Halifax Very Impressive : Fri May 01, 2009 7:33 am  

I was very impressed by Fax last night, they look like a super league team, i bet your club wish now they hadnt vted to accept franchising. I do think however that Dary Powell who is a very astute man will be working out a game plan to get you next time

Are you saying that Powell ( or DARY as you call him ) didn't have a plan to win this particular game ? His best bet is to ask the RFL if he can bring James Child on the bus when they come to the Shay, unless we get you in the next round of the cup after we leather your next door neighbours next saturday on blue & white day in tiger town

120% sure there was a vote by all the clubs in the RFL and the only club to vote against Franchising was Featherstone Rovers, an absolute disgrace and total lack of ambition,

I think you'll find there was no actual vote For or Against Franchising. I was at the National Leagues Away Day when the Vote was for the the RFL Board to come back with recommendations for the best way forward for the Leagues.

Next thing we know, Fat Man and Robin had announced that there was a unanimous vote in favour of Franchising!

The NL/Championship Clubs were conned.

There was a vote even though as you say it was confusing, it most definatly was not unanimous as Rovers are on record as voting against
