It’s irrelevant, they could have a team full of Mass Murderers, its Red Hall’s expansion utopia.

Get with the programme.

FML sheep shaggers are missing a load of key players

And they've signed Senior on a 2 year deal- so I guess they know they have a franchise- what a farce!!!!!

Tansey is an idiot. Glad we stayed well clear.

I wonder if he repeated his party trick from the infamous night out on Westgate?

Yeah, expel them from the league immediately because a couple of players went out drinking when they shouldn't have. Good one.

Sometimes these events are as a result of underlying problems at the club.
In light of recent story's of players not getting paid and all the rest, that is the shambles at crusaders, fingers crossed!!!!!

7 suspended!

Typical HH bias!

... and up you pop. Like a one eyed popeye.

Tansey has had more clubs than I've had hot dinners. He never learns.

That many??

I agree it was immigrations other year now this they dont bring much to super league anyway

can you really see them losing their licence, since they have signed Keith Senior on a two year deal?

you poor sod have not got gas and electric yet



your a salad muncher

it will be null and void if they go bust again

he could go back to sheffield

or is it now shuddersfax

No but we can dream. After all what do they actually bring to Super League other than a lot of below average overseas players.

And a couple of hundred people who can't get to Widnes?

Even if they hadnt you cant see them losing there license anyway can you? To be fair!

I used to be the first in class every lesson.

...so I could draw Phil Collins on the chalk board.

Would they have suspended 7 players if they had needed the points against hkr to avoid relegation.
I doubt it, so its meaningless just like the fixture.

I really don't get this logic, since when has signing players been any indication of a clubs financial stability. In 2000 Wakefield signed a team of Internationals and were buts within 4 month and we were not the first club to do that.

It isn't, but that's not what he's claiming. It [iis[/i a pretty good indication that the club has been told it will get a franchise. I can't believe for one moment that the ebay medal man would sign a 2 year deal knowing that in 3 weeks time he might just as well have autographed an empty fag packet. Whether or not Crusaders go bust is a separate issue.

I see your point however I read it that people seem to think it somehow indicates Crusaders are financially sound and will survive - and I still think that's what was meant. Crusaders actually getting a franchise is a cert, no argument - in fact has anyone ever argued that?

However I don't see why you seem to think Senior wouldn't sign for a team that may not last when in my mind he clearly has. His motives may be many - he may be thick but I doubt it - he may have received a sweetener to make the risk worthwhile - he may not have recieved any other offers with anywhere near the [upotential[/u earnings this contract offers, so again worth the risk. What I do know is that this point in his career anything is worth a punt to grasp a few more pounds in the pension fund. For me Senior is the kind of high risk player a high risk club will go for, both have nothing to lose.

Just to turn it on it's head and I accept it's not relevant to Crusaders financial stability - can anyone really see Fester commuting to North Wales every other day. I reckon he will be on the sick list near permanently for the next however many years. He may lose any bonuses he has negotiated but it's a nice little earner whilst he builds up to a power seller on ebay
