Assuming that Wakey are the favourite to get the bullet, if they are relegated because of their stadium then they have to relegate Cas as well. If they are relegated because of having been in administration then they have to relegate Crusaders. Oh, but hang on, didn't they drop that rule the week before Crusaders entered administration?

It would not surprise me one bit if the RFL took the easy option and relegated nobody, raising SL to 15 teams. Yes, I know that they have already voted to stay with 14 but it could be just another case of Lewis holding the proverbial Glock to the temples of the member clubs.

The RFL must be the most unprofessional (and incompetent) sporting body on the planet. They continue to dig ever deeper holes for themselves.

i think we'll be joining all the super league teams apart from the two that go down

I LIKE YOUR OPTIMISM.

Glass half full....

I don't know. The managment of the Cambodian Midget Fighting league dont do too good a job, although the RFL run them close.

I hate this fat Barsteward. He helped make a mess of our club and now is doing the same to the sport

Riley I think you'll find.

Well i for one think we will replace Cas, they do not meet minimum criterea yet we do. Licences in today, Not a brick laid and postponed till beginning of 2013 before they are in which mean they do not qualify. Lewis seemed a little on quiet side to be honest but i really do feel that Cas must be replaced as they do not have the stadia therfore do not meet the same criterea as we do.

Wakey and Cas local derby in the Championship, £300k salary cap, How do you like those eggs !!.

Cas? How about Crusaders and Harlequins first. Average attendances? Rent-a-stadium and administration.

I genuinely think we've got a good chance in July.

Today was 'Widnes day' with the hype and media focus on them being hot favourites etc and the fact they probably didn't want to leave themselves open to the uproar that they weren't let it for 4 month until July.

The RFL could easily have gone down the 'Widnes are the strongest of the 3, they're in' route, but didn't. They dismissed Barrow completely and took time to publically say Halifax had passed the criteria in a short statement.

If we can be in the top 3 come July, and furthermore, if we get 7,500+ and run Bradford close in the Cup I think that would be massive, in fact, if we dared to beat them, the media hype around Halifax would really set us up going into the July decisions.

I've not got a problem with Cas, Wakey or anyone, but I'd certainly be feeling a bit un-eased with some of the 'incomplete' boxes they're going to have to hand in in 5 days time.

It's not over yet.
