Quote: Deano G "Even by the standards of the RFL this is a complete farce.

Crusaders should never have been in SL in the first place. The business plan must have been written by Hans Christian Andersen.

And as for the decision to keep Fax out but keep Wakey in... this is the same set of total muppets at the RFL who kept Widnes out because they'd been in admin, even though the club had since been bought by a very successful businessmen. Honestly, you couldn't make this up.

The biggest thing holding back RL is the RFL. Total and complete muppets, the lot of them.'"

The RFL pushed Crusaders too high too soon IMO. If they'd been allowed to develop in the Championship for longer instead of being thrown in at the deep end in SL they might have been in a position now to apply for a SL license for 2012. It's a shame really becuase I think there is a market for rugby league in Wales. It just needs to be catered for better by the RFL.

I just hope that this doesn't put people off the idea of expansion of the game. Rugby League still needs to grow because standing still these days is no longer an option. If you aren't growing, you're shrinking

I personally am gutted. This season I was finally in a position to be able to go to the Wrexham game and I thoroughly enjoyed the day and was looking forward to next year and now it wont be there and I dont blame Crusaders I blame the RFL because, though without them I wouldnt have been able to enjoy this year, if they hadnt got it so wrong in the first place and brought them in so early then theyd probably still be around. I know they applied for a licence but the RFL shouldnt have seen pound sign they should have laughed it off and said "no wait 3 more years."

Quote: Geoff "The RFL need to set out in detail how they viewed the relative merits of the two clubs' applications. It's no good just asserting that Wakey's was better than Fax's, without explaining why.

Looking at the factors they're supposed to take into accountStadium - clearly Fax
Finances - again, clearly Fax
Youth set up - dunno, but pretty equal, I'd think.
Crowds - of course a SL team will always win that one (if only because of away supporters),
but as I've mentioned earlier, Fax drew bigger crowds when both teams were last in SL.
On field performances - again, can't really compare, but Fax fulfilled that criterion, and Wakey have hardly
been setting SL alight.
Paint Drying - the only one that Wakey win, IMO.'"



Geoff, Wakeys youth set up is graded A+ just the same as Wigans, only 4 teams are graded this high.

On what basis? As high a grade as Wigan? That's just ridiculous.

Didn't wakey have a good under 18s side last year? Or did I just make that up?

I did say "dunno", but I'm surprised at that grading, from what I've seen of their Academy sides over the past 3 years or so (and I do go to all our home games). We battered them something like 44-6 a couple of weeks ago.

on boots 'n' all last night Halifax chairman aluded to the fact they dont have one big benefactor to support them in Super League. What worries me is if these benefactors in other clubs just decide to call it a day and don't put anymore money in. I agree with Clarkey that these clubs need to be able to stand up on their own two feet and start being run as succesful businesses.
