Nice bite!

If you read Gansons Opticians post on page 2 of this thread you will see he/she mentions 1895, so i'm guessing he/she is a union troll? And I'm not sure what you mean by significant evidence, evidence means something slightly more tangible than the hearsay and comments of a student and the tour manager. It may or may not be true but at best its weak unsubstantiated evidence that would get laughed out of court.

Hank Marvin I am

All of us on here agree, I think, that Rugby League is a fantastic sport to watch and (for those who are able) to play. So anything that helps more people avail of the game globally is a good thing. Amazing to hear that there are now four teams up and running in Morocco and that the problems mentioned on here appear to be well on course for resolution.

Pleased to read and helps recall seeing and being amazed by seeing Hussein M 'Barki's debut for Fulham in the inaugural game at Craven Cottage.

That article is from 2012. There are currently no teams 'up and running' because the sport has been banned by the Moroccan government.

Union troll done good

If you say so......

Apologies. I do hope the assistance now being given at EU Parliament level will help those people in Morocco who want to play Rugby League. I wonder if Hussein M'Barki is still around and might be able and willing to give support as an 'elder statesman' of Moroccan Rugby League?

I think Hussein was involved a decade or so ago but there was no money available from the International board to fund the game there.

Hi guys. I have heard some rumours about Moroccan RL. Can you tell my why things are so difficult over there?

"because of RU they blocked us with our governe,ent , so the moroccan misiter of sport told play rl and rl in same federation and this is the last thing we will do it , they are just a stillers pff sorry mate"

Make what you will of that. Just asked the question to Rabathos Rugby League Morocco on Facebook and that is what they replied. It sounds like the sports minister has told them RL has to be administered by their RU and they aren't having it. Give them a follow and show/give them a little support.

Either their government is very very dumb and can't figure out the difference between two sports with a similar name or union is once again showing its true colours and influencing decisions to the detriment of RL. If your Gutters you'll believe a third scenario that it is somehow RL's fault, the rest of the sensible world can see it is far more likely to be Union wkers sabotaging.

I said it was a local spat and that's what it is.......

I bet you think the war in Syria is a 'local spat' too. Kim Jong-Un is threatening to bomb Seoul? Pfft, just a local spat.

Comparing war and war mongering to rugby's code debate.....exaggerate much

I don't think he was comparing them..... exaggerate much!
