Well I'm going to put my thoughts I'm appalled at the decision to allow Underbank to postpone the fixtures at the start of the season and to boot blame us for calling it off in their local rag!!
You are probably correct about the results as we are struggling with injuries and other stuff but will field a team when we play them soon. Had we played them at the beginning of the season when things were looking a bit better for us, who knows what the result would have been?? Personally I felt a lot more optimistic then than I do now
If everyone played the Underbank card at the start of next season it would make a total mockery of the starting of the season, but why not everyone do it if it works for them and they get to finish near the top of the league.

Your on drugs aren;t you

No didn't like their attitude but they did have a point about the league, even if they were hypocritical, Underbank would have been chucked from the NCL if they'd tried anything like this

All the clubs should make their concerns known to the people running this competition. Things like this have been happening for way to long.

One of the worst part of it all is the cheek Huddersfield had to put a presee release out saying that it was Gateshead that couln't raise a team. Are the RFL aware of this??

Whats the point?

the people in charge won't do bugger all. i guarantee it.

I think it is disgraceful if a team has deliberately postponed a match to wait until they get a stronger side. If this is proven to be correct then Featherstone and Gateshead should get the 3 points and the scoreline should be given as 30-0 to each team. Underbank should also be hit with a heavy fine, stripped of 10 competion points and they should have to play both games in 2010 against Featherstone and Gateshead away from home as a penalty and a warning if it happens again they will be kicked out. The RFL needs to take a heavy stand and I think the other clubs in the league need to take a stand together to fight this as it is a blight on the game and if the league is to gain credibility and continue to grow action needs to be taken now and the RFL must show an interest in this competition.
