So uncle Ken tipping in a million a year is ' OK '

, Mr Hughes at Quinbroncos , over a million a year , Salford ? , Bradford ? , Crusaders as was ? , even your good selves needs input from Mr Moran occasionally , Saints as well

You have no idea

HKR somewhere between 1 and 2 million lost in the last 4 years. Good job they have a backer prepared to stump up the above.

What a strange thing to say.

If you want to be part of the 'grammar-police', you may want to do a bit or research beforehand.

Matters not that we are NOT looking for any handouts just an advance on payments that will fall due to us in the coming season by the RFL.

Yes it is okay, as long as they're happy doing it. But theres no point sitting at your little table resenting them for it. If uncle Ken dies and Huddersfield can't be self sustaining they'll soon find themselves back at your level, its the way it goes. But moaning for 3 years about how it isnt fair because no one will do that at Leigh just gets tiresome: even by your standards

In another post you refer to someone else's bad grammar and slag off the poster, telling them to get back to their Y5 text book.

Here, someone else pulls you up on your infantile command of the English language and since they know more than you then they must be an old codger.

You also generalise, showing genuine prejudice, about the population of a town. Poor. Uneducated. Stupid. Is this really acceptable behaviour? Even for a child?

Im a busy person, I run RLFans in the background while at work for a bit of fun and made a little mistake, easily done and I acknowledged that. Its actually a very common mistake to make that one in particular and I should have known better. Is ol Fred denying he's at a mature stage of his life?

However not knowing the difference between a statement and a question is a crime and gramps should get his old cuffs out.

Its not uneducated, I just tell you people the truth you don't like hearing. Leigh is two or three small village districts stuck together by a tiny town centre in Wigan. Its no wonder you can't find a rich backer within that lot. Sad but true.

Tell you what, having spent the past 5 minutes being completely wound up by the SL muppets on the Virtual Terrace, I've come to the conclusion that it makes complete sense to let Super League get on with their own cock ups and hopefully the Championship clubs to work together at a much higher level than previously so that we're best placed to carry on regardless when the house of cards collapses (ask why Super League, the Challenge Cup and World Club Challenge are all without sponsors for next season).

Since you're so intelligent I assume you know what a rhetorical question is so I won't bother to explain why the original grammar was in fact perfectly correct whereas yours... Well, the least said...

And bad grammar isn't a crime, whereas publicly stated bigotry is verging on it.

I have worked in Warrington all my working life and have to say, I find it all rather similar to where I live, apart from the fact that Warringtonians seem to think it's a lot better than it is. Obviously, none of the districts has any strong identity so your villages find it easier to identify with a central town club than do Leigh which is a small town with a strong sense of heritage.

I agree that the odds of finding someone wealthy for us are longer by dint of a smaller populace but that is not all.

The odds are further lengthened by the fact that circumstances are not attractive to all but the wealthiest backers.

You'd disagree with this last statement? (Question mark - indicates question. This could be rhetorical, but it isn't - so please do answer).

What are you twittering on about it was Paul who had a go at your lack of understanding of grammar not I, you really should get that paranoia seen to before it results in something serious.

they've not got a clue whats going on have they.

He's so childish its beyond belief.

Also, anyone who thinks Chris Bridge is world class is away with the fairies!

PMT and paranoia - i wonder how many tabs he takes in a day.

You do realise that if the guardians of the game were actually capable of expanding the professional game into big cities beyond the M62, as they intended, then Warrington may eventually find their place in the North-West Counties League playing their local derbies against Leigh, Widnes etc?

I'd be a bit more grateful, and a lot less condescending if I were you.

I did not say that at all.
You said that Matty Blythe had improved beyond the level where he was a strong option for Warrington. I said that he wasnt in Bridge's class and as soon as we had two or even one fit centre on the park he wouldnt get a look in, which is exactly what happened.

FWIW Bridge is probably the best British centre in SL and has many attributes of a world class player but injuries have taken their toll and he lacks the size or pace anymore to be truly world class.

I would agree, however I also believe the current system in place is the ideal solution in todays climate. Its not perfect but not many sports can afford to relegate from the top flight to a completely part time comp. It is still possible regardless of what you claim to find a wealthy backer ala Widnes or Barrow, they just have to be patient and effective as opposed to throwing all their money at a first team.

BARROW? why whom is their 'big backer'?

Ol banned man.
His ethics were all wrong but he still had financial clout to take barrow from division 2 to the Chp trophy, albeit illegally. He was still a wealthy backer

when it comes to how other clubs operate in exactly the same way

So you agree that breaking the rules of the game is Ok to achieve well.. saying where Barrow are now - NOTHING?
And what other benefits? did he gave Barrow a successful reserve side or even an u18's side so they would have players coming through for a couple of years at least? answer NO he put all, his financial eggs in the one basket and he dropped them and he could very well have broke the club, he has certainly damaged their reputation if not that of the whole of RL, and that is a role model other RL clubs should adopt??? you know I was thinking that some parts of (just little snippets that is) some of your posts were actually quite well thought out (behind all the juvenile ageist and comments about our town) but now well yes now I am convinced you really are in danger of breaking rule 1.4 of the AUP.

Can I just point out the contradiction here



So you are praising him for ' financing all his money at the 1 st team ' , then stating they shouldn't throw all their money at the 1 st team , ? , make you mind up

Your posts are getting increasingly bizzare , i'd suggest you knock off the drugs

As Little jonny said when his teacher asked why he was a Widnes fan , " because my mother and father are Miss " , so what if they took drugs and stole things ? , " then I'd be a Warrington fan Miss "

This joke is courtesy of Chris Dalton , Widnes mod

Its not a contradiction at all you've misunderstood because under the CURRENT system which is what I was in fact praising Barrow got where exactly? Nowhere, their application wasn't considered as they didnt meet the minimum requirements set by the game. But one things for sure, they weren't scratching round debating how they could pay their players.

Regarding the sugar daddy comment, many a time on the VT you've said that in the modern climate you really need a sugar daddy to prop up the clubs. Its not ideal but, exactly as I said about three pages ago, thats the reality.
Rightly or wrongly I believe you to be envious of clubs in a more fortunate position than Leigh yes.

What ARE you going on about gramps?
I mentioned that even at Championship level people with large sums of money are willing to put into their RL club despite these unmovable restrictions you think the RFL are tying you down with.. then you start blabbering on about the problems of Barrow.
No one cares what he did or didn't do, the fact was, as stated previously people with money.... are willing to put into RL below SL level.

Wow.. that wasnt so tough now was it

No misunderstanding at all , you contradicted yourself , dont pretend you didn't , your credibilty is low enough as it is

You also have a very blinkered look Dico of rugby league ,its disappointing
