I have stuck to the facts.

Actually you mugs brought Wakefield into the conversation first on page 1. I didn't started commenting until page 2.
Quote: Willzay "Plus the access to POR is worse than Belle Vue or Wheldon Road.'"
Quote: Willzay "never had a problem but then the attendance wasn't great'"
Quote: Willzay "At Belle Vue?'"
Quote: Willzay "if you like'"
Another poster then mentioned about people not wanting Fev fans anywhere near Superleague. I merely suggested they don't have anymore incidents than other clubs in the area. Cue massive offence from the Belle Vue snowflakes and the pile on.
One comment congratulating Featherstone was even removed by a Superleague club supporting moderator.
Good job derailing another thread - clearly RLfans is only interested in discussion of superleague.

| Maccbull_BigBullyBooaza wrote- using money borrowed from tax payers. These aren’t made up anti Wakefield abuse merely facts.
Quote: happyjack "Please explain to me in simple terms just exactly how it works where the club have benefited from paying twice the value of the ground, and also apart from the council lending the club money how does it affect the taxpayers if the club are paying it back with interest, with no land available to buy and build another stadium surely it's Wakefield that has been abused by the previous owner's exploitation of the situation, and should Wakefield be found guilty by association simply by a one off transaction with a man who previously on the face of it had no connections with crime.
As an ex Wakey fan who jumped ship and was blinded by the success of the bulls, it's easy to see that your bitterness towards the club still runs as deep as ever, back on topic Bradford has had it's day and it's ridiculous to include them as a club more likely to be sustainable in the near future, you seriously need to get over it.'" kind of shot himself in the foot there, didn't realise he came from bradford

| Think Widnes are getting there. Easy opposition yesterday but first game in over a year.
Think 10 of the 17 on show yesterday came through the academy. Year after year bringing the youth through and providing talent for rugby league.
No flush with money, but will get decent crowds in this league and in superleague. Effectively purchased by a consortium of fans and have been run brilliantly since without spending beyond their means. Strong squad this season and fancy our chances if our injury list stays limited.
Always liked watching us play Toulouse. Always a good amount of French players in their 17 and I think as a club are really developing well.
Sustainable for me it looking at your clubs survival and existence beyond a sugar daddy bailing you out. Toronto not sustainable. No plan B and rushed through. Yet you need to keep expectations grounded as these are after all championship clubs your breaking down. Crowds/academy/facilities and infrastructure I’d put
Widnes/Toulouse/Bradford above the rest
But that’s just my opinion

| It makes me laugh when you all talk about Featherstone having a hooligan element! It's literally 5 grown men and 2 chavvy runts giving it the big un. I remember Hull KR going to P.O.R and a hand full of chavs pretending to be Lazio ultras. They soon ran home in record time.

My top 4 in the championship in any order would be
Toulouse
Fev
York
Fax/Widnes
The Bulls may sneak in there.
My top 2 fighting for promotion is Toulouse and Fev.

That’s not the way my mate sees it. He’s a fev fan and he recalls the KR fans causing trouble and when the fev fans retaliated the hull fans called the police?

Did I read it correctly a while back that you were scrapping your academy - crying shame if that’s the case

Looks about right to there Cokey.
Fev, Toulouse and York, battling for GF spots.
Should be a cracking season.

I make that six
But I'm pleased to not see Leigh in the list, they deserved promotion after Mr. B worked so hard and put in so much cash despite the setbacks...........

Hypocritical as usual. You praise Beaumont for his commitment to Leigh but Guasch does the same and you want to kick him and his club out.
No need to reply because you never engage in any meaningful discussion except to wind people up.

I doubt Bradford will be anywhere near. Ben Evans is a good addition and we have some big hitters out injured that will hopefully come back but I doubt we'll trouble the top two or three.
Toulouse might not end up being able to compete in the competition thanks to covid. Even if we get to the end and the only games binned off are home games against part time clubs the pressure is really on them to keep the win percentage up as they'll have played less games than anyone else. Less games to level out the drop in percentage from losses & draws and a greater proportion of away games than anyone else.
I reckon Featherstone are some distance in front of everyone else but we'll see.

| I honestly cant see Braford being anywhere near the top 4 this time, Fev & Toulouse will fight it out for the top 2, York will be in amongst it, Widnes will be a tough beat on their home ground so I expect them to be up there aswell. London although weaker for me are always a tough game on their patch. Fax look weaker than recent seasons too. I'm going :-
Featherstone
Toulouse
York
Widnes
London
Bradford
Sheffield
Halifax
Batley
Newcastle
Swinton
Dewsbury
Haven
Oldham
