As a Fev fan I think the way that Halifax have been treated is shocking. All I have heard is that Wakefield's application was stronger without expanding. This of course does not effect Featherstone Rovers at this point but I believe that all Championship clubs should be in this fight together.

I don't want to start another thread or go off topic about past troubles between our clubs but it's decisions like today that makes me annoyed that there is friction between our great clubs.

We need to unite against the clowns at the RFL.

A very good post by Faxcar.

Widnes were in the same position 3 years and while many [possibly including me!] shouted for heads to roll, in the cold light of day there was just several years hard work.

The way ahead for Rugby League is certainly a more level playing field with firm criteria and the axe over the heads of SL clubs who produce nice artwork but otherwise nothing.

There should be more of the Sky money for the second tier based on development and attendances, and the number of season tickets purchased.

One day the RFL will see the light and start listening to the fans.

No we didn't, we primised "signifant development" towards a new stadium, which was also the RFL's stipulation. We have delivered on this, having full planning permission passed.

i guess it all looks nicer on paper that a real one to walk in ask hudds they have 2 grounds good enough for super league now.
or am i just saying getting planning permission aint really signifant development when we were turned down on one basis of a stand not fully completed last time
