Once again Beaumont has run his mouth without the full facts. For some stupid reason each SL team put £80k in a fund at the beginning of the year and got 15k back every time they were on TV. Don't know why they did it that way, but they did. So Championship clubs aren't getting the same because they didn't contribute.
If anyone can explain the logic of this please let me know (use diagrams if necessary). Why put money in a pot just to get it back later on?
Beaumont is right to be cheesed off. Surely there should be some money due to clubs hosting televised matches - whether it's from the pot of cash the RFL are alleging is made up from a SL kitty or elsewhere.
