If you get more than -4 points the sports a discrace.

We know the mitigating circumstances which saw Crusaders' deduction reduced - taking foward and committing to repaying some of the pre- administration debt.

Wakefield haven't formally come out of admimistration yet, and we don't know what mitigating circumstanced might apply.

Or maybe you do, as you seem so sure that the penalty should be reduced ... care to share your knowledge?

Your defence of everything "expansionism" is admirable, but what the poster actually wrote was:

I suggest you dismount, Lester.

EDIT: Hold my hand up - I now see your point (even if the other guy is right

)

If we get more than a 6 point deduction, it's fairly clear we have not taken on any debt, if that is the case then the RFL are right and it is as good an indication as any that we are playing NL1 next year.

I think it's daft politics by the RFL. Let's face it, the difference between a four or six point deduction is unlikely to make much of an impact on our final placing. They could make it four points and look like they are treating us the same as Crusaders. By deducting six points, they give the conspiracy theorists something to scream about.

Correct slugger, they will clearly win more games than us this season so whats the point?

Yes but what if Crusaders go bust again and dont pay back the 700k?. Cant be making much money or wouldnt have gone bust last time round. Much the same as us.

Then the RFL will be the proud owners of a football club.

We got shafted when we first got promoted and had no SL money for two years. Just think how different things might have been had we had that (and got rid of Ted and cronies much sooner).

Over a decade on and we are still getting shafted

Fair point, any theories how the FA would feel bout this?. Just to take our minds off other issues.

but hang on mate ted did a good job.
