Bolshy? Me?
Wouldn't it be great if this (and others) came off at the expense of SL! Nigel working his fat arris off for Salford - seems that they get all the help that they certainly don't deserve. They haven't sold one season ticket yet they still hold a licence!

What does me is that sl clubs, wakey, bradford, salford, london have gone ar se upperds and damn near gone out of business, yet the rfl bend over backwards time n again to ensure their continuity in the league.
Crusaders indeed went down the garry glitter yet sl most certainly would have renewed their licence.
Yet, faxs' financial plan had flaws ffs!!!!
Cc clubs have to jump thru flamin hoops to justify an application whereas established licencees can pi ss up a rope and still another licence.
Utter sheeeeiite!

Which is why, despite my outward bittermess (jealousy?) to the potential Fev windfall, i would still smile warmly if it did come off - and to see the reaction of SL fans. We (Fev, Leigh and Fax) are never going to be as big as the Wig4ns and Saints of this world but we shouldn't feel inferior to clubs like Wakefield, Cas, London and the other non-super clubs in Super league. They are there by virtue of lucky timing in most cases. Not even sure i'd want to go back in to be honest. Would be great to play top clubs but not sure i could stomach the constant wooden spoons that Widnes will be picking up over the next few years. |

Then, when pressed its the "whatever, it will end in tears" reposte, again without any acknowledgement of monies and committment already received?
I guess it's daft pressing this with you, given your willingness to ignore the evidence presented.
So I'll leave you to nip over to morrison's for afe a kilo of wings of bat and two dozen eyes of newt!
Get thi cauldron fired up owd lad.'"
Never mind that with respect Robin.
Will you have a 110 yard by 75 yard playing area and a level pitch ?  Oh and underground heating ? |

In addition a huge huge wad covering the signing of Ellis James and Bryant has already been banked! E.G. The bloke has already divvied up true to his word.
Now I'd say that is good enough for me to have confidence in him.
The deal signed on Monday evening has sod all to do with the land Fev own to dispell further suposition.
Great deal for Fev with the amounts unheard of at this level.'"
In that case I'm really pleased for you and your club and I hope that this time he's true to his word.  |

Good luck to Fev, anyone with aspirations of SL need a sugar daddy to get in and win anything! Bad stories about a businessman usually mean he's good at it!!!

Featherstone has a population of 14,175. Where do they expect to get the fans from to support a top 6 SL team?
I hope Fev are acting sensibly. They should spend any extra money on projects that are going to be around and benefiting them long after the money has gone. If they waste it on players, it may be difficult to adjust the playing budget when the money dries up.

Grief - the old Fev only has a 14k population reposte!! Most fans appear to have moved on from this one, but anyhoo.... here goes - again...
Fev pull in from other areas as my username might just indicate Michael.
Fev have never just pulled from their immediate locality - just the same as Leigh.
Fev has always historically been the club of Pontefract as anyone with just a smidge of local knowledge realises - just check out the population of ponty!
In the pre SL days - without a backer to finance players for an assault at silverware - we did ok from the surrounding locality.
