Quote ="MrLoki"Why take it out on Stevo? Blame yourselves for your situation !
To every one else in RL you seem to have took the SL money and never kept any of the promises your club has made for many years !
Think Chairman of Halifax made some good points everyone seems to have missed on this thread.
Stay lucky !'"
Nobody is taking it out on Stevo, the majority are clearly stating what an idiot the man is.
These promises you talk of what were they exactly? When and where are they stated? Are they real or media perceived?
Why is everybody saying we are the lucky ones?
Why are we any luckier than say Harlequins or any of the other Grade C clubs? Are you privy to our or any other of the 'C' clubs applications, lets not forget a week or so before the announcement the RFL were saying what our community set up was second to none, in fact if memory serves they went as far to say that is what clubs should be using as best practice. A good point that has been missed by everybody including the Halifax chairman.
As for Halifax they have had their own share of financial problems, the last time they graced super league they spent more than they were allowed and as a consequence history shows them as the only club to be relegated with 'ZERO' points. They have been in administration twice that I can recall. They may have a nicer stadium but how long was between leaving Thrum Hall and The Shay being completely finished?
Flaws can probably found in every grade c licence club's application. The reason people such as you and the other misinformed muppets are pointing fingers at us is because the media said so. You have no factual basis for anything you are saying. The only reason people are jumping on this band wagon is because Crusaders withdrew their application. If they hadn't and we had been given a licence ahead them the majority of RL fans would have been congratulating us and banging on about how they knew RL in Wales would fail.
How many of you who are quick to jump on the 'Lucky Wakefield' band wagon were feeling sorry for Widnes 3 yrs ago, I bet it wasn't many.
Maybe we are lucky or maybe just maybe somebody else is lucky and we are taking the flak because we are perceived as the easy target.
