Just sums up rugby league for me and why i have now decided to walk away from it. Its not what you do on the field which counts. The people running the game like Wood (rfl), gallop (nrl) and kazandjian (rlef) are clueless idiots who have ruined the enjoyment of being part of the game. Its now got to the point where it doesnt matter if you win or lose on the field. If your face fits great. If not then tough. RL as a sport is a joke and cant be bothered with the politics of it. Carney is just another clueless idiot involved in the game. RIP rugby league.

Not saying it is an easy thing to do , but the only guaranteed way of getting a SL place is via supporters numbers , it is that that has got Widnes back in , nothing else

No - what got Widnes in was Steve O'Connor. Money talks and security is what the RFL want.

Perhaps if everyone is a "clueless idiot" instead of walking away, you could offer your services?

go and feck yourself. I have set up Rugby league in 2 nations and know the idiots running our game. I have spent many hours and a lot of my own money developing the game. Only to be told they rfl/rlef that they wanted a native running things despite me living in germany 10 years and being the first non german born on my dsds side. I have had personal dealings wirh them and have had enough of this crap. The game is a joke and i cant be bothered with it anymore.

As an aside , do you really want to be in SL next year ? , Widnes with all their resources are making a pigs ear of it , do you really think it would be any better for yourselves

You don't half come out with some carp.

Based on what appointing Betts as coach? Right ok then

With the membership scheme with have already added about 700 to our attendances THIS season... Pretty good going I reckon!

The tone and arrogance in Carney's voice was disgraceful and massively disrespectful to Halifax in my opinion. There's not a problem with him thinking Fax won't get in SL, but there's ways of putting it across for the public. I think there's only 2 ways you'll get in, that is a) by replacing us (obviously I hope that doesn't happen) or b) Crusaders have another financial meltdown. Unfortunately for yourselves (or even Wakefield) I can't see the rfl increasing the league and they've had their masterplan of promoting Widnes come hell or highwater this season.

It isn't exactly going ' swimmingly ' is it , part of the problem is you are focusing too much on next season , instead of just getting on with trying your best this season , it realy needed a " we will be looking at all our options for next season behind closed doors and will not be making any announcements until september , we want the fans to enjoy this season and will be doing all we can to make it a successful one " type of announcement

This lot? THIS LOT?

Don't you mean Halifax RLFC.

The chosen few.
The Forlornhope.
The Anointed ones.

Yes,

But "this lot" never.
