Yet more faces than a octopus Whelan voted to end promotion to and from the Superleague to keep his nose in the trouth yet wants to keep relegation as if his latics drop he gets a massive parachute payment.
His only interst in Rugby was to rob us off central park to force the riversiders to play out of his new stadium.
People like him and his stadium can go and rot isnt it time for one of our more succesful clubs had its own purpose built rugby league ground like Warringtons new ground. Even Salford have a purpose built rugby ground instead of being treated like football supporters with its sterlie atmosphere

If you say so i'll take your word for it. So do you think QPR, Swansea, Sunderland and others are paying 6 times what they were in the Championship? I dont think they are tbh. Besides its different sports, the comparison was silly in the first place, its not just players wages its the fact that Chp RL clubs dont have most of the facilities, technology, academies in place to make the jump up and fight it out the following year.

£55 for a ticket at QPR - well to City fans anyway. Absolutely disgraceful IMO. Its QPR for goodness sake, not Chelski. I'd like to know how much their home fans pay in comparison. Wouldn't be surprised if there wasn't much difference tho.

Facilities , Technology , academies ? , WTF , maybe that's why Warrington train at the LSV half the time , you don't half talk some bollox

It's RL , not rocket surgery

QPR are paying 70k a week to Barton and SWP for starters, Sunderland pay Brown O Shea not a penny less than 50k. Bolton Wanderers spend £40m a year on wages!!

PL wages vs Championship is no comparison,

Leigh are a decent Chp club so we'll leave them out of this one but lets take Featherstone, everyones favourite. The ground doesnt hold 7000, they could not be in SL and possibly run a profitable team. Yes technology, sports science, doctors, the Wire have a professional sports psychiatric personell with dedicated coaches and professionals in different areas, the championship clubs do not. Have you seen the facilities at most SL clubs? Where do someone like Featherstone train? Let me guess 2 sessions a week and then 3 weights sessions in a DW gym

Most Championship clubs do not even provide appropriate sports nutrition to players they have to pay for it themselves. Where is Featherstones U20s, u18s and so on and so forth? They scratch together some teams but if they were the standard required they would play in the Valvoline cup as Widnes did.

The fact is you're an old man who knows very little about the game in the modern era so don't try and do your smokey deflect with me son. Jog on.
