Quote: belgianxiii "No this is interesting. Crusaders to be kicked out of SL and Widnes to take their place. next year, under franchising review, the least capable SL side (widnes) gets relegated in favour of the best Championship club (crusaders) ...'"

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

You're correct , there are those of us who knew it was a farce last time and also knew it was only a matter of time until this happened

As I said earlier this year

Belgian

the snag is that they very likely wouldn't be the best side in the Championship...unless of course they have oodles of parachute money and another boatload of Aussies are permitted (hopefully with visas this time).

With crowds of 300-400 they would be ripe to "do a Blackpool" before you could say "the RFL are a bunch of clueless clowns"...

WELSH RUGBY LEAGUE - PRIDE & PASSION IN THE FACE OF ADVERSITY:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_36819.jpg



www.guardian.co.uk/sport/2010/no ... CMP=twt_gu

This makes very interesting reading, especially this paragraph -

'That follows a meeting of Super League clubs last month where they voted to change the rules that had previously disqualified any club entering administration from any subsequent application.'

If some clubs have voted this then they would have no gripe if Crusaders were given a place during the next franchise application. It seems they want us in any which way but loose.

Everything points to us being the new blue eyed boy on the RFL block. I'm not saying it is fair but I think the European success of the Welsh international team has forced their hand and I truly feel since moving to Wrexham we have been run like a top flight club for a change. I think the RFL will now take a look at us in the final year when we are debt free as it seems the W Crusaders Ltd company will take us over and make a decision from there.

i think the vote you are talking about went against the crusaders but the rfl have pressed on with the rule change regardless of the vote,exactly the same has they pressured some clubs into changing their minds when a vote went against a then london broncos team with the added threat if you dont change your vote you will lose your sky money. icon_wink.gif

our game is corrupt at the minute everyone knows it only some will admit it.rl is no longer a sport at super league level.

2015 - major missed opportunity, 2016 - stronger teams = harder task (no problem there then), 2017 - OMG What now!!!:953.jpg



I see tb has locked a poll on the subject of the crusaders being allowed in SL. Do lewis's and wood grubby fingers reach as far as the VT icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

I love dredging old posts up

Quote: Starbug "47 grand icon_lol.gif icon_lol.gif

Yeah i know, rather childish of me. I could have posted the guff that Dally served up on the subject but it's cringeworthy. And yes, i can also dredge up stories of the bucket collections at Halifax 4 year ago icon_cool.gif

The RFL need to rebuild a bit of credibility that's for sure.

Obviously I assumed that when they actually moved everything to Wrexham they had the brains to get rid of any outstanding financial problems from the old club that could come back to bite them on the , it would seem I was wrong , they dont have the brains , maybe they were advised by the RFL ?

Even though I still stick with my prediction , I'll give them another 18 months even with a clean slate , 30 at most

I suppose 200 grand plus a year helps you be a little ' hard faced ' , especially when you have brought in somebody else to do the dirty work , a total disgrace
