Celtic rumour : Fri Jul 03, 2009 1:39 pm  

On a couple of boards there are rumours that Celtic have gone into administration but the RFL are urging them to keep it as low-profile as possible. Could there be any truth in this, as there are a couple of rumours going about that Fax, Widnes or even Barrow could be in SL next season. Personally, looking at performances etc. i'd like to see Fax, but maybe that's because it'll be another fixture close to home.

That's pretty tragic if its true.
Are the RFL stepping in to help?

With such a wealthy backer keeping them going.. surely it has to be rubbish?

Looks like total cobblers to me.

For them to go into administration they have to go to court.

If that was the case it would be easy to check.

Well hoping for a good game tonight versus The Wire. Also bought extra tickets for next week against Salford. Mind you all season someone has been spreading rumours of closure. Actually most attendances this season have been good.

Good match tonight but wrong result. When Wakey's match was called off the rumour mongers were at it that everyone thought the club had gone bust. Same people were on about it when we were on about it during the league 1 and two divisions. There were 3231 at the game, and that's with all these rumours. I wish people would leave the sniping alone and allow the club to develop.
