You're right and wrong at the same time.

His opinion doesn't matter, nor will it have an impact of the outcome directly,

However,

On National TV he shouldn't be allowed to so abruptly say that and give the impression Halifax have no chance based on nothing (there was no debate ongoing nor has he seen anyone's applications). The fact that Eddie and Phil Clarke said next to nothing in reply leads the RL watching Nation thinking Halifax, a Club who have work endlessly on the bid and have actually passed the criteria, have no chance. Halifax RLFC want to build a positive momentum behind their Club and sh*te like this from a pundit doesn't help in the slightest. Lots of people will believe anything if it's on the TV nowadays and now we have people thinking Halifax are cr@p and worse than some of the Clubs is SL.

He didn't insult the club, that isn't the issue. The problem is he had no reason to express such an opinion on a subject that he has no background information on whilst on national tv. The comments were out of proportion in his insistence and also out of context in regards to the conversation taking place. Even Eddie seemed a bit taken aback by it. Why say it at all? It wasn't needed and imagine the feedback from wakey, cas, widnes fans for example if he said the same about them with no just reason.

He over stepped his line in expressing a clear and actually arrogant opinion. Nobody is dead but that's not the point. It simply wasn't needed to be said

They might not be though, a lot of sport will have armchair fans or part-time enthusiasts. I sometimes watch other Sports programmes and just go off what they say. If I watched an English Hockey show and they said the York Wizards had no chance of a franchise in between highlights I'd just think that.

That's a cr@ply made up scenario, but even in your own sport to your own fans an 'air of fairness and positivity' should been on show and that certainly wasn't.

The thing is being abrupt is just Carney's style and what at times makes him a better pundit then the rest.

He said similar when talking about Quins in SL saying just not good enough with crowds etc... Few moans then.

Did any of the other take him on or just move on past it?

Just moved past it but to be fair they've got to keep to timings, news clips, adverts etc they can't just stop and go 'Hang on, explain further...' and have a 5 minute debate un-scheduled.

I was recently told that a certain person at head quarters advised that:
We would not get rid of developing teams
We would not get rid of the so called big clubs
We would not get rid the only team in manchester
The hull derby is too big to lose
This only leaves castleford and wakefield
they would not get rid of both of them , so swap Wakefield for Widnes and that is that

Only way now to super league is if they increase the numbers
Which means we will stay as we are

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



The thing is , a programme like B n A should not be discussing off field matters , it shows what a load of bollox Licencing is when it is part of the conversation on a show like that

Having said that , you have no chance , as I posted a few weeks back , you are being used to make an elimination contest into an application contest , nothing else

And this.

Some people have really got their knickers in a twist about this havnt they. All he has stated is just about what every clued up fan already knows. To say we have as much chance as anyone else is just naive. You really think we start on a level playing field with someone like Crusaders. Realistically they are the team whos place we will be threatening. Still think we have a chance?

I dont think we have a chance, but its the manner in which he did this which is in question. If there was a debate going on about superleague applications and his opinion was debated by all in the studio it would have been understandable, howeve this was not the case it was talking about Brian Noble and Eddie just threw in the comment "dont forget that Halifax are still in the mix for Superleague come July" and Carney sticks foot well and truly into gob and says "No, No, No they are not, I am ruling them out completely". This took Eddie by surprise, but no further debate was forthcoming.

Carney just made himself look a fool......
