.................and i'd hazard a guess that it would unlock more BskyB money. It's a long road.

Who cares how many kids theyre producing? Nobody turned out to watch Crusaders in S Wales other than the away fans who made the trip down there. The media was pretty indifferent towards them and they couldnt find the commercial sponsorship and facilities they needed. Just a few of the many reason why, they FAILED in S Wales.
Widnes's money problems were started, in a large part, to a crooked chairman who as we understand it put us a million pounds in debt including illegally using the club to buy and trade 2million pounds worth of merchandise whilst avoiding applicable UK tax regulations. This was followed by an over-spend in an effort to achieve SL status by our previous owners. To compare the two clubs issues is, quite frankly, pathetic.

Lets just get it right , they haven produced anybody yet , what they have done is get existing RU players to play RL , VT rules dictate that only when you bring players through from age 8 can you claim them as your own , so a big well done to your local amatuer Union teams , not the Skorpions

 Nice try but thats simply not true. There are loads of clubs and rugby league players throughout south Wales. They are not all simply union converts. Even with the ones that are union converts, so what? They are now successful rugby league players so whats your problem with that?

Vast majority were home fans. Are you seriously suggesting leeds took 10000 away supporters???? About 1500 of that crowd were away fans.

| Quote Steve Fox="Steve Fox"Barrow won a comp in which it was known from the outset that there would be no promotion to SL.
If that incentive had have been there then the other clubs would likely have prioritised differently.
Featherstone, Halifax, Widnes or even 'relegated' Leigh might have got promotion by spending more on their squads than they did.'"
making the championship final is important as to apply for SL a champ. club needs to make a final
