One thing is for certain, Stutter or Cringebin wouldn't be doing any better.'"  religion and politics you should take them to the sin bin |

As for Catalan, you are desperate for them to be evicted
With only 2 clubs over there of any ilk and with the game on both sides of the channel needing some kind of boost, perhaps, now is the time to be brave and expand to 14 clubs.
Why not Include, Toulouse, London and one other from, Leigh, Fev and Widnes (still too soon for Bradford I'm afraid) and see if the sport get some kind of boost, lets face it, the game needs something after the Toronto debacle.'"
No it's not about me  , no need to attack the questioner (there's a team of very poor anglers trying to do this already  ) just attack the question ....
I would heartily agree that if Catalans and Toulouse could find a significant TV deal then let's go for the 14. I think it's wrong to have the two French clubs not in the same league. If they can attract a TV deal then put both in Superleague going to 14 so that IS French expansion but not at the expense of the contraction of the English game to accommodate it. That's what I am against not that they are Gallic!!
But if no TV deal put them both in the Championship. They have to be playing each other to really get things going surely...??. |

Because the Rugby League fans on here actually follow the game and read this stuff up. The others just read Angling Times |

Oh, we read, and we listen and we UNDERSTAND, we aren't stuck with a cloth cap and the Hovis theme tune ringing in our ears.
Grow up, you should be a lot wiser at your age.

always interesting when the resident idiots have nothing to add, other than accusing people of being trolls, old usernames etc.
It must be a sad and lonely life, but we can all laugh and point at you for your absurdity.
(I know there are some long words in there, so you may need someone to explain them Walter.)

| Quote: Cokey "I just don't understand why folk keep saying such a team should go up because of...............To cherry pick any team is a no no. If there is not a comp/playoff in the championship this season, then SL will just have to go ahead with 11 teams next season.'"
Well cherry picking happened before when we had licensing and what the RFL/SL felt were strategically important clubs were given a lot of leeway and allowed in Superlague especially the Celtic Crusaders. Harlequins were persevered with despite struggling. Established clubs did complain. Halifax were not happy.
It happened in 1996 when they didn't just use the top 12 clubs, with Featherstone and Salford being elbowed aside for London and Paris. They were not happy. Keighley and Batley didn't get the promotion they expected. they were not happy. So I appreciate your purist stance but it's more a business than a sport and they must IMHO go for the 12 by choosing someone just like above, and if others are unhappy tough. If it turns out to be a wrong choice tough.
For me running with 11 clubs and creating a terribly unbalanced fixture list will allow the phoney baloney TWP 's antics to just go on making things a mockery long after they have gone and we just don't need that reminder week after week of that terrible mistake. Out of those that have offered to fill in one must offer more than the rest even if was just via a collective opinion of a selection group. |

The ignore button is actually working for me now, what isn't good is the bright yellow notification that he has made a reply and do I want to see it?
Well of course I don't want to see the notification let alone the reply!! You may consider he feeds off your replies, but up to you mate....

I have had a post removed (unjustified), and the bile being spewed out on some of the threads, and also derailing them which have been untouched is unbelievable.  |
