Yeah thats right, it's just a local spat. You're right and everyone else is wrong, as usual. |

You, me, Purdie and headnutter are the only people on the worlds most popular rl fan site discussing it.....add a half dozen more on moonie express and that's it......it is a local dispute between a misguided union organisation who have been told to back off by the IRB and who have ignored this order and an illegally set up RL body run by an illegal immigrant.
Not sure how you'd describe it as anything other than a local issue really......other than 1 freelance journo, nobody gives a flying one! |

fantastic.....keep up the good work.
Meanwhile, the RLIF have made contact with the correct governing bodies and have started the correct procedures to get RL recognised as an entirely different sport from Union......something they HAD NOT DONE IN THE PAST AND WHICH HAS RESULTED IN THIS FARCE.....Sorry...LOCAL farce! |

I'll repeat my question again.
What did this EVER have anything to do with the UAERU? |

Jim Pooley does seem to enjoy the 'local spat' line doesn't he?
I wonder if he applies that logic to everything he discusses? Unless it's a global issue, it's all just a 'local spat'.
"Isis in Iraq & Syria - local spat mate"
"I'm not bothered about the UK general election, that's a local spat"
"Global Recession, now you're talking my language"

Is that because he doesn't know what analogy means? |

That's because it is a local spat
Quote: Doom&Gloom Merchant "I wonder if he applies that logic to everything he discusses? Unless it's a global issue, it's all just a 'local spat'.'"
We are discussing how one governing body in UAE has taken it upon itself to attack another governing body in the UAE.....not sure how more "local" it could be?
Quote: Doom&Gloom Merchant ""Isis in Iraq & Syria - local spat mate"'"
Actually, no. It's a regional issue with massive consequences globally....good that you brought it up though. Headnutter brought up the holocaust earlier in this thread. www.thenational.ae/sport/rugby/x ... league-cup |
