Quote: Hillbilly_Red "At last the debate starts - carping has gone.
Aside - Prestwich Red - my argument is based on a belief that SL aims include "developing the game" (so magic weekends do meet that criteria- but we argue against this way as a lost cause), "raising participation levels" (again the same).
If you do not accept the aims of the club/group/organistion you join - then you should leave. So do we deserve to stay in SL?
I gave up my determination not to be part of this board as mature opinions were on display in this post.
My attitude to the weekend was one of incredible pride. No other sport could have done the same.
As we know, Newcastle want it for 2011.
I agree on pricing but saved up for this one - I'll now save up for more. I want to be part of any promotion of Rugby League. And, believe me, I fully support the weekend. I pray for a time when all kids are exposed to Rugby League.'"
Sorry Hillbilly Red but this post has totally confused me.
It appears at best to be a mish mash of gibberish
I said the money spent on the Weekend would have been best used on youth development, which surely promotes the sport , and I think somewhere in the mist you do agree to this.
In the end though you do say I should go if I do not support the ideals of the Great God that is Red Hall, RL and SCRRLFC.
That is where I will leave this debate as I am obviously not worthy.
Final point, fookin Newcastle 2011 cant wait for that
