Explain ? '"
Explain why a club looking to get promoted through winning the league has a different aim to a club which is already promoted but is spending a bit of time preparing for promotion? I would have thought that self-evident.
Quote Starbug
And the difference is what ? we would have more money to offer them ? we could afford a transfer fee ? , it would be just the same as having dual reg players , you would only get the players that suited the SL clubs to give you , not the best prospects'"
Why would a club scouting its own youngsters care what the SL clubs wanted to give them? they wouldnt give them anything, they would find them themselves. Im not sure how much more i can simplify that for you. Why you are obsessed with what SL clubs are doing in this context nobody knows.
Quote StarbugSo a yes then'"
Maybe so would indeed indicate a positive response. An agreement with a premise almost. Well done on noticing that. A Gold Star for you.
Quote Starbug
So you havent , and having 2/3 years as opposed to 6 months wouldn't make one iota of difference to getting that support '"
Then you employed incredibly poor sales people. If they cant do better in 2 years than 6 months, they are idiots. Employed by an idiot.
Quote StarbugNegligable at best , and why would you need extra money to do this ? '"
it would of course cost more money to do something, than not to bother. If it was underfunded by incompetent people, and done by incompetent people, then yes the uplift would be negligible, Im starting to see a pattern here. And maybe what went wrong at Leigh
Quote Starbug
No maybe it is you just talking bollox again , about subjects you havent a clue about , many of the clubs IN SL are struggling to achieve any of the things you are suggesting , that is with the money and the profile SL brings
'"
and many of them are very poorly run.
Quote StarbugWe are a sport , that is what people want to watch and be associated with , the higher up that sport you are the more people will be willing to support you '"
yes yes, it all just comes to you, What was i saying about incompetence again???
Quote StarbugCatalans prepared , they sacked their coach on the eve of joining SL and finished bottom , you cannot prepare other than assembling a full time playing and coaching staff , as you have stated many times the gap between SL/full time and the Championship/part time is huge , that is the only preparation worth doing
So your idea is bollox'"
Catalans also prepared by employing lots of good young players, and giving them experience. They also now have fewer overseas players than Hull kingston Australia and have more on field success. They have also achieved more stadium improvements and in pretty much every other way.
Good example for proving my point, thanks Starbug.
