Come on slugger , we know the RFL can make sheet look shiny if they want to

It was funny on B n A the other night , Nige was asked five different questions , but used the same answer five times , just rearranging the words differently

Looks like Halifax have bowed to the inevitable: www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... ml&BID=480

Yeah major climb down from Halifax all week,bit of a grovel from chairman in League Express as well "no axe with any club" etc etc but no apology to Wakey for defammatory comments when he was having his tantrum live on tv.Hope AG and co have good memories and bare this in mind if we ever have to do business with this muppet.

As was said by a few at the time, the state of their application was embarrassing and the evaluation by the RFL was scathing.

Delivering it by helicopter etc was indicative of the naivety of their management team who failed to grasp the level of detail and substance required within the report.

No doubt that message has been delivered by the RFL resulting in the Chairmans climbdown unfortunately he doesn't have the class to apologise for his unwarranted attack on the Wakefield Trinity RLFC.

Steep learning curve for the BoD at Halifax, hopefully they'll be better next time.

You lot might not have that long to be ' better ' , you got to stay in by the skin of your teeth , you were out on monday morning , as for the level of detail and substance required , a picture of Belle vue with a drawing of a stand on it isn't exactly that great is it ?

I've been watching my inbox for an apology from you and a few others, after you shouted me down over the Fax bid.

Now that everything I said has proved to be 100% correct, would you like to do it on this thread?

Or is your head still too far up your ?

There is no evidence that we were out, in fact there are statements to the contrary. I don't want to labour the point but I was there when certain individuals, who hold positions that allow them to know, made comments regarding the strength of Wakefelds application and in the wake of Steels tirade made other comments on the Halifax application.

No, I don't have a link so believe it or don't believe it, I couldn't care either way, but perhaps time will tell as more info makes the public domain.

There is still no evidence to support your claims either way , the fiasco of events 3 weeks ago in no way validate anything , the RFL had to make decision in a matter of hours , one they probably hadn't even considered , they may well have taken the easy option , nobody but they know , not you , not me , unlike you I didn't pretend to know

Black is actually white, the Earth is flat, John Lennon shot Kennedy, Obama is an alien and the Halifax bid was actually really good.

Oh, and Starbug is not a mentalist.

It is only speculation that we were in due to crusaders opting out. I would like to see both Wakefield and Halifax offer their reports to the public, as fans I think we deserve it. The RFL can't legally issue this as after all the clubs are businesses, disclosing details of financials etc is sticky ground. I do feel sorry for Halifax but even their fans must understand the cock ups of the previous board are being well and truly resolved now.

There is no evidence to suggest "we got in by the skin of our teeth.." either as you suggest so why say that....

This statement from Halifax goes some way to corroborating what I was told, unfortunately it doesn't offer any kind of apology to Wakefield Trinity RLFC. www.sportinglife.com/rugbyleague ... ml&BID=480

You are quite right , no evidence either way , my post was my opinion only , and that of the most of RL and probably 90 % of Wakefield fans as well , only opinion

Quite funny that , I'm surprised and impressed
