oH DEAR OH DEAR

the next installment of the crusaders saga commences..................

My scepticism continues.......

That is a damn shame.

Blimey, not looking good for 'The Chosen Ones' eh?

Now I can't wait to see how the Rugby League deal with The Celtic Crusaders for fielding illegal players - ah well Ce la Vie.

An embarrassment.

TBF to the Crusaders fans (even crucru)!!

, I have sympathy with them to a certain extent. They have been lied to and cheated as well. The RFL have put them into a premier competition before the club was ready. So much for due diligence

.

Continuing the saga of The Welsh Team who weren't Welsh at all but a pile of disguised Aussies hiding under some Daffodils
The RFL strikes again............to be continued..............

No wonder the RFL have been down there "helping them out" is`nt it an offence to employ illegal workers.?

Oh cadoo where art though ?

no sympathies ....... sorry

Perhaps they could play without payment, they wouldn't be working then, would they??

You have to wonder what 'advise' was given by the RFL as they are supposed to check all overseas players are registered correctly & advise the clubs if any mistameaner has occurred.

Absolutly agree with you there.
They should only have been considered for the 2012 franchise.

But that would not have been any use to Mr Lewis. He needed to demonstrate on his CV how under his guidance he had expanded our game.

.......bleedin shocking dunno what the bloody hell is goin on ..we have gone from a well run family orientated club to a bloody laughin stock in a few months ....only thing i can say is that all the six were recruited by the previous admin ...but god only knows how the bloody hell someone dint spot this balls up when first happened ..........jeeze how the hell are we gunna have people take us serious now eh

I really feel for you Celtic fans just now. The way things have turned out must be both embarrassing and really disappointing for you. I really hope this all gets sorted and that the club and fans will be able to start afresh with some good players and a solid base next season.

cheats never prosper

Shocking!!!! The RFL is run by fools.... x

ALAN rowley was right.you were not ready for the big time.should be demoted and made to follow the rules like everyone else.

You know, people like you are pathetic.

You should be sympathising with the fans, not one of whom is to blame for this shambles, not coming on here with your childish, bitter whinging. Parochial and bitter and embarrassing.

feel real sorry for you guys down in wales, your a credit to your team, and yes your team has been dominated by australians for the last few years but im pretty sure you would have got it right in the future regards attracting welsh talent to the crusaders, unfortunatly this current predicament makes a mockery of the visa system in this country, and i also feel for the players who have been there for afew years, duggan,quinn, mark dc and jace van dyke its virtually the end of there proffesional careers.....such a shame, chin up celtic followers
