Still wondering if tb is going to provide any evidence to back up this assertion ...

I'm not holding my breath.
I'll have you know he is a stickler for proof. Well...except when it involves him. In which case, he will repeat whatever he likes ad nauseum without giving any whatsoever.

I did love it when because it was starting to look like Crusaders were about to be largely unpunished for administration he claimed that Widnes were not necessarily knocked back from super league for ours, despite repeating that was the reason we were for the past two years and offering no alternative reason.

I have a link on my laptop from the RFL website stating the why's and why not's for the last round of licenses. It clearly stated the reason Widnes were not successful - even stating that where the club tried to dis-associate itself from the past in regards to it's finances it could then not draw upon the past for it's positives. Basically - going into administration blocked their entry.

Going into administration twice in two years should therefore block an entry with bells on.

[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg



An absolute bl*ody disgrace, the RFL are a chuffing joke.

Widnes in 2012, Wakey or Cas out, Toulouse in 2015 closed shop after. Rest of clubs left to wither and die or become feeder clubs, if the RFL have their way.

That is a very interesting statement.
Can you prove it at all in anyway?
A link perhaps?
A picture of a newpaper clipping?
Anything?

disgraceful

the RFL should just ignore the fact that international RL needs to be strengthened, or that crusaders add value to the Sky TV deal and instead listen to a bunch of chapionship fans on rlfans.

Nope. Can't be bothered explaining it all again to a knuckledragging flat earther like yourself, but take it from me, the only people turned over by London something or other were the inland revenue......at their own request! No other creditors got turned over and unless you have documented proof, I would recommend you steer away from imaginary hand outs icon_cool.gif

Still....if it ain't on the M62 it ain't right if some on here are to be believed d040.gif

Quote: BigRob "It doesn't matter what facts or evidence you bring to the table tb, the RFL hate Widnes and that's that. Simple as. FACT. End of. No really.
The RFL have given Crusaders & Harlequins millions and given "proper" teams nothing.
The RFL are idiots who don't know how to run the game. The increase in participation, attendances and finances are all down to the hard work from clubs like Leigh, Wakefield, Widnes and Barrow and have nothing at all to do with those idiots at Red Hall.

It's obvious really, the answer is to let BARLA take control of the RFL and let them run it. After all they've done such a good job at the magnificent, superb, salt-of-the-earth, fantastic grass-roots level. As evidenced by the hordes of quality English players currently playing the game.'"

its another bitter blow to the heartland clubs that are fighting tooth and nail to stay in the top flight and those that are doing likewise in the championship trying to better themselves.

im all for expansion and making it work but would the same be done for lets say a wakefield if they were in the same financial trouble.

for those that dont think this has an effect on other clubs think again another team will lose their place in super league come june and it wont of been done by using a level playing field has crusaders,quins and catalans wont even be in the mix up and are a shoe in for a franchise spot when 2 of the 3 clearly have failed to meet the rfl`s criteria set three years ago for maintaining a franchise.

you couldnt make it up the rfl are a joke who make the rules up has they go along to fit their agenda. icon_evil.gif
