Can we compete financially? : Mon Jul 09, 2018 9:18 pm
I see wire have signed blake austin on a reported £300k+ a year. saints have barba as a marquee player, wigan have 2 in tomkins and williams, leeds are an undoubted financial powerhouse (although uncle gary seems more intent on spending on the stadium than players but I expect that to change) but can we compete?The lack of our own stadium and the lack of ability for us to generate much non match day and match day income leaves us behind clubs like saints, leeds and wire financially so what do we do? If we're run as a club who need to break even at worst then how do we generate enough to compete for top players or do we just accept we can't? For me, I would love to see a real star of the game in the B&W but I don't want to see the club at risk so unless things change with ownership of the stadium or the club I can't see it happening
