A typo, the P being next to the O in OWNED.

So someone did just miss the O one time then! Who was it?! Let me guess, his Freakishness?

lol its been internet terminology for donkeys years. Look it up

Wikipedia it is then

I see it became popular due to the internet gaming geeks then. Fun times.

"Meanwhile, impressive renovations at the Crusaders former Brewery Field home are rapidly bringing the ground up to Super League standards"

They would have to be VERY impressive as, the last time that I was there, in 2008, the ground was about on a par with Whitehaven or Workington's (just examples, no offense to either club)

is it just me that finds this ' statement ' somewhat ridiculous



Yes Bridgend to Newport , not ideal but it has reason to it , possibly if it had been to Swansea , but 156 miles is just plain bloody crazy

The RFL should pull the SL licence , get hold of Kevin Ellis and the owners of Brewery Field , find some central funds and get a club either in SL if there is interested investors or if not re start back in Championship 1 , but based in Bridgend

Pathetic and sums the RFL up for what they are

“Moving home grounds is not against the terms of the Super League licence and isn’t without precedent,” said the spokesman.

What a joke.....if we're not careful, we'll turn the fanchising system into a complete and utter laughing stock.

Celtic Crusaders are looking for a new ground and backer, therefore the RFL let them move anywhere?!!? and they've already had a change of name and so could change it again!!!

so therefore anyone could presumably bid for them, relocate them, and in essence buy a SL franchise!!!! WTF!! whats the point in all the hard work in applying for SL in the first place then?! The RFL what a laughing stock!!

If i was the widnes chairman with a bit of wedge id be seriously up for making a mockery of the whole system!! Why doesnt he buy the CC, relocate them to a smashing purpose built staduim in a place just outside of wales called the Halton staduim, rename them Widnes RLFC.....disabanden the Widnes Vikings, and transfer all their players to Widnes RLFC?!!? Job done!!!

WHAT A JOKE!!! at least if the widnes chair did this it would be a sence of justice done!

if the RFL are going to claim that moving grounds mid licence is acceptable..then we are going to see everyone 'moving ground' for all of 5mins to win a license.

IMO Widnes should play at Wrexham from time to time anyway - have been saying it for 20 years (not non-stop, that would be boring and tiring).

Moving ' grounds ' is not the issue , but moving from 150 miles from the nearest other club to within 40 miles is an issue , the Celtic licence was given to South Wales , that is where they should remain

If the Chairman of Wrexham FC is interested in a RL club , fine , get him down and lets talk about it

Damn, I was really hoping the "I told you so" wasn't going to be needed but the writing has been on the wall with this joke since the beginning. Will the RFL ever learn?

Unlike me to defend a w1g4n fan , but hardly the same 1 game 13 miles away and a scenario that could easily happen to several other clubs , against an 150 mile ' emigration '

Sorry but I think he has hit the nail on the head. A lot of RL fans are almost wetting themselves over this.

I now believe RL will never get anywhere beyond where it is in the UK because really, in all honesty, the fans don't want it to. The excuses about it being 'rushed' don't wash because it was almost exactly the same when they were in the Championship....rumours about them being flown to games anyone? Full of Aussies? (just like they said about Gateshead)

Of course people will maybe say 'look at the Skolars'....and that is all fine and dandy until the Skolars should start actually having any degree of success...then the knives will be out for them. What about Hemel? They are doing things 'the right way' yet I don't notice anyone proposing helping this club forward...because they are happy for them to stay where they are and not threaten the status quo.
It's not simply a case of a club failing, it's the almost audible sighs of relief/glee from some that worry me. Well IMO RL will suffer overall from this because the game will contract, Harlequins can't be far behind after them, and quite possibly end up part time again played by a lucky select few. Who will then complain about lack of media coverage and why does Uniion get all the space. This won't matter really though because ultimately, what is more important is keeping it local.
