I’d argue increased ticket revenue… not having to breaking even to open the Aviva would ease some pressure.. bar takings being their own and a fan desire to get back to their own ground should fill it just about every game week next season.
Clear shift in squad size though
Lowe is another high-cost player off Leinster's budget: a cut of €2.4m at least. Incoming are 3 academy players, plus rumoured Carbery and Dooley returns to the fold. Paying an extra 10% of national contract players salaries, smaller senior squad, coupled with a move back to RDS and reducing ticket revenues will shift @leinsterrugby further away from the high-spending French clubs.
This is the wildest World Cup story yet. If someone in Toronto sells a ticket above face value they get fined $25,000 yet the city of Toronto bought 3,500 World Cup tickets early and then sold them to taxpayers at a markup as a “revenue generation strategy.” What the hell man.
Liverpool FC can confirm Arne Slot is to depart his role as head coach with immediate effect and that the process to appoint a successor is under way.
He leaves with a Premier League title to his name and our deepest gratitude and appreciation.
Leinster are a basket case being masked by a lot of talent in the playing group. Squad depth next season could be exposed massively, coaching set up has not maximised the resources at its disposal.
Same issue with Vodafone.l this week. 3.5 years I was with them and they offered me a phone for 410€… walked into 3 and they gave me the same phone and price plan for €3….
🏉 Leinster’s disastrous cycle of final defeats is leaving deep wounds
Cullen may not want to admit it, but fifth straight loss in European rugby's showpiece match asks serious questions about his ability to get more from his team

Defensive coach leaking 41 in a European final, head coach not knowing his best 10, best 10 fucking off to another province, current 10 nowhere near European final standard. Easiest run to a final in years, totally outclassed and outplayed in just about every facet of the game.
Leo Cullen needs to resign.
Biggest budget in Europe. Keeps his mates on the coaching staff.
Stacked to the high heavens with internationals.
Noel Mc was told to move onto the Sharks when he was better than most involved in Leinster.
A fucking shambles.
HEADS. MUST. ROLL.
LeoNaber has been a failure.
They need to go.
McBryde has been stealing a living for years. He needs to go.
Sob and Bleyendaal need to go.
Castore needs to go.
Simply not good enough.
Bordeaux have been lethal but Keenan drops a kick off, Byrne kicks a ball dead (and laughs), a breakdown turnover is spilled (leading to a try), a bouncing ball from a kick isn't dealt with (another try), an intercept (another try) & a bad drop in the 22
Too many mistakes
Maguire and his whole family speaking out against an England manager.
I assume @OllieHolt22@Ian_Ladyman_DM and all the rest will be out to hammer him now.
Mohamed Salah is lambasted for not speaking enough, then when he does, is slammed for not doing it at the time and in the manner his critics demand.
He is not a performing monkey. He has given absolutely everything he could to the game - and for just shy of a decade, to Liverpool.
Why is his love for the club always questioned? Why can’t he speak as a fan of Liverpool, which he is?
Salah FC or Misperception FC?
