They will have the money for those leaving, and as far as I know no one signed on the Marquee rule yet,

You still need £150k cap space to sign an overseas marquee player.

I was far more offended by Harry's allegation of cyberbullying. If educating folk on etymology is bullying, we're in a bad way.☹

If everyone used the correct etymology, there'd be no local accents.

Yes I know Bob, but if the vibes are true that Dr Koukash is getting on board we can pay much more than the reduced fees that count towards the cap, as I said we have one overseas space at the moment if MacDonald goes we will have two, but the marquee(s) doesn't have to be overseas player's.

One of Arundel or Worthington leaving would make sense with the emergence of Ben Tibbs and with Arundel already having a contract for next season it could very well be true. Im a big Worthington fan and I would struggle to pick a better defensive centre in the Championship to be honest but Tibbs probably suits the way that Grix has the team playing better.

Keighley putting together a strong team for next year. 

Um.... Ellis Robson played for the Dewsbury Rams last season. Not sure that's a great signing.

Nope £150K is the value that goes on the Cap Register, a club can give the player whatever he wants or are prepared to give them, to my knowledge the biggest ever was Money Bill Williams who reportedly got a million from Toronto

Heard we had signed 4 marquees capped at £150k each but costing £2m a season

Probably remain at Barrow, not many SL clubs will be willing to buy out 2 yrs remain contract on top of a new package when they have their own youth coming through.

As in the coach that’s had a hand in recruitment and player retention moving forward? Yeah, him.

He's probably got SL clause that would mean Barrow get diddly squat.

Yep, he confirmed that saints are in advanced talks with a winger to replace Grace and that it definately wasn't Ritson.

[Mumby Magic]

Not much ont Bulls front. Spoke to a former fax director about Lilley to Fax and he hadn't heard the rumour.

Might be a possibility that ritson is happy at the raiders and not interested in a move.
