And I only stated more pertinent ones

Plus they've got the Manchester location on their side.

Salford havent recruited well at all...they are all nearly past it and they was bloody awful at MM......As for Wakey....they lied on their application to SL about doing ground up..no work done...1 CE lead them up the garden path with money promises and they splashed the cash on his word and this isnt the 1st time they have had money problems......not fussed if they stay or go.

I feel for the Wakey fans,can you imagine what it would be like in that position? Come close ourselves,and its not pleasant.

Definitely feel for the fans though I think a lot of people have lost sight of the fact that by spending so much money they didn't have Wakey have effectively been cheating for quite some time and the ultimate loss of their franchise is justifiable punishment IMO.

Makes you wonder why the rfl got rid of the 50% rule.

Why Wakey then ?
would be justifiable to put Wakey & Crusaders in a hat out and pull one out then, because by your theory 2 clubs have cheated.

Spot on.

That's the overly simplistic argument you hear a lot of Wakey fans pedaling.

Crusaders are a special case and like it or not, we all know it. For the RFL to get the money from sky that they do, expansion clubs such as Crusaders have to exist. So even if it's hard to stomach, it's in every other clubs interest for the RFL to help them to survive. Wakey bring very little to the table other than tradition.

It is not hard for me to stomach, a team has to go down as long as it is not Hull FC I do not particularly care...You posted Wakey deserve to go down because you felt they cheated, I highlighted in that case so did Crusaders.

And I agreed with you but pointed out that it's not a level playing field? Sorry if you took it the wrong way, it was aimed at the Wakey fans who come out with stuff like that when they know full well it's irrelevant.

Not enough clubs with sufficient turnover to spend at or near the cap meant league places were pretty static. In a misguided (IMO) attempt to 'level the playing field' they scrapped the 50% rule so that any club could spend full cap if they wanted to. Barking mad given the previous history of clubs spending themselves into oblivion.

And inaccurate. Neither Wakey nor Crusaders have broken any RFL rules.

Would prefer a trip to wakey than crusaders tbh,but saying that i found the weekend in wales last week top notch.great place,friendly people,decent beer!!
