       Getting rid of the Anglo Welsh Cup makes sense. Not sure of the
       same for the 'A' League, which seems a good opportunity for
       squad players to get game time and for coaches to try moves and
       combinations.
       One blessing, there was no mention of Mr E's pet topic - 'ring
       fencing' - as the cure-all for premier club finances.

       M.E. The bloke who relegated Quins to ND1. Nothing to read here!

       Is that really all you think he did for Quins!

       That's a silly response, Tarquin. Evans knows what he's talking
       about. He also admitted the mistakes he made with Quins and
       didn't hide from it.

       Tarquin as CEO Mark Evans was excellent he was trying to coach
       the year we were relegated, but please don’t confuse the two and
       show your ignorance. ME left the club in a very strong place
       despite the incident that won’t be mentioned. COS was not just a
       DOR but pulled the whole Club together and was an inspirational
       appointment.

       Seems a bit odd describing him thus
       "Former Saracens director of rugby Mark Evans"

       Evans is right. Until there’s a greater sense of reality as to
       what can be afforded there is no way that the vast majority of
       clubs will be sustainable. Club Rugby has higher attendances
       than it used to, that’s for sure but nowhere near enough on a
       regular basis to sustain the costs incurred by most clubs.

       I thing David Ellis indicated the last jump in the salary cap
       derailed us from being on target to at least break even.
