So there are no links to our 'financial problems' but yours are public knowledge ??? Bit funny that if we are both 'in the same boat'
Glass houses ??? We have never been in admin or spent what we can't afford at the expense of the club where as Wakefield have done and look like doing it again. tbh I feel this is down to a culture at Wakefield of 'let's finish above Cas at any expense' that's hurting your club.

Didn't your then CEO Steve Ferres publicly claim the the club was in a precarious position before launching its member ship. Your money problems are well documented from that meeting.
Yes we went in admin, so have Bradford and London in recent years whats your point? we were punished accordingly (although circumstances worked favorably in the end) We are at present a loss making club and so is the majority of SL including Cas Tigers. By going on what the respective clubs big wigs say, Wakefield have a lower playing buget than Cas. I'll bet we consistently have spent less than Cas on our wages over the last few years although I suspect the difference is small. We were never busting the bank to win Challenge Cups and SL titles like Bradford. We always spent enough to survive and Ted was underwriting the losses until he went bust and took some his share back out of the club at the worst possible time. I think your a bit short sighted in your view of us a club to suggest we have a "lets finish above Cas at any expense" mentality.
