I suspect if it went to a vote and leeds and wakey and the championship clubs sided with the rfl,then the rfl would win.

Ohhhh, that's a shame Nat, he invited us to sue him. I wonder if he'll provide us with his name & address & contact details so we know who to send the letters to ?

It seems that one of Lenegan's allies may have changed his mind: www.loverugbyleague.com/news_135 ... cture.html That means that 2 of the big boys , Leeds and St. Helens, are now backing the RFL.

Interesting reading, He seems to think they have been consulted along the way. all the way, However Leneghan says they havent been consulted at all.

I think the restructure will hobble through this battle for the greater good of the game afterall. The sooner i know the sooner i will part with cash for season tickets.

The full statement: www.saintsrlfc.com/news/page/3451 the part I particularly like is: "It is also a great and opportune time to have a newly appointed RFL and Super League Chairman in Brian Barwick, whose highest level background in media and in professional sport can assist rugby league greatly in its strategic direction and commercial strengthening. He deserves our full and unqualified backing as we seek to strengthen for the benefit of all." That sounds like he backs the RFL 100% and certainly does not suggest the "lack of confidence" suggested by Mr. Lenegan. Methinks, perhaps, he overstated his level of support.

Good to see you have posted on the Wigan forum mate and beat me too it. I have been on there myself over the last week or so and tried to get our point across whilst being carefull not to let it get to a slagging match and I think I managed it. It will be interesting to see how they react, I do admire the way Wigan play but not some of the arrogance.

Brilliant debate with Daveo on the wigan board pal,how you kept your cool or didnt just walk away is amazing.If i owned a flatcap i would doff it to you sir.

That is exactly one of the points made in this weeks Rl press that through all of this there has been consultation and if IL or Wigan had any objections then they should have raised them behind closed doors at the Council meeting and sorted it in house without going public like this especially just before the World cup is due to start.

For a fact the RL press stated that IL and Wigan never go to these meetings, others do such as Hetherington but not Wigan, if they can't be bothered to go then make your own minds up as to what they think of the rest of the game.
As regards just SL meetings the same is asked, has IL attended or if not who did he send and what did they report back??????

Likewise if they are such brilliant buisness men who can bring in a boat load of cash to the game how come they are not doing it for there own clubs????

Even if they could and they were the ones to do it would they want to share it with some of the other clubs who have been unable to bring anything in or manage themselves responsibly????

You could go on forever with it, I'll just be glad when we know what we are doing no doubt like the rest of RL at the moment.

I thought, for a moment, that that was a new statement but it is the original one that was made over a week ago following the cancellation of the EGM.

That's me always one week behind.
