Were you expecting the RFL to find Crusaders guilty of breaking UKBA regulations, when the UKBA themselves had found them not guilty?'"
Of course they did , they just blamed the players , who obviously are experts on British VISA regulations

That’s the UKBA, the UKBA who blamed the players, The UKBA who said that the players didn’t meet their responsibilities as laid down by the British Government.
Not the RFL.
Though Barnabus has been a little more succint in his explanation.

Yes, its just important that we are clear that the RFL and the club met their responsibilities and shouldered no (in the case of the RFL) or very very very little (in the case of the club) of the responsibility.
Though im sure the RFL never believed the ‘vested interests’ would forget about it, after all, it is an opportunity for you to be negative and do the game down.

| I agree with much of what Smokey is saying, but he'd make it much easier if he didn't keep referring to Maurice Lyndsay.

| Add Castleford to the list of:
=#0000FF "sports clubs, like all businesses, will ultimately stand or fall on the quality of their own management and, while the RFL and its policies cannot always mitigate against some of the decisions taken in club boardrooms"
Smokey, you're running out of clubs lad. Phone Lyndsey

Does anyone know how much of this increase relates to:
a) St Helens moving their home games back from Widnes to Langtree Park
b) Widnes being in SL rather than Crusaders
c) The Magic weekend moving to Manchester?'"
27 rounds of super league watched by 1.8million people is just propaganda even if you include the play offs and the final itself this gives an average gate of 50k.
