If the ' task force ' are that good , why not get them to go to the clubs before they are bolloxed

Or is that too simple ?

Any arguments to make against my valid points? Or do you want to keep talking drivel?

Celtic's franchise goes against all the rules of succesful RL franchises. I want them to do well, but im angry at the rfl for putting them in this position.

He's right you know

Your post was knee-jerk bollox because you are judging a fledgling team 6 months into a 3 year project.

You kid are the one talking drivel.

3 years 6 months in

not that I am bothered like

It is not a 3 year project , it is a badly planned act of desperation by the RFL

Either way, judge them after the three years.

(if of course they last that long...)

You know, I havent mentioned Widnes once, the only people that have are, er, Widnes fans. Who apparently "dont care" or something.


But shall we asses a few other teams records?

Halifax - were in SL, went bust trying to compete.
Huddersfield - were in SL, couldnt compete, took a long time to rebuild.
Widnes - were in SL, couldnt compete, went bust trying to get back in
Leigh - were in SL, couldnt compete, nearly went bust as a result of trying to compete.


Did I miss anyone?

Oh yeah

Celtic - brand new in SL, not being given chance to even try and compete before being lynched.

London

People are overreacting big time. A recent news report on Celtic stated that they need 4,500 fans a game to break even. Despite RL being relatively new in Wales and having some opponents who aren't especially big draws to the local people they're actually not too far off that pace. After 9 home games their average crowd is 3,778, more than 80% of their break-even level. Maybe not great, but not that bad in the current economic climate I'd say.

Halifax , went bust not competing

Huddersfield , bailed out by sugar daddy , still being bailed out by sugar daddy

Widnes , dropped out of SL to make way for French club , didn't moan about it , had to bust club to get rid of unworkable rental agreement , now very solvent

Leigh , went up , were crap and contrary to popular opinion did not nearly go bust trying to compete , they finished bottom and were rightly relegated

HTH

If only you were remotely right

So which bits are wrong ?

Their disgust was probably founded though!!

This season was always going to be tough.

Celtics promotion and 'soon after demise' was inevitable IMHO. It was far too soon!
