I have followed this great game for 20 odd years now and feel that, without doubt, the game has never been in such a dishevelled state.



The sport destroying parasites at the Rfl are top think and/or stubborn to notice this.



YES THEY MIGHT BLAME THE ECONOMIC RECESSION BUT THIS IS NOTHING BUT A KOP OUT.



The fact is that the games image is at an all time low and the floating supporters, derided on here maybe by game obsessed folk, are extremely important to the sports finances and are being driven away by the failed licensing system.



The game is suffering at ALL levels and in years to come this chapter of English rl history will be one to write off.

lol

Cheer up, that's how I used to feel too, but Smokey pointed me the the RFL's strategic plans, and now I see they have everything under control. It's all part of a brilliant master plan, probably.

Compared to the 1970s and 1980s now remains a Golden Age.

Nurse! He's got out again!

Not long before the clocks go forward.

Good thread this.

Darkest days were 1981. Thrum Hall toilets had no lights and the smell? Sheeeeesh, the smell. Now, we have lighting. We have pineapple cubes. We have goddamn enamel sinks with running taps and hot water!!! We may not be in the top flight anymore but we are hygenic. These are golden times.

You dont actually contribute much do you ?

Well they are nice and clean , maybe because nobody is using them

It was considerably more thoughtful and considered than the post made by the OP.
