If this was some years ago Rimmer would be negotiating the new SKY deal, but it's today and Lenegan is doing those negotiations. They have been reported as being well advanced.
When the Government money was being offered to the RFL Superlegue walked back into Red Hall, once they pocketed it all they walked straight back out. Rimmer is well paid and is doing what he's told for it

| Quote: Donnyman "That only counts if the four or five clubs ahead of them in a league table even qualify for Superleague, in terms of their finances and other criteria. Leigh may be ahead of them due to Mr. Beaumont (but I doubt this). Featherstone are not ahead of them as their owner cannot afford SL and has a club that is generally Leeds "A" team.
You have no idea what deal Bradford council may be doing over Odsal to get the Bulls back there, you have no idea the extent to which Mark Sawyer may be involved and organising a board of directors with Nigel Wood that may have the finances to compete at the top again. Most of all you are oblivious to how far the SL bosses may want to go to ensure Bulls return or maybe Newcastle provide some real expansion or both. Certainly SL bosses asked Bulls and Newcastle to run reserves - they didn't ask Fev or leigh did they?
Don't you remember a time when the league table was a total irrelevance? It was not that long ago.'"
Sorry bud.
It's irrelevant what deal Bradford Council may be prepared to offer The Bulls
Right now, they are a long way from being the "SL elect" and as for Newcastle, again, not yet.
Are you seriously suggesting that ANY club should be promoted by committee, with on field performance completely disregarded ??
Let them (any club) earn promotion properly, on the field of play and by the agreed system.
I cannot comprehend how ANY club could just get a free pass into the top flight - it's a ridiculous concept and assuming anyone has enough money left, there would be lawsuits aplenty if we go your route.
You do remember that this is the same Bradford Bulls that walked away from their previous agreement leaving the rest of the sport to pick up the tab and now you want some (very) special treatment for them.
You complain when I pick up on some of your posts and have a go but, with stuff like this, it's hard not to respond.

| Quote: The Video Ref "Love the borderline casual racism on this thread.
I mean imagine being in any other profession or industry and saying you didn't want new colleagues from thousands of miles away / another country joining your organisation. 'Yes, why do we let these Drs and nurses from thousands of miles away (who are now having visa problems) work for the NHS'.
You would almost certainly end up on some equality and diversity refresher training and worst case scenario you would be out the door shortly after you had finished the sentence.'"
Give your head a shake ! People talking about practicalities is in ZERO way even skirting with any race innuendo. You sir are taking the proverbial by using a perfectly legitimate argument/statement/fact/suggestion & twisting it to promote your own looney lefty agenda !!!

| Think some people need to get a dictionary cause clearly they don’t know what Racism means.
Anyway, I’m sure there will be a just and logical solution to it all.

Racist? Absolute tosh but predictably convenient against any view differing to yours. Corbynesque.

Canadians showing they can mismanage a franchise as well as any Welsh or English could?

The "commercial" rent that they were paying at Odsal and then couldn't afford / wouldn't pay, hence the move in with Dewsbury ?
It's interesting that some posters now expect the council who themselves will be cash strapped, to fund a return to Bradford and Odsal / new ground.
Although the local council may wish to see Braford playing back home, it's hard to thing that they would be throwing money at the project. Although they would very likely try and help on planning stuff etc, were it to be a new ground in the city.

What? How naive. A comet about Little Englanders is 'Corbynseque'? Not quite sure where you did your politics degree? This is a rugby league forum, we are not discussing the biography of a former leader of a political party. You really are showing your ignorance of that what you wish to discuss on RLFANS.com.
Again this is about rugby league and how we build it back up if this chaos ever end. NOT the rights or wrongs of Brexit.

Fully agree it is an RL forum you banded about the racism card basically because you didn't agree with manys opinion.
The merits or lack of regarding TWP has been debated and despite reading many eloquent posts in favour i stand by my opinion it was a ludicrous idea from the start. Hopefully the reports of impending misdemeanors herald their implosion.
As an aside i never mentioned Brexit and haven't on an RL board so strange you do so? Just work on the principle posters who don't conform to your way of thinking are not automatically racist and it will avoid meltdowns in future. Fond Regards..

| Following on from Twitter post hinting at strife in TWP camp Davidson puts meat on the bone and it sounds dire. For all it seemed inevitable the business model was unsustainable and the fact based on another continent made the whole premise impractical it's not good to hear the players are suffering so. Who's to blame? Who did the due diligence for RFL? What will their 17 look like come Aug 2nd? For all i thought this would happen it seems it's going to get very messy. Donnyman was right.

Rlfans - the most toxic rugby league forum in the world: |
|
| Toronto will be here next season, even stronger.
Sorry to burst all the flat cappers bubble and Leigh’s fans hopes of promotion but it’s true.
Their season ticket waiting list is even longer than last season and they have 2 unbelievable signings about to be announced for next season.
All is good in Toronto. Sorry.
