I think it was said that when MC moved to CEO he started to receive a wage - and rightly so.

Could it possibly be his vaccination status. We have 2 games in France, 4 if we are unlucky on the loop fixtures, thats about 14% of games unavailable by choice, nevermind injury. With him being an anti masker, it is also possible he is anti vaccination.

I don't remember any problem with him over Covid rules.
He had to follow the rules to be able to play last year so I doubt very much whether that's an issue at all.

Come on do you really believe the bilge you have just spouted.
Not taking a salary, or if so one that amounts to nothing.
House still on the line, after how many years.
Its all getting a bit sickening this skint bregade spew.

Not sure who you are having a go at.
Are you thinking the club has money or Carter?

Yes actually because I know.

He does not take a salary but then he's not a poor man, he admits that.

He's not a rich man either.

He did have his house on the line, whether he still does I don't know.

Earth to Lampyboy, we are skint, the game is skint, or are you blind and deaf, to suggest otherwise is utter blige, give your head a shake.

His Dad was an anti-vaxer and did seem to suggest his son was also one, however, his dad, who is a nice bloke in real life can sometimes go a bit off-road at times, so I've no idea if Ryan is or isn't one.

I wouldn't rule out your theory but on the assumption he stays in super league he would still have the same problem surely?

I've no idea either way but Mopesy posted something a bit back about not believing young people needed it or should have it, which caused a bit of a stit as he usually does and I think people may have added 2+2.

Agree the games in a sad state but I get absolutely vexed with every post on just how skint we are without any factual evidence.
The club in my view do nothing to rectify the situation employing they are happy with the situation.
So what's huge and what's not.
What's a poor man and what's not.

How do you mean they are doing nothing to rectify it?

We are on the brink of getting half of the ground rebuilt, something that will hopefully revolutionise the club's earning potential but there are only two of them, how much time do you think that alone takes?

Ditto the team, it's not finished yet, MC states that, so again how much time do you think that takes?

The above two trump all else, you must agree?

It's those two factors that will determine our financial futures, everything else is window dressing, see our previous owner for where that gets you.

As for the loss in SKY revenues, how on earth do you expect us or anyone else to cover that in the short term, if anything MC is being honest and is ahead of the inevitable curve.

The money simply isn't what it was a few seasons ago and it wasn't much then, it's an obvious fact.

Please please tell us what we can do to plug a 400k shortfall, whilst still funding a team, a new money-making 4G pitch, paying off the floodlights and the Cats bar roof repairs, and re-paying the BV mortgage?

Why are you getting vexed, its reality, to get vexed is a bit king Canute to me.

I hope not, he’s a lorry driver.

I've has covid in January lost my sense of taste and smell but felt well apart from pain in my hips and knees. My 2nd vaccination was 21st of June so I'm due a booster soon. I think most of the squad tested positive for covid so have the antibodies in them. Remember the vaccinations are to protect yourself and its your responsibility if you want it or not. Hope this helps
