I have followed the LONDON CLUB since I was in my teensl even though born in St Helens and still live nearby and went to the first game at Fulham, also Big West Ham Supporter:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_1649.jpg



Quote: Albion "I would love to see Koukash respond to that. In fact, I would love to see anyone try to argue against any of that.'"


One small point I would argue with is "I'm delighted to say Super League goes from strength to strength" I'm not totally convinced, attendance figures are a concern at many clubs, it's like the tired statement of "The Greatest Game" which many people tend to believe unquestioned.

I wonder how much it is with McManus truthfully getting closer to Big Nigel? There must not be many sports were one man has such control over a sport, and his background is not that rosey! I agree with Koukash, that it is time Super League controlled it's own destiny, with a CEO of it's own, and no representative on the board from The RFL, I tend to feel Soley is only a voice for Wood.

You can have someone who has the money like Koukash, and does not need to go to Hong Kong for money, or perhaps a Chairman like David Hughes at London, who has spent more personal money than any other into Rugby League, but has made some bad choices and been too loyal to some staff?

Success is not final; failure is not fatal: it is the courage to continue that counts. (Winston Churchill):d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_40218.jpg

Didn't the clubs used to run the league and it brought little but discent, chaos and virtual bankruptcy?

Heaven help us if they ran the league again. The chairmen can't agree on relatively unimportant matters. Who knows what would happen when more significant items are discussed.

And I'm not sure David Hughes has spent more than other chairmen. We will never know how much any of the chairmen have ploughed into their respective clubs.

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif

That is true, in fact SL asked the RFL to step in.

But that is all forgotten and everything is the RFL's fault....

"Arguably the best Rugby League side certainly in the last 40 years!" Phil Clarke.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_13707.jpg



Quote: SaintsFan "He quite clearly didn't. In fact, he stated quite clearly that he [iwasn't[/i having a dig at Leeds. He was having a dig at the sport's HQ being in a farmer's field.

Jeez but these Yarkshire lot are an over sensitive bunch.'"


Calm Down, Calm Down! We all had a big meeting and elected Les Norton as spokesperson for the county. Really.
I agree with McManus though.
