Widnes were failed for being insolvent in 2007; in the 2008 round of licenses.

Wakefield head into the 2011 season insolvent yet were awarded a license.

Its alright just coming out withit and taking it though, something must be done, Cas and Wakey dont have grounds that were promised 3 years ago let alone today.

Just to put things into perspective now. No SL license, Not even a grade C which means our bid must have been rubbish for Wakey and Cas to be above us, No tick for this year ( so far ), No Coach and no idea about Noble.

Marvellous, I hate the RFL with a Passion.

It's time for the club to man up, put it's head above the parapet and take the RFL to task. They can not let this go otherwise the lower leagues will just be disseminated. It's not just Halifax fans who can't believe this, it's the fans of every Championship Club. Unless this is put right the Championship is dead. Wakefield have received a licence by breaking the rules but are allowed to do this because the RFL have no b@lls.

Which rules have Wakefield broken??

Re: Michael Steele... What a ledgend :) : Tue Jul 26, 2011 11:18 am  

How about having a ground up to standard by the beinging of the 2012 season.

Leave Cas out of it. The RFL have made clear that the economic climate has made it extremely difficult to build new stadia and accept that Castleford have made "significant progress" towards the Glasshoughton Stadium, having detailed planning permission to begin building (when we sell WR). Regardless of stadium, Cas will have picked up more points in the system than Fax, having a secure financial management history, a good contribution to the competition, excellent youth development structures and extensive work in the community.
Please don't compare our application with Wakefield's, or yours.

Absolutely spot on Bob and posted something very similar.
Where do we ALL from the championship go now.

Nothing at all against Wakefield but keeping them in after administration and their ground sitution can mean only one thing that their new owner has bribed his way in with a promise of a cash guarantee.
We are in the 17th year of Super League and some clubs have done nothing with their grounds etc.

Of all the decisions to make this is beyond belief, just break any rule you like and it will be okay.
I'm just lost for what else to say.
