Quote ="Blue tack"Just a quick link to another post:
To put into perspective what North America thinks of sport - the Blue Jays signed Bautista on a 5 year deal for 65 million dollars, circa 11 million dollars a year. £7 million pounds. our cap is £1.825 million FOR A TEAM. They laugh at our cap but believe our sport is brilliant. Another Canadian team, then New York, then Chicago etc etc. In 5 years the North American league will be asking Wigan, Leeds, Saints to join their league. At this time, the fact that Swinton, Halifax and Bradford founded the league will mean very little.'"
[i"....the North American league will be asking Wigan, Leeds, Saints to join their league"[/i Not a chance they will, as your figures on comparative salaries demonstrates only too well. How on earth do you expect 3 UK teams will raise £100+ million each for a competitive squad?
