Adam Pearson interview

There is a two page interview with the Hull FC owner in last Monday's Rugby League and League Express that is well worth a read.
He states that the "average wage" at Hull FC is £90,000. There is a lot of speculation on many fans forums, including this one, about how much individual players are paid that it is good to get a real life figure from someone who actually knows the facts. Also explains that there "so many dispensations" and "players that don't appear on the salary cap - though legitimately" Interesting stuff!
As I said it is well worth a read. I particularly enjoyed his take on Rugby Union; "I watched some club rugby union over Christmas and quite frankly it was shocking. I went to watch Leeds Carnegie and had to leave after 50 minutes because I was falling asleep"
