Time for ALL championship clubs to stick together. Pull out of the twinning arrangments en masse. We have enough players between us to help each other out.

CALL TO ARMS, they won't like it up 'em

Not all Championship clubs are against it.

IF it remains, then the non twinned clubs should be allowed a higher salary cap than the twinned clubs to keep us competitive... yeah, it smacks of self interest, but sod it, thats what rugby league in this country is built on.

Bet their reasons are nothing to do with young fringe players development though. Swinton only had a squad of 17 before they 'signed' 5 players from wire thus allowing up to 10 wire players. Don't care what they say about the 5. I reckon they are still wire players.

Had a look at the Border Agency website and there is a section headed Frauds ,Tricks and Scams , made me wonder if someone "dobbed the RFL in" .

After 9 days of total farce (no other word for it) its great to see that at least one Championship owner has not lost the plot. Hope more start to show that kind of leadership so the 'RFL' don't think its a isolated opinion.

Totally agree, however Mr Steele is not the owner he is a director of the board.

Keighley now in bed with Castleford after getting whupped at Batley.

I was planning to miss all away games at paired clubs. Now after more than 20 years following Keighley I can't bring myself to go to Cougar Park. Looks like one of the few times I'll see my team play this season will be at your place.

I hope you make your feelings known to the Keighley Club, perhaps you should also write in to the League Express, Martyn Sadler who is rarely critical of the RFL has been quite vocal on this Dual Reg farce on twitter these past couple of days.

Keighley were originally one of the clubs along with Us, Leigh and Fev who were adamant they wouldn't go down the DR route, quickly changed their tune now though

Its a disgrace hope they all get thrashed by teams who have not gone down this rout, even fev

Re: Hunslet Rhinos- The feeder club! : Sat Feb 09, 2013 9:27 am  

It's tough now, we are even wanting Fev to win matches.

Well done to the Fax board for putting their feelings out there.
