It wouldn't surprise me to know that part-time Championship players would be on a contract of less than £10k + win /lose payments per game played.

As for full-time players, weren't SL teams only allowed to have so many on a contract of over £20k - or have things changed in more recent seasons?

Alan it's obvious none of us are privy to what players earn either part time or full time,but we can be realistic to earn 20 k a season it's only around 400 pound a week,I can't see many full time players accepting this ,I've been told what some Wigan players are earning and it's a fair few quid more than 20k ,I would think the top earners at Leigh are on more than that too.Whatever the part time players are on I don't know,why has this debate been started though?Maybe it's because of fans speculating why Rangi has t signed yet ,myself I would like to see Rangi play for us next season but I don't think it will happen unless a few of the current contracted players decide to leave.
I do think next year will be a make or break season which worries me I just hope the fans have faith in Derek and support him with their feet through the turnstiles at the LSV Derek has put a big investment into the Club I hope we as Fans can show we appreciate what he is doing .

Ste to average 5000 next season will be a very big achievement by the Club, I hope you are right ,it's not that long ago we were getting gates of 2000 and less for the lower end fixtures,that's why I as hoping we would sign Rangi to boost gates , at the moment I'm not sure we can average 5000 a game , again I hope you are right .

Is it not a "second job" for the majority, holding a full time job elsewhere - with rugby being a part time role and in theory not many hours per week?

7k or less doesn't sound unreasonable to me

Spot on Col. Part time clubs with crowds of 600 couldn't afford to pay much more

Why are you Leighers still bleating about players wages and contracts?It doesn't matter now Rangi is NOT coming you can't afford him that is a fact,whatever the Tripster says about your average gates rising.Be real you are a Championship Club just like Oldham and Whitehaven,and Batley ,trouble is fans like the Tripster gave convinced you to ideas above your station.Then you have fans like Atomic who bleat for the sake of bleating,BAA.

Are you just looking for a fight with anyone now? Most of us aren't even arguing or disagreeing with you. You don't have to troll every post on here, it gets a bit tedious

Last year was the year of expectation, and we flopped when it mattered - would imagine that would turn people away rather than expect a 25% increase on top of what we had already achieved.

On top of which people now know that most home games will not be overly competitive.
To stay with last years average will be a good result I'm my eyes - possibly why I am not an ambitious business man

Rangi has received Training gear, make of that what you wish
