Quote: Cross Hills Cougar "Last year Whitehaven and York did same braech as Batley & Doncasyer this season.

Last year, Whitehaven were already safe from relegation (even if they'd been docked 3 points) and not in play-offs. York already in a relegation place.

So decision on sanctions simply being a caution seems sort of ok - no additional impact on funding either.

This year is totally different with the Batley & Doncaster breaches with the effect on relegation and funding based on finishing position. 3 points deductions seems sort of ok.

But idiot appeals panel blindly follows what happened last year despite completely different circumstances.'"

3 other clubs also breached it last year, and from the rfl statement even they were not aware of any breach last season until presented as evidence by batley at their appeal,its a mess and DR should be scrapped

Quote: burleycougar "Warzone ? Why would I expect that ?
I'm sure all the festival goers are normal decent people ,
I was talking about things that could cause any player a great deal
Of damage with things like sliding takles .You know , bottle caps coins that sort of thing.
If showing concern for the players over that is wrong then fair do s , I'm wrong.
Not mad either , just well addled after years of uber strong opiods
Think we will all need opiods on Sunday

Will some people please step back from the keyboard.
Stop the threats.
Lets stop the name calling. Lets cut out using #@$ that sort of thing to try and disguise words.
We all want whats best for the club.
We just have different views on how it should be done.

I have only been wrong once and thats because I thought I was wrong but I was wrong I was right! Petty authoritarians aren’t man enough to challenge the actions of a person face to face; instead they incite a forum of rumour, innuendo and half truths, and impose rude sanctions to discourage those who dare question fairness. Anon.:simpsons/simp048.gif



A bit dramatic there GW, I don't recall seeing any threats, just annoyed and anguished fans seeing their club throw it all away and blow off steam against each other. But you are right, it ends up going too far. I'm pretty good at pushing the boundaries myself sometimes icon_wink.gif

To be fair some fans do go on a bit about the coach and chairman but they do have a right to do that, in the same way that others can argue they think they are wrong.

I think Burley had a point about the playing surface, it is poop.

Quote: Rach "Going to get battered here but to be fair to Batley n Donny can see what happened and have some sympathy and a thought that we could have been in the same boat....

Both teams like us have minimal full time staff , if it had been Jeremy for us, would despite his 25 years service on little pay been vilified for screwing up , Paul Harrison is in the same boat at Batley....

Holding people to account who have worked for their club for years is pretty poor ,,,,if we want to stay up on on that premise..see u inn CC1 next year ..

The argument should be with those at the RFL and their mates not then clubs who are working their s off to stay within a set of ever changing obscure n frankly convoluted rules that only seem to favor Super League and the clubs in there'"


The rules have been on the RFL website for anyone to see all year,. Dewsbury, who were also investigated, certainly knew about the 3 games/£20k rule and indeed checked up with both Bradford and the RFL before playing the player concerned - they even kept this quiet so as not to embarrass their neighbours at Batley who hadn't even bothered to check what the rules on DR were! Their original defence of 'we didn't know the rules' is, quite frankly, laughable and shambolic for a supposedly professional outfit.

Those in the relevent positions at any club HAVE to be held to account for their mistakes. It matters not whether they are volunteers or full time staff.

But you are right, it ends up going too far. I'm pretty good at pushing the boundaries myself sometimes Glad someone else agrees over th condition of the pitch ,
Compaared to other clubs in our posotion it is nowhere near.
Just looks starved of a good watering and feeding over the closed
Season , then the divvits and tufts could be seen to I presume , I am no expert.
Too heavy work for me to do in my current state but wondered if our glorious
Leader would accept help from a couple of volunteers if they could be found.
I am sure a couple of hours a week from a couple of people would work
Wonders over the closed season.
