The lad’s a degenerate, with his vodka and barmaid-based entertainments. You get all sorts of surprising admissions on the sin bin. One of the Wigan mods provided a short review of Mein Kampf t’other day.

Anyone can type a letter it’s whether you believe it’s official or not. One question, at least arises, where does it say the money from the department-for-digital-culture-media-sport is conditional and requires the league to rationalise? It does not the governing body of the game have spoken about rationalising but that was in terms of RFL and Superleague rejoining as one. The money was given for the game not clubs and its other focus was for the World Cup. The paper does not outline suggested structures.
This reminds me of a friend who received an alleged letter from Humberside Fire Brigade, this was during a particular dry period and hosepipe bans were in place. My friend had an elaborate pond with goldfish waterfall the works. The letter went on to say the fire brigade have the right to use the water in case of a fire. The letter looked official and he was fuming that an authority could do such. You see his anger got in the way of reality and he did not see it as the spoof it was. Still he is a Rovers supporter.

"It's been sent out by a sports consultant putting together possible options for rationalisation of the sport", allegedly. Say no more.

There’s absolutely nothing wrong with chucking ideas about, but neither the thing from twitter or that blog looks very different from the sort of thing you might see on the VT.

Lots of chat about the salary cap being lowered. Clubs will no doubt vote in their own self interest.

The thing is, that we need to try and keep it as attractive as possible to keep the fans coming and to get the best sky deal we can get.
I think reducing the cap would result in reducing the quality and becomes a false economy (a bit like getting a cheap coach can actually cost you quite a lot of money)
