| Quote: charlie63wildcat "It is hard to maintain respect for a sport that decides who plays in its top league via a beauty contest, lacking transparency and inevitably open to corruption, or at the very least, the uncomfortable whiff of it. Maybe Wakefield should not be allowed in SL on the basis of facilities, but the first qualifying tick for the right to be there should be earning it on the pitch, then the judgement of your facilities etc. I firmly believe we should return to one up one down with the caveat of the promoted club fulfilling set criteria re facilities and business performance, as it was proir to the hijacking of our game by an Australian coach led agenda and the naked greed and self interest of SL clubs. The sight of Sky commentators and the SL show concensus of condemnation of Wakefield sickens me. I would not want to see any club receiving this kind of attention.
It is also hard to maintain respect for a sport that gives favour to one team (well 3 actually) over its other teams. Why should the so called expansion clubs have favourable treatment. I'm sorry, I've been with Wakefield through thin and thinner and we still can rustle up 6000 to 8000 fans for an RL cup semi or a big home game, in spite of 40 yrs of disappointment and a shoddy ground. SL, bury us at the peril of our sport. WTRLFC will be here long after the Welsh & London fiascos have gone. It is a disgrace that Crusaders were given preference over Widnes last time, as it will be to see them there again when we are axed, as I am virtually certain we will be.
So I understand the disillusionment with the game, but I will support Trinity come what may as my love for the club supercedes my anger at the perversion of our game by the lot in charge at the moment.'"
One of the best posts I've read in ages - straight from the heart !! And sums up the feelings of a lot of true RL supporters. When Cats sent Cas down in 'that' final game there was some pretty unhappy fans on one side - but nobody said it wasn't fair. The problem today is that nobody dare rattle Red Halls windows because they appear to have long and vindictive memories.

IMO, he never got over the stinging "Peter Sutcliffe's beard" attack. And he probably never will...

I think most RL fans believe this is what will happen anyway.

| Quote: Walrus "Is everyone really upset by this?'"
What I'm upset by, is the eager acceptance by the RL community that WTW are a shoe-in to make way for Widnes. I'm particularly upset by the fact that the RL media, such as it is, have been complicit in creating that perception and have peddled it at every opportunity. I'm also mildly piqued at the glee with which they seized upon the mythical '£50 million deal' that RW invented - they did that because it added weight to the view that we are for the chop, not because it had any basis in fact or was in any way demonstrable as anything other than a PR stunt.
Perception, they say, is reality; it could be argued that a self-fulfilling prophecy has been created, in which the whole RL community has been persauded to accept that we're not worthy to sit at the tope table so that come June, the RFL's job is made significantly easier.
None of the above is the fault of the RL Express, but their 'joke' was poorly conceived, tactless and ill-advised, given the effect that booting a club out of SL will have on peoples livelihoods, the local economy and the development prospects for young, amateur players in the district. A poor show.
