No neither Crusaders or Fax were awarded a grade C licence

We do need investigative journalism.
Cru have been going down the pan almost from the day they started.
This was never covered.
Their predecessors at Celtic in Bridgend were the same. That was not covered!

Next scandal will be the court case v HMRC which if the RL clubs lose they could be looking to find £ms in payment to the Revenue for overclaiming on ebt's image rights etc.
Who gave the advice to clubs to claim all this? What tax advice did the clubs themselves seek?
This should have been gone into by the RL journos but hardly a word has been written.

With 'phone hacking or not?

My take on journo's fawing to the establishment is really about their failure to quiz the games sacred cows i) the need / wisdon and practicality of geographical expansion of super league ii) the value of licencing and the competence of the games higher ups to operate the licence system.

These are the issues that do the rounds in the pubs and on the forums but where do they feature in the work of the RL media? The first one in particular is conspicuous by its absence in the critical rhetoric (sport the irony there) of RL journos. Ignore the issues that I think are important and need questioning and consider this;

Name me a journalist who rocks the establishments boat?

Perhaps they feel they have got better things to do than peddling myths put around by pub bores?

And which myth are you referring to?
