Quote: Ferocious Aardvark "Given the RFL have some shrewd people aboard, I'm struggling to see how on earth they came to the decision that they did.
The Championship is a mean comp, yet here we are, less than 3 fscking weeks from kickoff, maybe some day soon about to start a club, let alone a team, from scratch, no money, minus 12, yet supposed to fulfil a season of fixtures in that comp?
What were they thinking of?'"
I would suggest the whole crux of the conversation came down to...
Ralph: What's the best way to not cock up all our fixtures and actually sell some Bash tickets?
Nige: If Bradford were still in the Championship.
Ralph: Yeah, but your mates at Halifax won't like that, along with any other clubs who won't be getting a half-decent following from Bradford visiting this year.
Nige: Well what about if we deduct them 12 points too? That way they still end up in League 1 eventually, but we don't have to miss supper while we try and rejig everything.
Ralph: You're a genius Big Man.
