Not another Anti RFL post. Jog on pal. Go watch another sport!

I'm sure that the OP will clearly indicate which particular part of the Sport Industry Awards nomination process they are unhappy with to demonstrate why this isn't just another attack on the RFL but a reasoned objection.

where do I start..... Just off the top of my head.....

Duel Registration killing the lower tiers
Stobart and the lack of sponsorship
Consistancy of disiplinary panels
Awarding of licences fiasco in 2011
RFL Bulls
Reduction in Sports England grants

No - I'm quite happy watching RL thank you.

The RFL are the Benchmark that other Sports aspire to.
Best practice in every decision.

Can't wait for the World Cup. We'll show 'em how to run a competition and viewing figures are going to unbelievable.

Then stop bleeding, I'm sick of reading negative Victor Meldrews on this site. RL hasn't got a big sponsor because its not a national game and that's a difficult pitch to a national company. Why that's the RFL's fault is beyond me.

Please tell me about the selection criteria that the Sport Industry Award panel used for the nominations and not just your generic bleats about your perceived RFL wrongdoings.

Classic rugby league fans. The governing body are nominated for an award and they complain.

I wouldn't be surprised if there were a fair few fans that want the World Cup to flop just so they can have a good moan at how badly run the game is

I think our nomination might be just a "stocking filler" to be honest. Some of the criteria for the nomination is similar to the criteria for the sports funding. As we failed on the latter don,t see whats changed maybe a different viewpoint perhaps, might cause confusion with the RFL they will make the assumption that everthing is good in the "Redhall Bubble".

1. A decision made by the clubs themselves and not the RFL
2. Who should the RFL demand sponsor the Super League? You know since they Are different things?
3. Do you sit on the panels and see all the evidence?
4. Again you seem to be confusing the RFL and The Superleague
5. I don't even know what that means
6. So the RFL are responsible for an entirely different sports body (who slashed grants to many other sports too)


In short

You reasons are utterly, without a doubt, 100% stupid
