No really Saddened. Please give us an answer. Tell us what was wrong with our period in Super League, given that P&R were in place and some teams HAD to be relegated. Come on, give us a laugh icon_surprised.gifops:

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



Quote: belgianxiii "TrueTrue

This is the biggest problem that any French club is going to have trying to establish itself at the top level of RL in SL

Any quality players produced by Catalans or even Toulouse are going to be poached by the French RU clubs with big money offers

Very difficult situation

icon_eek.gif Which RL Clubs arn't in financial problems, Widnes went bust a few years ago, points deductions at Rochdale Keighley and Gateshead, Whitehaven a whisker away from a CVA, Salford had to have an emergency loan this year off the local council, Wakey and Cas haven't got the money between them to build a garden shed nevermind a new stadium, Blackpool couldn't pay the players wages last month and had to get bailed out by a director, in fact there's a tiny minority of clubs that just about break even. The only club that constantly lives within it's means is London Skolars that's why they are last every year!

Quote: spooneryork "

what you say is reality and some people dont want to here it.
its a lot easier to walk around with your head up your arris shouting nothing is wrong with RL everything is wonderful.
debts are good,non payments are good,all sports have them.
these people live in cuckoo land.
how good it must be to follow a club with 10thou+ gates every week and 1.2 million season off sky

George Bush says 'we are losing the war on drugs'. Well you know what that implies? There's a war going on, and people on drugs are winning it! Well what does that tell you about drugs? Some smart, creative motherfookers on that side.":23517.gif

Not what I understand. Nearly 3 years from planning permission and nothing. Even your own chairman made comments a few months ago about downgrading because of money problems. Not bad to say he was claiming in 2006 that completion would be Oct 2008! One word...SKINT!!!!! eusa_think.gif
