, the imposition of a restriction on the Club’s ability to register any new Players; (e) in the case of a Club, the making of a recommendation to the RFL’s Board to withdraw the Club’s right to participate in the Super League competition or any other competition or event authorised, convened or organised by the RFL; and/or (f) in the case of Players or other Persons subject to the Operational Rules, suspension from involvement in the game of rugby league. 7.10 For the avoidance of doubt, the Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal will have no jurisdiction to adjust, reverse or amend any of a Club’s individual Match results in the Super League competition or other competitions authorised, convened or organised by the RFL. 7.11 Having determined that a Salary Cap Offence has been committed, prior to determining the applicable sanction(s), the Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal will identify all relevant factors that it deems to aggravate the nature of the Salary Cap Offence. Aggravating factors may include the following: (a) an absence or lack or remorse and/or contrition; (b) whether the Party has been found guilty of any Salary Cap Offence(s) in previous Salary Cap Years or under predecessor regulations; (c) the relative degree of fault, including in particular whether there had been any deliberate misrepresentation and/or intention to cheat; (d) whether the Salary Cap Offence substantially damaged or had the potential to substantially damage the competitive balance of the Super League competition or any other Competition; (e) whether the welfare and interests of a Player has been endangered; (f) whether the HSCR had provided the party with a warning as to future conduct; and/or (g) any other aggravating factor(s) that the Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal considers relevant and appropriate. 7.12 Having determined that a Salary Cap Offence has been committed and taken into account any aggravating factors in accordance with Clause 7.11, the Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal will then identify all relevant factors that it deems to mitigate the nature of the Salary Cap Offence. Mitigating factors may include the following: (a) the presence and timing of an admission of guilt; (b) no prior Salary Cap Offences; (c) full cooperation with the Compliance Team; (d) minimal impact of the Salary Cap Offence upon the competitive balance of the Super League competition; (e) the relative degree of fault (e.g. where the Salary Cap Offence was unavoidable, accidental or inadvertent); and/or (f) any other mitigating factor(s) that the Off Field Operational Rules Tribunal or considers relevant and appropriate.
