I refuse to put cash into ring-fenced pot
I WISH I could give the various boards trying to quash our second tier a piece of my mind.
It was a well presented argument and badly needed from Nick Johnston, Coventry DoR, in TRP on Jan 17.
I will turn my back on the Premiership if they are allowed to ringfence in the end. I would rather put my money in a pot to encourage home-grown talent tha n a pot that pays the salaries of southern hemisphere players at self-interested Premiership clubs.
Also how can it be acceptable that the Woman’s Premiership teams are taking precedence over Championship and even National One tier teams?
Don’t get me wrong, it’s great that woman are given the opportunity to compete at this level, but where is the overall perspective by the governing bodies? It is sadly lacking on a massive scale.
