If it was anyone else say if Widnes had been given the nod instead of their baby CC and they had done the same i am quite confident they would be thrown out of SL no questions asked,maybe other teams visa's should be scrutinised too ie GATESHEAD /OZ.

There seems to be a media feeling that it doesn't matter because it happened when they were in the National Leagues - which aren't important! However, if they hadn't cheated their way out of NL2, then they wouldn't have been in a position, in NL1, to apply for a franchise!

In attempting to ascertain what the RFL punishment might be, I also found out something fascinating about overseas' players from the RFL Operating Rules. However, you'll have to spend £2.50, on a programme, at the Halifax game, to find out what that was! icon_wink.gif

You can always tell a smart ar$e but you can't tell em much.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_16267.jpg



You would have thought the SL clubs would have high priced solicitors who would scrutinise & makesure that balls ups like this wouldn't happen.

They normally find loopholes they can exploit

Quote: "To be fair the blame will fall on the players and I don't think they are to fully blame, whilst people may scoff at players being quoted I don't think its too wide of the mark.

I don't reckon they knew what they were filling in really. They should have had better guidance all round. That said ignorance is not an excuse and perhaps said players should have questioned it too.'"

they are not to blame at all, it is up to the employer to ensure that all of their employees are legally entitled to work in this country. as an employer myself i have to show due diligence when employing anyone new, this takes the form of photocopying passports, national insurance cards and working visas. it is up to me to prove i have done this, not up to my employees.

Rugby League is folklore. What captures our imagination is not simply the winning or the losing, it's the stories. The stories of perseverance, of sheer will, of hard work, of heartbreak, of miracles, and of triumph and tragedy.:43504.jpg



To be fair, the players would have been advised as to what to do, and I dont think they should be blamed for this...somebody somewhere has been telling porkies. The real villians in this debacle are the club and the RFL...what happens next is anybodies guess...but what should happen is that CC should be relegated with points deducted for next season and be replaced by the winners of this years Championship Grand Final. But we all know that wont happen.

I understand what you are saying but would you sign something you had not read or did not understand? Even if someone said to me "Trust Me it is all okay" I would not sign if I had not read and fully understood

LIVING THE DREAM ALL THE WAY TO THE SUPER LEAGUE PLAY-OFFS! ''All our dreams can come true if we have the courage to pursue them'':Black Backgrounds/Miss%20Piggy.gif



The thing is with this one it cant be a usual RFL sweep me under the carpet job. This is now a legal matter which both employer and employee will have to prove their innocence. I am more than happy with the British legal system to go in search of the guilty ones!
