Well it's not perfect that is for sure but I doubt Leeds will be involved in challenging it. It was Hethrington at Leeds who was the chief architect of the current flat rate cap and was instrumental in having it set at 1.8 million quid when smaller clubs wanted it at 1.3 million.davewarrior posted:

No whats wrong with it is that teams who are just about finacially viable can compete with teams who bring in more into the game.davewarrior posted:

Why should we be on the same level playing field as the Vikings.
We have bigger Attendances
We have bigger Revenue from Merchandise
Why should we pay the same as them on wages each year. That does not happen in any other sport in Europe. If its ok in your mind than how come the Broncos can bring in more foreigners than any one else. The cap is bent for some but for the clubs who still keep the game alive they get punished.
And by the way because of the cap and 20/20 ruling we could be relegated come September.

To be honest it want go that far. Any threat of legal action will see it dropped. Everyone knows its illegal and the governing body i do not think could afford to go further than the Lords here once ot goed to Europe then its going to cost millions more than likely.mike binder posted:the eoropean law will say it is an illegal systemmike binder posted:thegimble posted: No whats wrong with it is that teams who are just about finacially viable can compete with teams who bring in more into the game.not only about sport its a buisnes thing how mant competing companies are restricted to how they can pay there staff just think the way things are going the european courts will kick it out as an illegal system
