.....next week now





Its all Leigh's fault - or Gateshead depending on which view you take.



Suspect this afternoon at the RFL went like this



"Nigel, I've got an email asking when the Championship & Northern Rail fixtures are out"



"The what?"



"Championship & Northern Rail fixtures"



"Nah sorry, you've lost me there. Give them the RFU number"



"Erm I think it's our league Nige. It's the one with Halifax in"



"Bloody hell! Are they still going?"



"Widnes are in it too"



"Ah, wondered where we had put them. They like Jehovas witnesses knocking on our door all the time asking to come in. Wish they would take the hint"



"and Barrow"



"Never heard of them"



"Toulouse?"



"S@*@ I forgot we hadn't put them in sooper dooper yet. Pass me that old fag packet and I'll knock some fixtures out quick time. Tell him tuesday and send him a Rhino's scarf in the post!

Thanks for that, hate these mis-leading threads, point!!!

The point is that fixtures which should have been out today are now out next week



Sorry. Didn't realise it was that time of the month

may be the fixtures are late due to a last minute s/l frachise for 2010!



Big Sam has pulled the plug on Celtic Crusaders - Game over for that expansion me thinks.

Big Sam?

I was wondering this point ?

Mr Samuels - The Crusader.

Why whats gone on now.

Where's that cave you live in

I thought Leighton Samuel stopped putting the £££s in months ago

To be replaced by the RFL ...

Still talk of a possible Championship 1 team in South Wales in the League Express this week, a quote from the Widnes MP saying he spoke to Richard Lewis and he confirmed it was been looked into.



Could this be the reason behind the delay in the fixtures been released. 2 leagues of 11 teams this year perhaps?
