Sykes is gonna go, he wont play next year so he'll be looking for a club.

So we either need to bypass the quota (and earning enmity of RFL & other chairmen) by going down the maltese passport route (part of EU) then following the EU rules regarding the free movement of people, goods , services etc

"Workers have the right to move to a different Member State, to look for work and be employed under the same conditions as nationals of that State" for example.

Or - we look at the discrepancies around the dispensations offered to Crusaders players. It seems we may have been discriminated against with the dispensation being announced after we had offered a 1 year contract. Had we known in time I would have thought a 2 yr deal would have been offered.

It seems unfair that some Crusaders players are still off-quota next year whilst Sammut goes back on quota through no fault of the club.

They've probably got other things to think about at the club though at the moment...

Lets hope we are around in SL first!!!

Yeah, I think we should go to court. It worked so well last time...

Like I said it was In My Opinion....and just because I'm not a "gold member" doesn't mean I can't have one!

I couldn't care less what anyone's post count is. You are entitled to an opinion, but I'd say you are pretty much in the minority and if Langley were to leave I reckon you'd see why he is so valuable to this side.

People were saying the same thing last year about Andy Lynch.....we dont seem to be missing him much this year do we?

Think we were doing until Nas was available.

We have been lucky (for a change) that Nas has turned out to be a good signing so far, and not another dud like Hall or Ah Van.

we would be significantly better with lynch in the team this year.

I didnt think we'd miss Lynch and we haven't in the slightest.

Bateman wont be at Bradford next year.

Forgive me, but after this on our where is Gareth Ellis going thread;
3rd March;

and then;
21st March
rlEllis to Hullrl

Could you tell us how/why you're so sure you know where Bateman is going please? Geniune question.

Is his career is almost over I wonder? constantly injured and this is the 3rd season on the trot that he's barely played, can't see him ever getting in the team again. Sad really considering the huge wage he's on! Maybe bulls will cash in on his insurance policy and then tell him he's surplus requirements
