So thats RFL peeing 700k down the drain or do they use there charge on Wrexhams ground to recoup their/our clubs money.......and dickh**ds claim that licensing has been a success has been completely nullified by The Crusaders failure

Crusaders out best news ever

Big big shock there

What kick in the nads for Fax. Crusaders won't continue. Championship will have a quality side less.

What is the point of this?

happy for wakey & cas but still 3 years down the line when they wre told they have to get new grounds still no grounds, they should all of been kicked out
RFL stinks

I really feel for Halifax and their fans. They ticked every box, they have been the most consistant side in the Championship for the last three years and have made vast improvements to their ground.
Wakefield on the other hand, have been in administration and have continually lied about their ground / new ground.

Watch this space. Next round of franchise stipulations will not have a new ground or winning the NRC or getting to the Grand Final amoungst them.

As I see it Halifax's 'failure' was a lack of a youth set up in place, but they should have had a look in, as for Crusaders well I said when they were first 'formed' it wouldn't work without an infrastructure which they were building then tore it down when the move to North Wales came along, as for the French well 'nuff' said.
Now will the RFL learn, we cant sustain RL in the heartlands so stop throwing money elsewhere on stupid 'professional' clubs, get an infrastructure in place first.

Definitely feel for 'Fax today. Do they not offer as much, if not more than Wakey?

They must be wondering what needs to be done to get in?

Barring the inevitable eventual failure of Quins, it's hard to see how any Championship side can ever 'out-do' a SL side in the criteria stakes.

You reckon not ?

What's your point?
