'Fax fan in Stockport: The jewel in the ring of Manchester

Re: Bulls : Sat Dec 07, 2013 9:53 am  
This is how you run a club in order to get a Suoer League franchise?

And people still praise Richard Lewis. It was ENTIRELY his responsibility to make sure HIS system contained checks and balances BEFORE preaching to other clubs outside Super League that they weren't somehow good enough.

Disgusting.

The disgusting thing is they are considered "iconic" cos they were successful in super league. What's completely ignored is they did it with money that wasn't theirs that is never gonna be paid back.

Then fans of championship clubs were slaughtered for saying the RFL bought Odsal to prevent administration and that fans were mugs for chucking £500K into the black hole. The arrogance from super league was staggering. Any non SL club would have been allowed to disappear. Double standards - you can keep Super League

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

I've posed the question on the VT, that without a ' complete competition financing TV deal ' licencing/franchising is unworkable in british sport?

Not forgetting the way Fax's application was termed as ' speculative ' when they were forced to justify their actions due to their own poor management

No wonder we have club owners questioning the sports administration

Re: Bulls : Sat Dec 07, 2013 10:39 am  
Led me to believe that the applications of those clubs outside Super League were thoroughly checked but those of clubs in or deemed necessary to SL were not checked, just to avoid embarrassment. I give you Crusaders, Bulls, Wildcats, Reds and Tigers. Anyone speaking out was duly warned and insulted in the press.

Brilliant system eh? I think licensing, if administered correctly and being in place for correct and sporting reasons would be great.

Instead, we get this shambolic mess overseen by incompetent, blinkered buffoons!

Didn't we get battered by Smokey and his gang for saying such when the system was introduced Mr Bug?

In my opinion the best amateur club in the world

All I have to say is well done Richard Lewis CBE for bringing in licencing. :wink:
(God knows how he got the CBE.)

The more you hear about it the worse it gets. Why would any club want to join the corrupt mess that is SL at present? The most disgusting aspect of the whole bulls fiasco is how they screwed their own fans of £500,000! It stinks.

I've suggested many times the focus of the Championship Clubs should have been building themselves and the competition by working collectively for financial susstainability
