Cougars are super league bound in 2015.

The current chairman said so and who am I to not believe him?

Are there going to be any teams left in the championship after "the floodgates" open and promotion and relegation return?

Yep, pretty much everyone that's there now.
Even IF they can gain promotion to SL, it's nigh on impossible for and Championship club to make the massive jump to the top 8, so they will be in a perpetual relegation battle to try and retain their place.
The 2 x 12, 3 x 8 structure will prevent any of the Championship clubs (plus the lower SL clubs) from progressing in SL.
As far as the investment in Fev goes, good luck to them but, with a maximum potential of 6500 fans, it's going to be a struggle (assuming they can gain promotion)

Approx what average crowd does Huddersfield need just to cover the rent on the stadium?

Not relevant whilst ever Mr Davy is on board and happy to keep "chipping in".
The supremo at Fev may well be the same but, Cas fans will tell you different.

Typical Nahaboo bluster which will, more than likely, fizzle out.

Proof of the pudding and all that.

It's obvious they are now going to push at that open door next year. Whether they get through it will be another matter. But wads of cash certainly help the process.

Typical Fake Sheik rubbish. We heard all this before at Cas Tigers. He is after something, it could be land or ownership of a club but whatever it is, he is only in it for one thing - himself.

Konrad Hurrell to Featherstone?

Why? Did he hear that their fans will swallow anything?

Only if they get to take a copy of the video back home with them

Ah, the Cas fans appear wondering just 'what they could have won'.

Despite all the warnings of it all being just talk from FN, he has so far come up with all his promised investment which has enabled the building the centre of excellence and other infrastructure projects (very little of it has been used for player recruitment) - and it's not in the form of a loan.

Maybe they should be asking their BOD how they managed to p him off, they might be surprised and angry if they got told the truth..........

You mean rejecting a potential £5 Million investment to build a new stadium. That had to be paid back far too quickly and if not he was going to take it on shares of the club?

When I typed Feisal Nahaboo in Google the first three suggestions were 'complaints', 'conman' and 'court'.

Just saying.

I imagine I am typical of most Cas fans when I say that I had forgotten about feisal Nahaboo, as has the rest of the rugby league world until, right on cue, he pops up with another "what we're going to do/we're the biggest and bestest" statement rather than just going out and doing it.
Good luck, I hope it works out for you, but in no way shape or form would I currently swap places.

He has made the statement on the back of bastian leaving to tell the fans what the plans are..
I'd rather have news like this coming from my club rather than what comes out of a few others..
I don't know where rovers would be without mark Campbell and then feisal came in to add a bit more clout.

It's nice to know that my dream may just not be impossible..

News? You get more detail in a Reuters report - apparently some investors are going to invest some money and are going to buy some players! Basically, an announcement to say that there won't be any announcements for a month, but trust us, even though we've just figured out the value of finishing in the Top 2 this season, we've got it all under control (honest!)

Well let's just see what happens in 4 weeks.
The new coach has to be a popular choice though can't afford to get it wrong again.

Well everything was put in place at featherstne before the RFL decided to add the 500k for the top 2. So actually finishing in the top 2 wasn't initially very important.

The BOD decided to stick with their original plan and see how it went. Unfortunately it hasn't worked out and they cant risk not finishing in the top 2. Investment or not no one throws away 500k.

Maybe we should just just forget this dodgy investment, blow every penny we have and go into admin to get out of our mess like Leigh do. Thats a much better business plan.

If featherstone have the multi million pound investment, which doesn't need to be paid back, what is 500k vs the plan to get to super league (which will pay far more)?

If everything is as good as it's being made out to be, the "importance" of finishing top 2 wouldn't change because of prize money ...

No one gets rich throwing 500k away. Plan was always to aim for SL in 2015. This was supposed to be a transitional season, no Powell no Finn. Signed some quality youngsters etc. Its obviously clear some of the players the new coach signed are not good enough.

Dont care what anyone says. if there is 500k for grabs you take it. If its possible you may miss out you do whats required to make sure you get it.

Fev want to be Full time next season, are developing their ground. No one at fev thinks there is going to be an endless pot of money so 500k is needed.

No one gets rich investing in rugby league. Or sport. And it's not supposed to be making money, because these people don't want their money back supposedly...

The plan for super league 2015 would be more important than top 2 this year, if money isn't an issue, as mystery donors appear to claim

' Like Leigh do ' ?

Care to explain?

If Marc Campbell wasn't at Fev. Daryl Powell still would be.

He couldn't, given Leigh haven't been in administration for over a decade. But let's not let facts get in the way.

As I'm sure you understand, after our Chairman's company was bankrupted by a big failed creditor, we did receive a forward on our central funding. Clearly that money had to be repaid in reduced central funding in future years.

But yeah, we're a model example of how not to run a club
