| Quote Dico="Dico"I reckon Leeds might rest a few or, sounds disresepctful, take it a bit easy.
When I heard about the Visa things I thought uh oh there's some cricket scores coming but thinking about it they could be 3 results that in the long term could benefit the club.
If those players have had their contracts terminated then the club will probably save about 50k between now and the years end. Add to that its a chance for the coaching staff to see maybe the best 4 or 5 reserve players in action. Sure they'll probably receive three pastings but lets be honest, it's not like youve got anything to play for other than pride anyway.
FWIW i'd be appealing against Mapp and Duggans bans, not seen that much of you but they looked the most handy of the deporteds.'"
Leeds wont rest a few due to the fact that they all had a week of 2 weeks ago due to Challenge cup and will have another week off next weekend due to CC Final, so they wont have any point to rest any of them. 3 weeks in 4 off for some players is abit much in my eyes.
BTW. Leeds by 70

| Quote Rotherham Fev Fan="Rotherham Fev Fan"the comparisons of championship v sl clubs crowds is a ridiculous arguments. Like for like comparisons of paying punters and season ticket holders is a more comparable illustration. Given all the away support sl attracts i would expect crusaders to have a bigger support in sl. They have. But only by a few.
I would expect widnes and leigh to exceed the crusaders crowds this year if they yere in sl.
Facile argument tho.
I still believe crusaders were ill prepared for sl, wrongly included and still remain in a precarious position to continue. Tho i do understand that now in newport, more money is to be brought to the club from other sponsors.'"
I have to say Roth that you are turning into one of the more articulate crtics of our inclusion and have made these discussions a touch above the usual dull back and forth verbal game of rugby union that it turns into almost always. A few more like you and the anti-crusaders posts in this forum might serve some purpose.
Can i ask you where you heard the point about better sponsors for us because of the newport move?

| Oh god yeh I forgot about next week. True, true, still there's bound to be a couple carrying knocks but I reckon Leeds will clock up 50, reckon Celtics backs will be to the wall and they'll make a fight over it for a period with Leeds just being too strong in many depts .

| I take it machine, that your own club's house is in order?
Because I remember that when the season started there were about 24 players who had these problems. It's a well known loophole.
Oh and cheating scumbags is a BIG statement for a little keyboard warrior.

| Quote Grendel="Grendel"Yes well done! Your highest attendance beats our (second) lowest. You must be so proud.'"
I would hold yer horses right there.....you've two more home games yet.
All I was relaying was the poster was giving clearly the wrong impression that we didnt have ONE single attendance greater than your lowest.
We do!
Honestly I would expect ANY club in a higher league to have a greater average than ours. A lot of damage was done in our last season in SL & subsquent seasons.
Plus & it can not be fully defined the removal of P&R has had some effect on attendances. Yes, equally that could be said of Celtic's but I think the effect has been greater on Halifax's.

and who do you support mind?
Its not the fans fault, so you cant take it out on them at all.. Its the RFLs for not checking players paper work correctly at the time of the SL Licenses, and also, the CEO of Celtic Crusaders walked out of the club at the beginning of the season, he stated that "all visa applications were present and correct and that hed done all he can for the club now". So shouldnt he be the one to blame at the present time, for putting in a statement to the RFL of resignationation which states statements, that obviously are not true at this point.
On that note.. you can tell its the school holidays cant you, shouldnt you be practicing that english, because by the looks of it your teachers wont be happy with you.

| You're probably right mate. Just today I'm feeling somewhat combative so came on here where I knew there'd be some cr@p from a few in other clubs.

Yes I do think we brought something to the table , the fact that if you are botton of the table like we were you get relegated simple as. Whereas in your case you will not that is another reason why things are unfair.

Barry, you took a long time to come out from under your stone, where've you been? Given it's the school holidays it's not as though you had detention yesterday and missed all this is it?

How about one of the following? Merthyr Tydfil, Ebbw Vale, Treherbert, Barry, Pontypridd, Cardiff, Cardiff Blue Dragons or Bridgend. On the other hand, someone might realise that expansion clubs need to build on the solid base of amateur rugby league which is exactly what happened in the case of Castleford, Feathersone, Workington and Whitehaven all of which are still with us.

I've been over in Portugal spreading the word around just how good it is to be an Aussie
They don't like you Poms over there do they??
And yes, I had a great time thanks for asking.
However, my original point stands.
Celtic are pretty much finished. Their only hope is that the RFL will *ahem* 'assist' them like they allegedly did with London Harlebroncos
as they seem desperate to expand the game no mateer how stupid they look.
My personal choice would probably be Widnes, although Halifax MAY be able to survive.
The other name being mentioned is Featherstone. I must be honest I had never heard of them and I don't know enough about them to comment.

| You do actually need more than seven players to play in Superleague guys.
The standard doesnt have to be very high, but it's advisable to have 13 actually starting.
Good luck for next season....wherever you may be!!!
