I AM A SUPPORTER OF CELTIC CRUSADERS AND ALL THINGS EXPANSIONIST.
Why, when went to the trouble of typing in a humorous "Iechyd Da" subject topic, do I find my fully supportive thread for all things Celtic Crusaders moved "elsewhere"? eVEN WORSE, YOU CHUCKED ME IN WITH THE KNUCKLE DRAGGING FLAT EARTH LOT

Power gone to your head ]
welcome to the wonderful world of Superleague outside the M62.
HERE ARE A FEW THINGS YOU WILL NEED TO PREPARE FOR OVER THE COMING YEARS.

You don't deserve to be in SL! This comment normally comes at the start of a thread, when that thread occurs during the school holidays, or by page three of a thread where the flat earth brigade give up trying to use facts to win an argument.
Widnes/Leigh/Halifax (delete as applicable) get bigger crowds than you! This comment normally comes at the start of a thread, when that thread occurs during the school holidays, or by page three of a thread where the flat earth brigade give up trying to use facts to win an argument.
The RFL have bailed you out thousands of times! This comment normally comes at te start of a thread, when that thread occurs during the school holidays, or by page three of a thread where the flat earth brigade give up trying to use facts to win an argument.
You're just a team full of Australians! As above, but also tinged with a certain amount of Jealousy that you have been given a few years to catch up with their club, who've had over 100 years to develop, but still pay pensions to Australian has-beens!

Now I have only started off with these few, but believe me there are many more, so feel free to PM me if you need help with any others.

Keep it tidy

You don't deserve to be in SL! TRUE

Widnes/Leigh/Halifax (delete as applicable) get bigger crowds than you! Can't argue with you there mate. TRUE

The RFL have bailed you out thousands of times! TRUE. They will, until they give up the ghost. Unless they realise their mistake a lot earlier and move your club, whilst still solvent, to St Helens to clear their massive debts.

You're just a team full of Australians! TRUE

So you hit the nail on the head on all counts. Well done.

Whether you believe we deserve to be in SL or not we are. Plain and Simple as that really.

The rfl think we deserve to be in and they are the ones that make the decision that counts.

Now we'll take our team full of Aussies, hopefully finish the season strongly and make a few changes end of season and on to Super League we go.

Why bother with this season at all? Doesn't matter where you finish your still in super league. Lets face it none of the current team would figure in a super league starting 13?

I think JD said he is keeping the nucleus of the squad together.

If that is the case surely the team will want to win something while still together if they know they won't be together as a group after this season.

if you build it they will come the thread that is

£££££££££££££££ prize money if we win the thing.

Plus winning it would shut the flatcappers as we would have got into super league anyway had there not been licencing.

Sorry, I had to change the title of this. It annoys me lol.

The phrase is "iechyd da" and it translates as "good health" but is customary translated at cheers.

Got that off my chest so now you all know.

Diolch.

cheers mate

wow a welsh person that can speak welsh thats stranger than a welsh super league team

Beautifully set up, and with a decisive finish.

Wonder what SL will be like in 20 years time......

Will it include TOLOUSE OLYMPIC RLFC; HIGHLANDERS RFLC; DUBLIN PRAWNS RLFC; MOSCOW MULES RLFC; ATHENS SPARTENS RLFC; KIEV COSSAKS RLFC; KAZAN TARTERS RLFC and even SERBIAN ASSASSINS RLFC and RHEINLAND IRONMASTERS RLFC and even poor old WIDNES & LEIGH LOSTBOYS RLFC in a two conferance 24 team set-up forming a real 'Pan-European' Superleague comp.....

What a choice for away travelling RL fans....

Mind you will be either playing for a team in the Heaven League or - though hope not - in the Hell League by then. Tough expect the 'Whippet & Flatcaps' fans will still complain that the RFL has ruined our 'great game' by allowing all this unfettered expansion outside their 'home towns'. Nowt change.....

One does have to admire the classic simplicity of the perfect one two.
