Quote: Starbug "Strange though isn't it Rich , this is the second time a club has risen rapidly through the leagues only to be found to have been ' Cheating ' , we all knew about both clubs , the RFL however seem to prefer to ignore what is plainly in front of them , as long as the club doing it has some ' value ' to them , ie a potential expansion club for SL

And yes I know Leigh were punished for ' Cheating ' as well , but as they say , the punishment fits the crime , ours was relatively minor and not deliberate'"


If you have evidence of another club persistently circumventing the SC over a number of years, then I think the phrase is: put up or shut up.

Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently. Rosa Luxemburg, 'Die russiche Revolution'.:Black Backgrounds/Zoot.gif



Is that the heavist penalty impose on a club without actually expelling them imposed by the RFL?

This is what should have been done to Wigan.

Questions have to be asked as to why there are different punishments for different clubs for the same offense?

He used the phrase "cheating" not specifically circumventing the salary cap. Cheating could be anything from cap violations, drugs, playing a whole bunch of foreigners who didn't have the correct visas when the rest of the league had only one quota spot...

Quote: Jake the Peg "Good job no SL clubs would ever circumvent the salary cap'"

I think it must be the manner of the offence , if you breach the cap because of say a bonus payment that was unexpected then they fine you and you get telling off , if however you blatantly cheat knowing your going over and pay people in brown paper bags etc then your gonna get slammed... oh wait didn't Wigan do that? icon_mrgreen.gif

Adding onto that what the Workington Chairman has said with the restructure in 2013 could have more "expansion" clubs eg Hemel in the league. Will be truely a national league plus some new grounds for me to tick off

It does make me wonder if the solution is to eventually admit some of the stronger clubs from the RLC National and merge the two championship divisions together to set up smaller regional conferences.

....are the rl board when they have decided to punish Barrow so serverely in comparison to
wigan's poultry points deduction for their salary cap breach which overtly saved them from relegation.

THERE NEED TO BE SOME SERIOUS QUESTIONS ASKED AND SOME ANSWERS GIVEN BECAUSE THIS
STINKS!

No West Yorks or SW Lancs clubs?
