I would want proof that they were told they cannot approach a player. As much as i do not like the RFL i cannot see them putting themselves in a posistion like that with club, Its open to legal matters then isn't it ?.



I think its probably just Hear-say or the players were under contract and therfore unapproachable.

When has that stopped the RFL?



They also announced several months ago, despite not having seen a single licence application, that one club would be removed from SL in the coming round of franchises and one would be elevated. In so doing, they let us all know that the whole process of setting (fluid to suit the circumstances) criteria and appointing an 'independent' assessor to judge the applications is a total sham.



The problem with any legal challenge is that the clubs are too skint to mount any action and if they did, they'd be frozen out forever. Also, there is very little outcry when the RFL behave like this, since very few people care about RL. If this were football, it'd be all over the media.

no chip at all, just the truth ... prove me wrong



but we've run our club on 25 grand a year from the RFLfor the last 15 years and not been as deep in it as you are, how much did you get for the last three players you've just got rid of by the way ? we got 175k for our last two, we own our own ground and the 18 acres behind it, no chip at all ...... just a ferkin big grin, super league .... you can keep it, it takes you up the creek, but you'd know that wouldnt you

You have a MASSIVE chip and then try to put the boot in afterwards.



Prove these assurances you are bleating about in the first instance. I'm waiting .....

You must own half of Ponty then

when wakey entered the super league after winning the first division, the SL were not forthcoming with any money for the promoted team, hence a payment fron FASDA to help their move upwards, somewhere in the region i believe of 150-200k, with assurances from the trinity board that they would fight the corner and vote with any motions put up by the lower leagues ...... of course this bit was forgotten, as you seem to have concerning the payment from FASDA



sat here mate, no chips at all, a smug grin on my face, and enjoying every minute of it



and chissit mate, surely you have a better come back than that, half of ponte ? trinity would be happy to own half a yard at your ground at the minute



looking forward to the derbies for the next few years .... our home games will be where we've always been, yours will be..... where ?

I'd prefer not to have your sort on here now, if you'd please. And that is stated with due consideration of what the swear filter will not let me say.

Ah, so thats your proof. [iYour say so?!! [/i













Jog on lad, and take your rather pathetic petulant snipes with you.



Thanks very much!!

thought you lot didn't want superleague anyway, so whats the problem?

Saw the thread title and thought it was about the Elephant & Castle. Went in on Friday night to watch Hull V Whinos game and

no tv's, no big screen, no SL being shown, must not have paid their subs
