Quote: Duckman "Rimmer surely can't be there to announce a league restructure.
It wouldn't be right that the RFL would announce restructuring at one of the affected clubs forums, (even if it would confirm our position as the RFL favs)the only way that would make sense is if its like psychostring says and there is some other official news from the RFL prior to our forum and he's there to react to that. (whatever that is)

My guess is he'll say its as you were for this season regarding the 2018 league structure - with us firmly in League 1, apart from maybe 1 or 2 of the smaller league 1 clubs merging/disappearing.

Other than that he'll be there just to reassure us ahead the 2019 restructure and to answer questions about the last off season debacle. (Which he wont actually answer properly.)'"


The issue I have with this is that if it's "as you were" then £150 for 7 or 8 home games doesn't seem much, if any, kind of saving on just paying at the gate on match days - especially considering that's only the early bird price.
Whereas there were several comments to the affect that there will be 13 home games next season, all be it just unconfirmed speculation at this stage.

Quote: HamsterChops "The only thing I can think of is if Chalmers and/or Lowe knew about the whole situation and deliberately waited until the old club was liquidated before starting a "new" club, instead of just taking over the old one, knowing they would be preferred bidders. Because it benefitted them in not having to take over expensive contracts that would have been protected by TUPE.

Pure speculation, none of that is fact whatsoever. But it's the only way I can think the current club could be successfully sued as part of this.'"


I could be wrong but I heard they put a bid in but it was turned down

Another version of the RR 'moral compass'. Why pay up loyal members of staff when I can just wait 'til the club is liquidated and set the back on cheap.

They did put a bid in but it was turned down by the administrator

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.:



Quote: bullinenemyland "Yes, it followed my first question. His response was that due to the timing being so close to the start of the season it was unfair to ask a Champ 1 club who had geared up to that league being asked to move up. Season tickets had been sold, squads assembled and budgeted etc etc blah blah blah.

Said it wasn't just his and Nigel Wood's decision but was agreed by the rest of the clubs.

This was one of many contradicting statements throughout the night. One minute its the rule book, next when the rule book is not followed its the clubs, then a minute late he's back on the 10,000 page dossier that apparently states how all this is correct and just.

Only problem with his original statement that it was unfair is that from recollection there were several clubs that came out and said they would step up to Championship if asked. Seems they didn't and chose the "dropped a b*llock" option.'"


The 10000 pages is to try to prove (smokescreen) that every decision they made wasn't influenced by the conflict of interest they had due to Odsal. And also to try to cover themselves when they deviated from the rulebook (made stuff up). If it does get in front of a judge though, how many of those pages will mysteriously fall in the shredder?

They really do make it up as they go along.
So all new teams must start in the lowest league, unless you are the Bulls?

I don’t know how he could stand there and say all this. Does he actually believe they followed this mysterious “rule book”?

I’m intrigued to know where in the rules it says that new teams should maybe not start in bottom depending on the whim of the RFL or whether they have a Summer Bash to sell tickets for.
It will be in a hastily written appendix that they will be staining with tea right now to make it look like it’s always been there...

Bunch of clowns.
