Hopefully, turning up at the RFL Christmas do with a couple of blonde hookers, some sedatives, a couple of oranges, leather hoods, and a camera. It could be our only hope.

I admire your optimism, I really do, but I don't share it. Nothing to do with that "end of year feeling" - I'm generally in pretty good form this time of year. The arguments just don't stack up at the moment for me. It'll take a cunning plan of incredibly cunning proportions to get us out of this one. Still, nowt else better to do, so what the hell...

This isn't formula 1, you know...

I didn't say I was optimistic, but it ain't over 'til it's over. It's about the only approach we can have.

Quite apart from being totally pi...ed off with the awful situation about Trinity, I despair at reading the infantile spats that completely detract from any sensible discussion. Someone already said that they would be just as disappointed if Cas were to be unsuccessful in their efforts. So would I, I'd be disappointed for any other club. Well said.
On a global basis, what hold Rugby League back is the backbiting and childish sniping that goes on.Not only in forums such as this, but at the highest level in the Australian competition too.
I live in New Zealand. You should hear the NZ media crowing over the new 10-man committee system adopted to run NRL in one body. The Kiwis know full well that finding 10 people within any Rugby League organisation who can even agree that it's day time, or night time, when the sun is shining is going to be very difficult.
Stop friggin sniping. We all believe exactly the same thing- this is the greatest game.
Do we want chaos?
Do we want RL to disappear down the tubes?
Do we want to grow successive Sonny Bills, just to feed them into Rugby Union?
The current answer is probably yes! Because the only man organised enough to see that our gam eis in crisis is...ME !!
And Russell Crowe. He can see it too, but he didn't hear it from me.

PLAN B..

I honestly don't think he will be losing much sleep because of it.

Move on to the next deal.

Dont be disapointed guys - this was never gonna take off as i posted in October ... National league 2012 and a new start ...

how many fans home fans wud travel to barnsley it wud be like an away game u wud lose alot of support crusaders out not wakey ........tigers till i die

The key here is not what has happenedit is what can WE do now. I am just waiting for direction on that , having already written to the press. Mr Pickles and RFL are my next targets, just to stress the importance of OUR Tteam to OUR CITY of the part we have played to date in RL and the fact that why should we let the massive efforts of such as the Community Dept go unrewarded . Letters will be constructive and positive

Playing where ?

Sorry 200k you lose a bit of sleep.

I hope he is losing sleep but I doubt it. Too many fingers in too many pies and all that.

Hel have subsidies a large tax bill else where no doubt - gr8 gesture tho !!!
