Quote: ry21 "so how were crusaders able to continue to sign players? or did the rfl not place a ban on them as they knew they were goingto get unconditional support from them and the risks lower?'"

Officially, I don't think they did.

Interesting comment for me is that we are "banned" from signing new players by the RFL.

Is that why we have to wait until May (was it?) to sign the oversea's prop?

Yeah, difficult to know when it wasn't widely known about our ban until theGrauniad today. Still, it was well known we hadn't got enough cover in the front row during last season, let alone now we can't do anything about it!

By all accounts the deal to sign Hickey was done, but was blocked by the RFL

Quote: TRB "It's not a guess, but is based on good information - and is in what the club have said publicly.

Pardon me for the semantics!
Sorry for the lateness of reply to this one.

Anyways, basically you're a victim of your own success on this one TRB.

Over the last 2-3 years you have become the single most credible line of info around regarding the club and not just on this forum. That is one hell of an achievement by any standards.

Sadly now through no fault of your own your out on a limb. Whatever you say will be seized on as gospel. You say something positive some will take it as fact no matter how often you say it's speculation. When it doesn't happen and in the current climate there's every chance it won't you will be the scapegoat for peoples disapointment. You say something negative and then you'li be accused of being Teds poodle and how they had told you you were wrong all along - you get the gist.

You have two choices, go against your nature and stop being open, honest and telling the truth as you know it at the time. Or put on the old steel helmet and bicycle clips and keep telling us all what you know or think you know regardless.

I for one hope you do the latter. You may be one of lives great optimists which annoys some but not me. As a natural pessimist it really helps me.

Keep on trying TRB - my old school motto was "All is possible with effort" - if we get out of this you and all the others who help are living proof that it's true (course I don't believe a word of it eusa_whistle.gif )

Thanks! I really don't know any other way and will try and help connect as many dots as I can.

The Trust will hopefully force the issue of open-ness going forward. There is a limit to what the Trust can achieve at this moment, but we are making ourselves available to the interested parties and we hope to recieve contact once the issue becomes a little clearer. At that point, the concerns that people have regarding the club going forward will be put before them.

I also think that those who may be scpetical about some of the information I put on here should take comfort in the fact that there are so many people involved in the Trust, and that several of them are represented on here and known for their honesty and integrity. We are all party to the same information.

Quote: j.c "Batley were banned from signing players a couple of month back because they owed money to the tax man.'"


The players were signed on , but the RFL refused to register them until we had cleared our debt to the tax man to zero , even tho we had an agreement with her majestys tax in place, dont know how you guys will manage that , but good luck guys , its a new rule brought in on the 1st oct by the RFL to help the clubs

Some Cas fans seem to think we will not be allowed to apply for SL if we go into admin. Anyone heard owt?

I know the admin condition has been removed but wouldn't be suprised if there was some goalpost moving

We could probably still apply but we would be in a very weak position unless there really is a millionaire owner lurking in our midst.

Indeed, admin no longer puts a black mark against your name (in the eyes of the RFL) but a weak financial position does.

Aloud to sign players? I'm pretty sure not.
