The men in charge of our sport - who are they? : Wed Jul 27, 2011 11:28 pm
In the wake of the latest 'controversies' that appear to have angered many involved in our sport - from players, to fans, to club chairmen, isn't it time that we examine the credentials and CV's of the men from the RFL charged with crucial decision making and the future of RL in this country. What has Nigel Wood ever achieved in this sport, and what background can he boast that makes him a suitable high-level administrator?
Who is this Ralph Rimmer guy? What makes him suitable for the position he occupies? I'm aware he was involved with the Huddersfield Giants, but what elevated him to his current position of power?
And finally, to Mr.Lewis. Formerly involved with the sport of tennis, what achievements in that environment afforded him his role at the pinnacle of UK Rugby League?
This isn't an attack on their abilities, by the way. I'd just like to know how appropriate their occupation of key positions within this sport really is.
