Unfortunately due to circumstances beyond my and the club's control I will not be posting match photos on the forum this season. This is due to a clampdown on unlicensed photographers at games by the RFL.

Thanks for all the support and positive comments you have given my photos over the last 5 years (even the odd negative comment!!), I'll miss taking them although it will be nice to revert to just being a fan again!

BOOOOOOOOOO. That's a real shame Trace

thanks for all your great past phots

Seems a proper case of taking a sledge hammer to crack a nut.

Meanwhile, The Abbot has a massive fest.

Being saying for ages the pr!cks running the game don't give a damn about fans, just what they can screw us for. Sorry to hear this Trace, I enjoyed looking at your shots.

Thank you

What does it take to get licensed?

I tried emailing the RFL last year about it, but as is pretty normal with the RFL never got a reply. But it seems they are cutting down on the number of licensed snappers, so not much hope there.

I don't see the problem with a club granting permission to photographers within their own ground, I really fail to see what they're gaining from this.

Email Smithy, There must be more information on this somewhere and He should have a copy to hand.

You dont do it for a living do you? I would only hope the club could arange for you to be acredited, best of luck with it, dont give up without a fight.

I was trying to remember his name when I read this, I hope he call by just to confirm the outcome of said fest.

Excellant photos you did Trace!
Thanks !

Thanks Peter

This ban seems utterly pointless. What's it supposed to achieve?

Why would I care? You using prohibited words tickles me more. That comment should if moderated properly be deleted fairly quickly.
