On the back of a Stobart wagon

I'm trying to look on the brightest of bright sides here.

If we do end up innocent I say take the authorities for all their worth and get all the compo we can.

Celtic Crusaders 2010 Super League Champions.

Typo.

You're loving this aren't you.

Well done.

Not loving it, but it's hardly a surprise the whole thing's going t*ts up, was doomed from the start tbf.

And if it is not the fault of Celtic Crusaders as a club then how has it gone t1ts up exactly.

How do you know it's not their fault?

A polite warning to all:

read the AUP.

Stop the personal attacks.

Failure to heed this warning may, and will, result in posting privileges being withdrawn.

I said IF.

How do you know it is? If they have falsified information then how do they get through customs and through all the legal tape in the first place. It is not only the club who is at fault here, if indeed they are.

There has been a monumental balls up by authorities too if the worst comes to the worst and we have falsified information.

Either way this all results from the sport trying to ' even out ' playing levels by having clubs playing to different rules

No sport can take itself credible or will be taken itself credible by the national media when it does things like this

Either way it's embarrassing for the game and a joke. Along with the poor crowds, poor performances, being bottom of the league and being in a nation which is known a great deal more for supporting RU and football, I just can't see the long-term sustainability. That doesn't mean I'm enjoying what's happened, just means (like I said earlier) the club's current [ioverall[/i state is not surprising.

The difference seems to be that Les Catalans (who I have admitted in the past being wrong about) were prepared for SL, Celtic clearly were not.

theres no mention of the fines to be imposed yet either, given celtics financial state, a fine of upto 60k payable in 28 days could really hurt them
