It is not so long ago that we had to be bailed out by a couple of very important people to the club and I do not want to see us having to try to do it again. I read not all that long ago that there were 5 clubs at risk at the start of the last season and 3 of the 5 have now gone and we were number 4 in that list (before anyone asks - NO - I don't have the link). We don't HAVE to spend up to the cap unless we can afford it but I do trust AP to keep us in check.
I wonder now what the situation is with Watson???? I believe that he was looking at 2 clubs, LI and Sarries and now LI have gone and Sarries have now retained Maitland I wonder if he really will be staying with us at a salary we can afford
You make some excellent points trendylfj. I think all we can do is hope those in charge aren't over-spending.
I am more concerned what we'll do to make up for fewer home games which must place a big hit on overall income. Don't know how much we generate for a home game, but it will have dropped by 25% without 3 teams visiting MWWR for 2023-24.
