Quote: Hudd-Shay "I really couldn't have put it any better than this, you have got it spot on. What is happening in Rugby League right now is astounding, and it's beyond belief that the member clubs are letting a certain few dictate to the many. How Halifax as a club react to this latest attack on the so called lesser clubs will decide whether I continue to support the professional game. We can only wait and see what this week brings. Up The Fax, from an increasingly dissolusioned, long time supporter.'"
One problem is for the likes of Fax to object to anything is, what can they actually do about it.
The last chance for any meaningful say went out of the window when the clubs voted for the new format earlier this year.
In context it was to do away with playoff's, one up one down etc but it was also really about power as many people at all levels of the game stated.
SL bullied and threatened everyone they could in different ways, for the RFL it was "we don't really need you and if push comes to shove we'll break away and form our own governing bodied", for the minnows it was as mentioned before, "vote against us and your dead".
