I don't blame them i would have done the same, but it just sums up the RFl no real leadership and always changing the rules and moving the Goalposts to Suite. Nigel wood is the Sepp Blatter of Rugby League an out of Touch A***hole.

I have signed the petition.
The problem is though, the RFL have cocked it up again.
Stand by the decision, legal action from Keighley, reverse the decision legal action from Batley.
It's a shambles.
Why make a decision and then reverse it.
Note to Solicitor Michael Steele, can you get us those 2 points back, can you get us reinstated in the cup and can you give us the trophy that Barra "won" and give us the money.
As I say, what a shambles the RFL are.

The championship clubs should have taken the RFL to court when they first started to wreck the integrity of the Championship and it's clubs

I don't blame them either. Rules are rules and they were broken. Football took the same stance with Legia Warsaw a few weeks back and stood by their decision the RFL should have done the same
