Hudgell is bang on if more spoke up from other clubs and refused to pay any fines for doing so what else would they do we all have a right to free speech or arn't we a democracy anymore all fans and clubs want is consistency on and off the field then nobody would feel the need to speak out

You are right in your view but you are also wrong in that it does actually happen that way unfortunately.

Surely it's a conflict of interest a judge or a barrister aren't allowed to sit on a judgment if they have any connection to the Person up in court it should be the same for the RFL Panel. I have just looked on the RFL web site and the panel has 3 members on a rota basis George Fairburns name is not among the panel rota shown for January to May 2014 it is the same people and mixtures of ex player Icram Butt Danny Sculthorpe Graham.

Hide on the grassy knoll?

Give the order to sink The Belgrano?

My friend Lee was at some of those parties and everyone knew that Minister Flowers had a penchant for a bit of Columbian marching powder and a delicate young thing.

Neil is quite right about the decisions being made before you even get in there. The onus is on you to prove you are innocent and not for them to prove you are guilty. If you have different video angles of alleged incidents they won't let you use them. They won't accept scientific evidence. You can't use previous incidents to highlight why you think an incident should be a lower grade or not considered at all.

Its not worth appealing as you have to put up an extra £300 before the appeal starts and if you lose (which, being from Hull you will) then you lose the £300 also.

The whole of Red Hall needs a shake up, they should also relocate to central Leeds so that players could get the train in. The stately house of Red Hall is very impressive but hardly easily accessible to all.
