Takeover to be complete soon!

Quote: trinfan71 "There lies the worry. London Broncos went out of business what happens to them, they form a new company with a different name and get guaranteed Super League.

What annoys me more with the whole franchise thing and how it shows the true colours of the RFL. Widnes lose out on a licence because they went into administration. The club that get in ahead of them, is then found guilty of (for want of a better phrase) employing illegal workers, hence the deportation and banning from the country of those employees. The same club then goes into administration a year later after moving from one end of a country to another. The rules are then changed regarding administration they have debt converted into a loan by the governing body and are pretty much guaranteed a franchise for life. We hit the same financial problems with debt go into administration where Ralph Rimmer is interviewed and states that administration will most probably count against us, but covered his ass enough by saying but licences depend on other factors too.

So in a nutshell anyone who thinks we and the other clubs of a similar stature to us within the game are going to be treated equally has more chance of winning the lottery every wednesday and saturday for the rest of their lives, than Lewis & Co giving fair treatment.

The franchise system was and IMHO still is the beginning of the end of Rugby League as we know it. Nobody is safe from the expansion vision, if / when we go this time a shiny new stadium is not going to help the next club on the RFL radar.'"

Yeah have email Nigel Wood saying same, again bombard them with stuff lets show them we want to fight
