Sad as this is, I find myself being MORE concerned about out SL future as a result of this rather than feeling with have a little bit more certainty over our future.

It would seem Mr Noble already knew what was to Happen ? as for there players I wonder how that leaves them if they default on wages its open season ,its sad for any team as we already know from our inspired past but hey ho if it means we stay up and carry on.
this week may be the week I renew my season tickets

Absolutely; the tunnel vision and intransigence of the RFL when it comes to 'expansion' clubs will guarantee that no matter what, Crusaders will be around for a good few years to come.

Equally, one way or another, they'll get rid of a West Yorkshire club; that will be us or Cas.

No they'll remove the weakest franchise bid based on the critera they have set down, all above board and fair play all round.

I’m not sure how such clubs as Leeds, Hull, Hull K.R. will react to this, if I was their CEO, I know which clubs supporters & hard cash, I’d rather have coming to Headingley etc.

i think we all know that the rfl will shaft either cas or youselves at the next round of franchises,for me it would be criminal if an heartlands club was to be sacrifised for a club that has twice gone under in the space of 14 months had 6 players deported and cast aside all its local players in favour of overseas cast offs.

what can we do ? well we could sit back and take the 50/50 chance that you hope its not your club that will go or show the rfl that you care and let them know what we really think of their fantasy league they are trying to create.what better opportunity than millenium magic to stand side by side and peacefully show our disgust at the way the rfl think that they can scrape us off their shoe like dog muck.

but then the cameras would have to pan around and pick this out and I'm sure the sky sports team would do their utmost to avoid this as everything has to correct

Do you think for one second that Sir Rodders would have parted with his hard earned without certain assurances from the highest echelons within the game?
No me neither......

I was thinking along the same lines, but I didn't want to stir up the hornets nest again...

I would stand side by side with cas supporters cos all this STINKS big time. Get rid of this franchise crap and bring back P & R on a level playing field then we all know where we stand
