Reading this article its clear to me that the RFL will not be taken for fools this time and will "probably " reject the next offer, I doubt they will pay the wages and this time next week i fully expect them to have gone to the wall. Sounds like some kind of plan is a foot www.sportinglife.com/rugby-leagu ... s-continue Say goodbye Mr Fish............. He's waving...

Bradford Newco it is then.

I can't see what difference anything makes - whoever takes them over (paying debts or starting from scratch) will start life in Super League anyway. It's a lot of pontificating for nothing. I bet Gerry Sutcliffe and his consortium take it on as Bradford Newco and the RFL will spin it saying that this bunch are a wholesome group and that they'll give them a helping start by planting them "back" in SL.

Meanwhile, their neighbours Fax will continue to dominate the league below but won't (sadly) get their attendances above 3,000.

Don't you mean start to dominate because you can't continue if you haven't started although you have got the first of the 3 trophies this year but don't remember you dominating anything last year

So you reckon they'll start to dominate, then ?

I hope not we have won the league over the last couple of year and hopefully we will do again so I believe we have dominated this league (although little rich see it differently ) but sport is sport and when your at the top people want to knock you off and if we have done it there's no reason why another club cannot do it and take it away from us

Daryl Powell's dummy is being shared around the delightful town of Featherstone I see.

To be fair I don't think anyone is dominating and that's what makes it exciting.

Fev have been the best side this past couple of years but have not dominated but neither have Fax. Thats what makes this League so good. Batley, Sheffield, Leigh could all easily make it that neither Fax or Fev make the GF this year.

2010 RAIL CUP Batley GF Halifax
2011 RAIL CUP Leigh GF Featherstone
2012 RAIL CUP Halifax

Be great to put Halifax next to Halifax for 2012 though wouldn't it and do the double to mark 25 year aniversery since tbe challange cup win!!

That would be out of this world!!!

With Halifax next to the 2012 GF - 3 out of 6 titles available over the 3 year period. Domination?? - hell yeah!!!!

And hasn't it been great??!!!!

To be honest I think if we win the league this year, then that can be deemed domination.

Anyone can win a cup game on their day. Being consistent over a full season is a different story.

Problem with our game is we reward these team who are better at cup/playoff rugby. Leeds Winning Grand final last year was a perfect example.
