It's obvious that West Wales are totally out of their depth both on and off the field, they are so far off the pace that they are almost bringing the game into disrepute and I don't really see how they can ever catch up in their current guise (but I hope they can). Not that it has anything to do with Whitehaven.

What a surprise that within the first 4 posts, 2 Leigh fans have turned the thread into an anti expansion thread. They are getting absolutely tireseome now these Leigh fans. Every thread is turned into an anti France or anti canadian thread by the same posters

Bit disingenuous to say York have crowds over 4,000 and Newcastle have four figure crowds when both of these were achieved against the only big crowd puller in the division (Bulls)

Yorks and Newcastles were both boosted by the fact that Yorks was the first match of the season and Newcastles was the night before Magic weekend.

Every teams biggest fixture in that division this year is that match and Whitehaven haven't had theirs yet.

On a side note that this thread turned into I'm all for expansion and think what is happening in Canada is revolutionary but also find it really sad when a heartland club is struggling.

They must really be out of their depth off the field - perhaps you should inform Wigan Warriors.

The following is what it has to do with Whitehaven - They are in the same league.Therefore they are scheduled to play against one another - despite West Wales Raiders being totally out of their depth;in your opinion.( We'll ignore size of squads &,injuries.)

West Wales Raiders will be hosting Whitehaven,at Llanelli,later this month.

I have not noticed,anywhere,that West Wales Raiders will not reach the end of this campaign without any financial assistance at fairly short notice.

Perhaps a club,not named West Wales Raiders,is actually out of their depth.

The problems obviously those Canadians coming over here stealing our jobs.

(Or is that Leigh’s/Whitehaven League1/Championship/Super League places)

Why doesn’t Marwan take them over and re-brand them the Cumbria Lakers?

Where did you send it to?
Cant find a just giving page
Thanks

West Wales recently had the all-time record scoreline against them, are conceding around 80 points per match, have shown up to away games with less than 17 players and had to cancel their home opener an hour before kick-off because they didn't have the correct medical supplies. Don't pretend things are ok there, even an insolvent, insular and miserable Whitehaven is way ahead of them at the moment.

West Wales might be having a tough time at the moment but I bet they have more home grown players than a lot of “heartland” clubs.

How many years of trying was it until Queensland beat New South Wales?

Stop the hate towards the expansion clubs, RL family.

Three sentences that seem pretty irrelevant to the discussion, but also don't have much connection with each other?

Check out the Fax squad. Several local boys that have come through the reserves into the first team.

Btw, we don't "hate" the expansion clubs... we just want to beat them.
