Having heard on good authority a nat lg club will go into administration this week....

There aren't any National League clubs.

Who?....... please say Barrow - now that would be funny

Widnes.

In a private project, SOC is building a £2m House in the hill. So, he has two costly pie in the sky schemes. He's chosen to dump the Widnes one.

Barrow ? nah wrong coastline...

you had me going for a moment pal

...... wish the mutants would go under so Viking-mutantman cry`s.

Well I hope it,s not true not least because iressepective of whichever club it would be, as it would mean a 9 team Champ 1, and that is not viable.

I am guessing Blackpool? Hard to believe - why would they go bust now, especially when they have signed some better players...?

I thought we had heard the last of all this

Interesting! But will the reformed club still be playing in the Championship? How far will the RFL be prepared to bend over. I am sure they will come up with yet another crass decision.

But this is more fact than rumour...isn't it?

We all know the RFL will bend over backwards to help them out and keep their expansion dream alive



Another CC example of clubs running before they can walk so they can enter the mythical paradise of SL

Looks like posturing from Gartside to me.

May be RFL can clone Noble and stick him in Gateshead as well to save face

But can they afford to pay him twice.



What makes me laugh is when they say "Celtic Crusaders have appointed...." when it should read "The RFL have appointed......"

Nine point deduction then a la Doncaster.
But which season would it count for ?
We will see.

if there are any points deduction then it would be for the 2010 season as the 2009 has officially ended.

Its unlikely it will work in our favour. Widnes went pop at seasons end, 9 point penalty the following season, not moved down a division.

I wouldn't get any hopes up, if it had been any other club (bar Tolouse of course) then the RFL would let them go to the wall but as its them well....

Speaking as a Donny fan we have been told by the RFL we are in the last chance saloon !
It doesn't seem to be the same attitude for expansion teams.

Get the name of the team changed to Le Donny Hawaythelads Celtic, open a PObox in North Wales, have the Post Office redirect the mail to Doncaster, the RFL will never know, you may even be awarded monies to buy foreign players and keep them full time.

Knowing the RFL, they'll be docked 10 points, to be deducted equally over the next 10 seasons.

if they do go into admin, that officially should mean that their dream of the stupid league 2012 is over
