I have asked people who work at the RL and they had no idea - even if they did do you think they would tell the general public - get real !!!!!

I work in Rugby League, I wasn't just a fan asking, these are people I know very well and work with, it was kept in house. Not sure what point anyone is making, Fax fans on our board are saying it was the right decision. All efforts for you need to be for July, look at what we've done at the ground today and replicate it. If Sky Sports would have gone to the Shay today, they'd have been no one there to talk to.

I dont think anyone on here is saying its the wrong decision either, just saying that it seemed a foregone conclusion for many a month now, even Sky showing that in Boots n All and with todays coverage.

And...

With the powers that be saying that Fax meet all the criteria to be a superleague team it would be interesting to hear what they based their decisions on in the end??? If it was youth development, then THEY are the ones that would not allow others to run a youth team last season, thereby guaranteeing that Widnes were the only ones to make the cut????

Slim chance in July...

Affluent Halifax in the heart of South East England Me thinks NOT. Best wishes etc.........

just a guess, but perhaps after establishing that both teams meet the criteria they picked the one who surpassed the minimin standards to a greater extent?


that is no more true than it was for leigh when some of their fans kicked of about it. when it simply didnt happen.
