Have heard today that the Crusaders look like moving lock stock and barrel to Wrexham where the money man there is Geoff Moss who heads up Elegant Resorts in Chester.
Newport could not raise the cash however they are looking to play three or four games in South Wales however it stills needs Leighton Samuels to sell the shares and the problem is Wrexham are willing to take most of the debt but not pay for doing so
Two are in the frame for a new Championship 1 side in South Wales one being a former director of the Ospreys who has fallen out with them.

Do you think , that if leighton samuels would have GUARANTEED A CASH BOND LIKE Steve O Connor at Widnes offered the rl that he would have walked away as easily as it looks like he is going to? and also ,what if steve o connor put up the cash to buy CRUSADERS move them to Widnes and then change the name . From what ive seen ,its not impossible!!!

rlRugby league needs 'pot of money' to succeed in Wales, says Leighton Samuelrl

RFL a farce it a heartlands sport and top players play for money.They wont get the support as it a football area.RFL give up and pack your bags.If i messed up that many times lifes would be lost.

But crusaders i wish you all the luck though in wrexham. I just feel sorry it has been taken away from south wales.

hmmm.. let me see South Wales has not turned out in numbers like the south of France for Super League Expansion??? who would have guessed that... however much the "northern" game wants & wishes to expand the core & loyal i.e. fan who will pay to see... is located in the North of this Isle. What if Leigh/Featherstone/Widnes or Halifax has been given the same funding & better Visa advice? Crowds better than 4k per home game would have been acheived, simply by by better away support alone, expand yes but small steps, if Wrexham had been the first step then yes a NL1 team 2 years ago would have been a good step.... but now to save face it is regression with Leigh and Widnes within spitting distance its laughable. Maybe a North Wales Wrexham "crusaders" will work in 2/3 time but it may have slowed or severed rugby league heartland (teams) to a slow beat in the process. We all want the game to expand but don't cut off the roots or the tree won't grow....

Hope this venture works as a the RFL have spent a lot of money on the game in Wales

To be honest i do not think the game will expand, as you got too many popular sports such as football and rugby union in other areas.If anything a cumbrian club be more viable, as their a decent interest already, with barrow and whitehaven.To be honest, i think keep to the heartlands, they just not interested in union strongholds.Union has the money now and the rfl can not support all these clubs.That why i think teams with decent attendances such as widnes should be in superleague.Teams such as widnes,leigh,fax would double in attendances if got in.Widnes already have fans from north wales and chester.
