Damn expansionists!!! Books should have been thrown. Licences revoked.



Personally, I think that Crusaders were rushed up to SL and are now paying the price of that rush to expand the game. They'd have done better giving them another 3 years in the championship to build their brand and expand interest in the game into Wales.

It would take a lot longer than 3 years....

it's criminal that Widnes didn't make it in 2009 at the expense of the welsh lot - it's done nowt for the game,only made it look more amateurish and more badly run than ever

Nowt new there then is there.

quite,that's the problem nothing seems to change - maybe we need the Will Carling approach ie a big name player to call the RFL a 'bunch of old farts' to get things changed ?

I just think they should have been thrown out of superleague and their place given to Widnes.

I'm afraid you've broken RLFANS AUP Rule #1: Any concrete evidence which is submitted by a user that ridicules a barbaric post must be immediately dismissed and ignored by all concerned.

Again the RFL make themselves look like a bunch of idiots (I can think of better adjectives) every other club that has gone into admin has been docked the points equivelent to 3 games whatever league they were in.



The RFL have signalled their intent, so much was made of the Cru getting the playoffs this year, 4 pt deduction gives them the chance again this year great publicity for Sky (who are our paymasters).



Time for the RFL to tell the truth Sky want Cru, Cats and Quinns in at any cost, and they will sacrafice any other club for this except the topSL clubs.



As for some of the Cru fans coming on here giving it we have been punished with our point deduction get a life.

I was going to post more but came to the conclusion that sanjunien's posts are (hopefully) tongue in cheek.

Why would Sky want Wakefield? What is idiotic about trying to secure the most money possible for the game?

Not only are championship clubs given a usual 3 win deduction...they have less games to make the ground up...the RFL are pathetic
