Perhaps the FA cup semi finals and the London Marathon had something to do with this fixture taking place on Friday night.

That sir is an excellent point and makes a lot of sense. |

The only thing pathetic is your post. |

You're clearly not daft, but your insistence on repeatedly setting up this straw man argument makes you look increasingly so.
For the last time - deriding the RFL's expansion failures and wanting WTW to increase their attendance are not mutually exclusive of each other; to argue against doing one in favour of doing the other makes no sense.
Are you Nigel Wood? |

| Quote t-r-i-n-i-t-y="t-r-i-n-i-t-y"But then after every Quins/Crusaders game, and even before this one, we get the same thread time and time again. Why not thread after thread slagging off Salford after every game, not just this one, or because they are 'heartland' don't they count or something?
A few questions for you all:
Do you think that we are battling against Crusaders or Quins for a licence, or Castleford and Halifax?
Do you honestly believe that Eddie and Stevo pick the clubs to be in Super League?
Do you believe that those who do would take any notice of what Eddie and Stevo say?
Who are the favourites to lose their licence this year, and were last year?
Yes, the future looks brighter at the moment, but Glover coming in and tarting up Belle Vue a bit does not cover over a decade or more where the club was run worse than a corner shop, let the ground decline (and had to rely on Leeds reserves to upgrade the dug-outs at one point,) not exploit media potential in the area by a succession of people unable to do the role, and that can be said of many other roles given to 'friends and family' over the years too.

I just don't understand your constant need to come over all morally superior, every time someone criticizes any team or the expansion process. Just because I or any fan support Trinity, doesn't mean we can't voice our opinion on aspects of RL, whether you like the subject or not . At the end of the day that's what this forum is for, discussing all aspects of RL and we don't have to 'get our own house in order' to have a opinion. |

I don't, i think we are battling against the RFL for a SL franchise.
I also believe we will not get one (at this present time) and that ours will not be the weakest application IF they follow the critera laid down.
I also believe that being a development side and having a new stadium is the be all and end all of the RFL and the critera is little more than a fairy tale.
No doubt i'll be shot down but thats my view. |

Agree 100%. Interesting comments on the 2009-2011 licences from RU commentator Brian Moore in this link.

Careful, they'll be asking if you actually are a fan or "pretending" to be one next......
It's shame really, cos I think its a worthwhile topic for discussion, but nobody seems to wants to do that - it's much easier to tell you to do one and accuse you of being a doom and gloom merchant and negative (or the the moral majority!) rather than offering an argument of their own back in return. |

I always liked the way he ignored completely what was happening on the field and concentrated on telling us the players weights and what amature side they played for! |
