Not 100% if its been mentioned on here before yet... but your players and soon to be players and not very happy with how the club was run on Twitter. They're running rampant! Not 100% but think it was Rhys Hanbury going as far as telling all the fans to find a new club because this one is Sh*t... Madness at the moment

Leave our players be, if they want to run rampant so be it! We'll be lucky if we can field a team next week. The lads have been treated shamefully, those "village people" down at Wrexham are an absolute disgrace.

I agree with them going public with their comments. The clubs really done them and the fans over.

Got to agree with above comments, it would appear that none of the players had a clue, and fair to say they are venting their anger on their twitter sites this afternoon. It is them and their supporters I feel so sorry for, what a sad state of affairs this is.

all contracts are now void and players are free to sign for other clubs apparently.

Keith Senior is not a happy chappie.



A furious Keith Senior led a group of current and future Crusaders
players who vented their anger after the Welsh club’s shock move to pull out of the Engage Super
League.

Crusaders bosses contacted the
RFL on Monday to inform them of
their decision to withdraw their
licence application, less than 24
hours before the names of which
clubs had secured three-year licences for 2012-14 were due to be released.

But the club’s playing staff were
not made aware of the decision until the public announcement from RFL chairman Richard Lewis.

Senior, who had a signed a two-year contract with the club due to start next season, wrote on Twitter: ‘Crusaders have just f***** me over, what a b*****d joke.’

His thoughts were quickly echoed by Crusaders’ current players, who between them described the club’s owners as ‘gutless’, advised fans to support another club and claimed they were owed wages.

Australian prop Mark Bryant said: ‘The owners did not even have the backbone to come and speak to the players about why they withdrew their application.

‘It’s a joke. I’m out of here next year anyway, but (I’m) owed a ton of cash by the club! Absolute disgrace!’

Scrum-half Jarrod Sammut asked: ‘What’s the sentence worth these days for murder? The people running this club have hell to pay!’

Former Leeds and Hull FC full back Jordan Tansey fumed: ‘F****** joke. Looks like a labouring job for me!’

And Welsh youngster Ben Flower added: ‘Don’t know why they’ve withdrawn the licence. All I know is that this has wrecked Welsh rugby league for the future.’

Announcing the news: RFL chairman Richard Lewis


Crusaders chief executive Rod Findlay defended the decision, insisting it would have been unfair to take the club into Super League when they had serious doubts about their finances.

Findlay said: ‘This has not been easy, but after a lengthy and exhaustive examination of the club’s finances, our view is that Crusaders is not sustainable as a Super League club at this stage.

‘We will now sit down with the Rugby Football League to consider our options for 2012 and beyond.’

Wakefield Wildcats were favourites for the chop, but Crusaders’ decision
gave them an 11th-hour reprieve.

Coincidentally, Wakefield host Crusaders on Sunday in their next Super League match.

Halifax were the only club under consideration who were not awarded a licence.

This sums it up perfectly. I feel sorry for both fans and players.

All I can say is good luck to the players and everyone else working at the club for the future

Apart from Jordan Tansey who is a first class tool and has got what he deserved.

not got a bad word for the crusaders fans i have been to about 5 crusaders games and im a wire fan and all the fans are all really nice and i went back plus everytime i went they seemed to win :L players and fans have both been screwed over by greedy men who are in over there heads and should be deeply ashamed

and apparantly 400k in pension payments gone missing...i blame the RFL for this..they should sue the RFL for the cash.

Cannot believe that Moss and Roberts have swanned off on holiday right now! For the players' sake, I hope some asses are kicked. Total joke at management level in spite of the best efforts of the club staff and squad.

All you crusaders players come on down to Rovers we are having a clear out along with the coach I hope, come to a great club one that will look after you Sorry Mr Harris dont think you are up to coaching us though we have vacancies for the following
1 Full Back
2 Wingers
2 Props
1 Hooker
1 Loose Forward
1 Coach (Must know what he is doing)

I am led to believe

I'm sorry for the fans, staff and players of the Crus who have been done over by a couple of con-men posing as owners. As for Mr Harris, he will follow the bloke waving the largest cheque as he's always done.
