4.5%! icon_wink.gif Talking about losing your fan base, if Fax ever went down the DR road it would lose me and two others for good.

Quote: jtfev "As a Fev fan I am not happy about it but understand why the BOD have agreed to it. We employed a coach that put a huge squad together and spent the full cap The club then decided to part company with the coach and have realised the the squad he put together is not good enough Making the decision to let some leave ( not yet confirmed ) the only way we could strengthen was to DR to avoid breaking any rules Although I am against DR I would also not of been happy if my club had burried it's head in the sand and we had allowed things to continue to go wrong on the field. This would of caused the club to lose its fan base that had increased over the last few year and we would of been complaining about the style of rugby we were watching I do hope its a short term fix until next year and details from the club have not been released yet so no one is sure what has been agreed'"

A very sensible approach by your club and well put by you.
A Bit of a silly statement to call it hypocritical, what was right then doesn't make it right now, circumstances have change since the origional decision.
Reading between the lines Wakefield could be without a ground soon and Fev are developing theirs.
Strange that those who ridicule a change of direction are calling for one at our club.
I stress I am against dual reg for Fax and if it should happen then if the circumstances were explained and beneficial then I might become a "hypocrite"
Good luck Fev.

She carries on through it all...... She's a Waterfall:



I despise the DR system. Look at our forum and I think you'll find most of us haven't changed our minds on the subject. But when JB went on his shopping spree he recruited some right poo. The rfl then changed the structure of the comp meaning a top two finish is vital for this season. Given injuries and less than effective players the only manner of getting new players in under the cap is now thru dr. I don't like it. I don't really want it. BUT... needs must. I want us to finish top two this year more than I want us to abstain from dr. Utilitarianism.... reluctantly it makes

Welcome back Robin, that I think was the point I was making,
Circumstances change therefore so do priorities.

So you reckon their lesser players within their squad will be better than your first-picks at Fev ?

Not on your nellie, it's a smokescreen for a club desprerate to stay in SL & another club just as desperate to get into SL by any which way possible.

If Fev don't make 1st or 2nd position it won't be for a lack of trying i'll give them that, but if the boot was on the other foot & it meant Halifax & Bradford Northen/Bulls i'd be waving tattie-byes from the top of a grassy hill while
walking away to a new pastime to replace following professional rugby league.

Fev have enjoyed their greatest times for two or three decades over the most recent four or five seasons, success & competition-wise, i cannot see that improving beyond this season somehow.

I'd like to say "good luck" but "luck" doesn't come into this equation.

Thats the problem that I see for all. We have a new system coming in (again!) and people are busting a gut to allegedly move to the utopian land promised by the RFL. And yet again the goalposts move. I dont trust the RFL and I would not be surprised to see Toulouse come in and take a spot in SL at the expense of somebody like Leigh or fev or for the rules to change 12 months into the new system being in operation.
Fev are bricking it fearing they will miss the top 2 finish. But is it really worth all the hassle that Fev are going through and the potential damage that Dual Reg offers in chasing the utopian dream? The Top 2 are going to be struggling against the dregs of SL anyway as you can bet it wont be a fair system. I can see Fev and Leigh thinking what a waste it was busting a gut to finish in the top 2 in a couple of years. And as Colin points out, Wakey players are strugglin in SL and I cant see them being much better if at all than what Fev have. It just comes across as panic stations

Fev are reacting to Leigh's complete turnaround and that is a recipe for disaster, especially in the knee-jerk manner it's happened. Quite funny how you've got Halifax who seem to be driving along like Miss Daisy and you have Featherstone falling out of the sky like chicken little and in the middle of them both you have Leigh - strutting around in their new suit icon_smile.gif

The key for us at Leigh is to go FT on full cap and build that culture, so when in about 3 years they go to two 10/12's we fit straight in with the French teams coming onboard
What has gone unnoticed is how young our squad is Duffy Spencer Armstrong Kaye acton brierley sarsfield pitman McNally all about 21-23 and Barlow emmitt haggerty Hopkins not much older. The only ovr 30's being Wilkes penky and goulden
We have a cracking young hooker on debut this weekend I believe, who if he plays to his pre season form will make it difficult to drop him imo
Most of that team will be FT and have the years ahead of them to bulk up and get better

Brad Fitler "If the ref's decision decides your game. You haven't done enough prior." Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them. [b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif

Agree pretty much with that BUT - the difficulty is stopping current SL clubs from snapping up your current talent. You've done an excellent job so far fending off Koukash for Brierley after he blatantly tapped him up on twitter and as you say, in this regard it is essential that you offer FT contracts to stop this from happening. Easier said than done though.

The Fev fan's line of defence that they had no option because of circumstances is pathetic, their rivals for the 2nd spot Halifax and Sheffield do not use DR it's all about competitive advantage. Admit it and stop wriggling.
