| Just read this on Rugby League fans forums aparently its in todays RLE
Quote Martyn seems to suggest that Crusaders' debt to the RFL of £700k will secure their place in SL for as long as it takes to repay the debt regardless of criteria and that Nigel Wood's previous involvement at Halifax and his recent alleged fiery argument with Wakefield's Diane Rogerson at a SL meeting are cited as reasons why Mr Wood's judgement might be affected regarding the future of those two clubs. Today's article is the second in the space of a month from Martyn casting doubt over the licensing process which surprises me as I seem to remember he thought it was very much the right path to take when first introduced.
'"
I wouldnt trust that Nigel Wood as far as I could throw him (which isnt far the fat .....person..) doesnt sound good for us though does it? seen as he seems to be the only one at the RFL that does anything.. |

I dont think that matters. If he wants to stick his oar in i am sure he will. |

Crusaders went bust and have reformed with the help of a £700K loan from the RFL just shows how bent Superleague is. They will choose who they want in and who they want out. The thing that really gets to me is that they continue with all the charade of franchise applications when it is all cut and dry.
Yes and I agree Wood is an overpaid big fat lump

yes i read it this morning too. basically he goes on to say that anyone having a vested interest( ie the £700 k that the rfl have invested in crusaders), cannot really claim to be impartial can they.
so who would this panel consist of?

Yes I'm sure he is!
If you remember he went on Bootsnall last March and stated that a Championship team would be elevated to Super League even before they had changed the criteria and had all the problems with Crusaders- seems to me he had made the decision nearly 12 months ago.
IT STINKS!!!!!!!! |

The decision to elevate a Championship club was for the benifit of the Championship clubs , not for the benifit of SL
I would assume if Wakefield do get de-elevated you will be hoping they promise to elevate a Championship club in 2015 also ? |

This is how it all works.
All SL voting needs a majority so at the moment 8 clubs.
Quins, Les Cats and Cru ALWAYS tow the party line 3
Gaz at Leeds and their lass at Hull do likewise 2
Therefore It only takes wigan,wire and saints 3
Hey presto ! you can pass anything you want
Clubs like ours are only along for the ride and while ever there is franchising
the 4 or 5 clubs that actually run our game can basically do whatever they want. |

If it was to benefit the Clubs then surely the best team in the competition would be elevated ie, the best team results wise not any Tom, Dick or Harry that may have a " ground " , sugar daddy or be in a development area.  |

You're confusing 'best club' with 'best first team'.

Maybe slightly harsh but after the recent decision i could imagine why some members of the cabinat would be disliked more than others. |

I'd quite happily tip the lot of them in a shredding machine and feed what's left to pigs or Nigel Wood, same difference.
Sounds harsh but wait 18 months and you'll join me in my sentiment. |

You mean like regular promotion (and relegation), the thing that virtually every British sporting league thrives on? |

I'm getting bored of this but
Name the minor counties cricket champions who've then been promoted to the county championship, or even the counties which have been relegated to the minor counties championship after finishing bottom of the county championship.
