As much as you hate it, least the Wakefield fans such as deeHell give us something to talk about on here. Alright, they may have scared off the other Cas fans with their contributions but, oh well.

No, making stadia requirements the single most important criterion would make the sport a laughing stock. |

The only reason administration has been dropped is because Crusaders went in to it. They don't wanna lose them as they really think it will kick off in farm country. Just like it has in London as we can see from attendances.

Then you just haven't been paying attention. 1 license will be announced in an hour and a half or so for the guaranteed spot for a championship club. Today's unsuccessful clubs will then have their bids assessed alongside the 14 bids from current SL clubs for the 13 remaining spots
No. It was a vote by the clubs to remove the administration. And that was before Crusaders. We'll probably never get the clubs to tell us why they voted* for it but I suspect that a) the financial crash of 2008 and subsequent recession and b) the potential looming problems of HMRC's image rights calims would have been more of a consideration than Crusaders' woes.
* or indeed how they voted, either on the administration rule or the decision to keep SL at 14 clubs for 2012-14, knowing that that would mean one of them going down to the championship. |

| Quote: gingdong "If the RFL are to keep any credibility then both Cas and Wakey should go, both have had letters about the state of there grounds and the RFL have stated that any grounds not ready by 2012 will not be taken into consideration. So however much spin is put on it by dickie Wright the bottom line is GH will not be taken into consideration. Leigh have a superb new stadium, as do Widnes, as for the Shay if the remedials are completed in time for July they have a great facility. They have also stated that the 2 clubs that miss out today will be assessd along with the other super league clubs. If i was a cas fan i would be very worried'"
RL isn't played in the stands

Just a quick question not sure if anyone can answer however......
when the RFL are looking at attendances do they look at the numbers through the gate or the revenue generated by the gate. The reason I ask is that Brian Carney stated on sky that Crusaders had given out 1500 Free Tickets for thier home game and the total attendance was somewhere in the region of 3k (can't remember which game he was refering to ) Therefore does the RFL look at total attendance or paying spectators.
Also on another note people seem to be convinced that Wakey and Cas are in danger however the RFL warned quins last season that they needed to start improving their attendances otherwise this would effect their licence application and their attendances seem to be dropping.

Widnes up. Confirmed that Halifax also meet criteria and will go into the pot alongside the existing SL clubs, so it's 13 from 14 on July 26th.
