salary cap

[Jilly43]

just seen this bit of information on http://www.rfl.uk.com/Templates/RFLDefa ... &CompName=

Acording to this site Stains, Hull and Halifax have all breached the salary cap and will be deducted 2 points with immediate effect.

well thats halifax down then

and i guess hulls chances of the grand final have been damaged.

Saints out of the top 6 now and theyve got all the top 6 finishers last year for there next five matches. On this form they could be joinming halifax down there!!!

Apparently Stains stay in the 6 on points difference from the Wire, but it's a close thing. I read also that Tommy Martyn has been dropped for next year due to financial restrictions (suggesting they may be over the limit this year as well?), but PLEASE don't anyone suggest we sign him to be our future stand-off. I'd rather kill myself than ever cheer for him. He's apparently really unhappy about the decision, boo hoo poor Tommy. What a shame - NOT.

More importantly than the irrelevant folk over Billinge Lump, we're now just 1 point behind Hull on the verge of a top-3 placing - who would have expected that about 6 weeks ago?!

I dont think anyone on here would want us to sign Martyn now but i have to say i do feel for him. If it was 3 or 4 years ago i would have snapped him up but not now too old and probobaly too expensive for what he has to offer, although we may not like the team he plays for i appreciate what he has done for R.L. and his loyalty to his club to be honest i think its a disgrace that he doesnt get a testimonial year but im sure something will be sorted for such a servant to rugby leage.

[pie eater and proud of it]

My god if we were to sign Martyn then I would be joining Fraggle on immediate suicide watch. Not only is he one of the most heinous cheats in RL history, he is also a useless, past it, has been!

oh brilliant.... saints deducted 2 points!! LOL
brilliant!

would love to know how leeds & bradfors are working there books to keep there salary caps under.??

LOL

[MrsLam]

Yeah I was gonna say. How have leeds and bradford managed to hide their books.
Great news about saints and hull, feel a bit sorry for halifax but oh well someones got to go down!
I really hope their appeals arent succesful though, 1 point behind hull :):) WOO

What wonderful news about the scum! I would have loved to have seem Millward's face when he heard the news. It is made all the sweeter by the fact that Millward was crying about us being able to afford Furner!

Tough luck Scum - come on the Wire!

As for Bratfot and Leeds - the only reason that nothing is done to them is because of Caisley and Hetherington. The is not a chance that they are both under the salary cap.

GF here we come!!!!!!!
