Don't know exactly when the official RFL statement was issued

[urlhttp://www.therfl.co.uk/news/article/29115/rfl-statement-northern-rail-cup[/url

but it looks from the tone of it that there might be a bit of backtracking here !

All might not be lost yet !

Yes matey.

For those who have not signed yet this competition is becoming the Championships Challenge Cup.

Get it signed and I will try to get next years Final back at Blackpool at a reasonable price.

My mate who is Chairman of Blackpool footie will charge our game a reasonable price for the hire of the stadium otherwise he can stuff that pint I owe him.

Done. Have you put this ll the other forums Frank?

Well I spotted it on the Fax Board so I think most fans who read this site will be aware of it.

Next seasons fixtures are usually out at the end of November so if the NRC is to continue we should find out soon enough. Without it it is a very short season for clubs in Championship 1.
