I yearn for the day when Mr Creosotes BMI, Colesterol levels and general health means he has to step away, because he ain’t shifting until then. Any man who would kill off the GB Jersey and turn their nose up at the Tri Nations is a lunatic.

On a serious note, BT Sport and others are really putting pressure on BSkyB to up the ante every year, there could well come a year when SL is dropped in favour of pumping everything they have into The Premier League.

For this reason i would hope that RL Clubs outside of SL, and maybe even BARLA have already got their heads together to see if a joined up Sport can be formed in conjunction with some reasonable sponsorship and TV deals. SL will quite gladly let them all die, and shed no tears.

If the dreams of RL fans and owners extend no further than getting a millionaire and a license, the jobs knackered, and its barely recognisable as sport.

And a Happy New Year to you and your Family Norman

I'm sure 2018 will be a good year for RL and Fax fans.No taxis though, I've been teetotal for 30 plus years now, since I met the current Mrs Caroli,she drinks enough for both of us,and Clowns are never off duty.
Anyway maybe I will see you this coming season,I will be at the Shay a few times, a Happy New Year to Hudd Shay and Di,Bentleyman,Fax in Asia, Pellon Boy,Living the Dream,and Greg Florimos Boots,in fact to All Fax fans.
Finally a poignant moment, thinking of my mate Halifaxjohn,I miss you Mate.

A Happy New Year to you too Ian.Indeed let's hope it's a good year for Rugby League fans everywhere, with the exception of Bradford obviously! Up The Fax!

A Happy New Year to everyone from all at Aston Park.

cheers Ian. Happy new year to you, all the Fax fans and the RL family (excluding the RFL hierarchy)

Just to echo the sentiments above I hope everybody on here as a Happy and Prosperous New Year.
Yours in rugby
