All about value for money I suppose. We pay one or two of our players approaching a 6-figure salary so its not unheard of us to do so. Although we don't get value for money out of all of them!



Whatever it is something has to change though to raise revenue streams otherwise we will find ourselves either losing money every year until it becomes terminal or keeping cutting the budget until we can no longer compete and lose our superleague status.

I think the revenue streams can't be expanded much more. The ground can only hold so many and the hospitality likewise. The problem is that we have employed backroom staff for no gain. Trinity is a bit like Blackadder Goes Forth. Only trouble is i can't laugh, when the people with the say are making bad decsions and leaving the blokes on the frontline to pick up the pieces.

I would like to think that AG will have a look at his backroom staff and see where he can trim down to give some more coin where it matters.

I do think we need both.



Errors have been made on and off the field, costing the club money.



Maybe with the finance issues, they need a proper finance director who can make decisions within the boardroom to make the decisions that the likes of JE/AG, who don't really have the financial nous.



As for the 6, this is needed, though one that can play 6 or 7. I think Tim Smith has been a shadow of himself from last season. I know his play has been affected by Sykes injuries, but at 27 or 28, should still be able to perform to a good standard. Other top quality players can do this.
