| Thought the rules had changed when Quins went in to Administration. For me, any team going into Administration should be forced to drop a league and told to rebuild at a level that requires less money. Why are the RFL not a neutral body? Lewis has little to do with the day to day running of the RFL as he is part time at the FA Premiership and Sport England. The clown Wood is the person for making alot of decisions at SL and the running of the game as he is the CEO.
What pi77es me off is that Wood ignored the fans when he was at Fax. He brought in stupid nicknames, sold Thrum Hall in a cloke and dagger style and upset fans and sponsors. His time as CEO at fax has still left many scars today. I can name probably 20 people including some ex Sponsors, that have never been to watch Fax since Wood upset them. I would say most fans in the championship are angry and have voiced there opinions on various messageboards etc. But as usual Wood ignores the most important asset - The Fans. He was largely responsible in ruining Fax as CEO partly due to ignoring Fans and Sponsors views and he is doing the same at the RFL. The standards in SL each year are dropping- I do not even watch more than a couple of games now as its poor. The game is fragmented. But is Wood and the RFL listening or caring? Are they hell! As long as they push through their dreams they do not care.

i believe that he was 1 of 6 or 7 seven directors at Fax , so he can't be resonsible for every evil to befall Fax over the years

| Crusdaders are not currently a viable business, if they dropped out of superleague would they be able to compete in our league with the budget they'd have to operate on.
I went to watch Rochdale vs South Wales Scorpions in the C1 playoffs, SSC were a decent, workman like side, plenty of hard work, never gave up, just lacked a playmaker, one or two of the players were failry decent and im pretty sure at least one has made the step up to our league with Hunslet.
Not bad for a side who formed late on, never had a pre season and didnt even take part in the Northern Rail Cup, to make the playoffs given the start they had is an achievement in itself, they're been run as a proper club, living within their means, so good luck to them.
I was also in Wrexham the day of the postponed Wales vs Italy match, and their were a fair few people milling around outside the ground after the game had been announced as being postponed, their is an interest there, but its not big enough to maintain the level where crusaders currently are.
Perhaps they should be relegated, and allowed to rebuild, and build a proper fanbase up around Wrexham, if indeed they are able to, didnt really work around Bridgend

| just flicked on to Sky Sports 1 and theres some Rugby Union on, Ospreys vs Leicester in the Anglo Welsh cup, and Brewery Field is packed out, even though it was said there was a lot of anger towards the way Union had been treated in the area when the "Celtic Warriors Region" was forced to merge with the "Neath-Swansea" Ospreys. and that was where they hoped to draw support from

He was the CEO-so basically making sure that the club was well run and looking after the general running of the club. I said he was not to be blamed for everything. But as CEO he did not talk to the fans or care much for them. Sponsors also were not too plesased. And why did he jump ship a couple of weeks before the full scale of how badly in debt we was? I just cant respect him for first jumping ship but also the way he was so arrogant. It was his idea for the name "Blue Sox" for example and ignored everybody else ideas. And as CEO why did he allow the club to get so much in debt? Surely he must have known and could have done something about it? The other directors are to blame as well as Wood though
