| Maybe they felt bad for the 2 men and their dog that used to watch Celtic and felt they needed to start a new team to satisfy their needs for rugby league!  |

There arent enough junior players? I thought there junior set up was thriving. One of the good points of having the Crusaders down there. So surely there are enough juniors to go round. Unless you know different? |

Don't believe all you read its all PR spin to justify them being there. Remember its far easier getting young lads to play sport than keeping them at 16+ |

That dosent make sense. You claimed that there are not enough juniors to go round two clubs in Wales. But now your saying it can't be proved? |

Funny how you get more answers when you put your sponsors hat on!
The latest:
Northern Rail fixtures will be released early next week
Championship fixtures might not be released until mid january
The reasons being that the RFL are awaiting sound assurances from clubs in "all three leagues" that they can meet their commitments" I guess this would mean Crusaders, Keighley and Wales United.
THe words brewery, up and p15s spring to mind

whether or not Wales have enough young players to make up a 2nd team wedged into the Championship, how the hell will they survive on im sure will be poor crowds.
A SL team struggled every 2nd week to get 2000 so how will a team of young lads, no "star" names etc get by week by week?

I meant the numbers of players that they quote playing RL in Wales cannot be proved either way and even if they were anywhere near the figures mentioned it is only a window at a certain time when they have been pumping money into sport and use RL as a cash cow.
It proved nowt, to me its the open age players that count as proof and how many amateur open age clubs play RL in Wales?? |

The football world cup starts on 11th June 2010, in South Africa.
The fixtures for this are released later this morning.
We start our next season in February 2010 and WE STILL do not know the fixtures.
I e-mailed the RFL last week to ask them when we can expect the fixtures being published. Guess what ?????? NO response.

A couple of other people on other forums have also stated mid-January. It does worry me a bit though that a team can 'made' and thrown in to the comp in about 6 weeks flat. Surely that's not enough time for sound planning? And what players are available at this time of year? |

Sad that a club potentially dying is, this could be good news for us as if they do put Widnes in SL (if thats what they are saying) then it would take away one of our main rivals for the next Licencing bid PLUS it also puts a nail in the coffin for a SL club in Wales and potentially a huge dent in any future plans for the expansion of RL into non RL areas.
Sorry Crusaders fans, well not that sorry being honest never agreed with you lot being in SL anyway, but a club growing organically and living within its means from Championship 1 - like London Skolars is the way forward.

No and neither can I prove that the figures quoted are untrue either.
Your point is that you question what I am saying so you accept the figures with 'blind faith' then???
I don't, PR is all about spin, I could go out if I had the money and get loads of kids to play a sport with the right marketing, its keeping them that is the hard part, Moms and Dads push their little Johnny or whatever to play sport when they are little and do things with them until they get to about 14 or 15, then they seem to stop as the kids want to play on their Wii or can't be bothered any more. |

Fax have an interesting tie first up, and it isn't on sky. The reigning champions might be though.
