Hell even WE've had to lend Widnes players. Ste Tyrer for one and didn't we lend them Beasely for a bit.

Ungrateful scousers!

Awaits prompts responses!!!!

Hey Janner did you read Barrold's post where he says that he really isn't anti-Welsh and really could think of nothing better than going to a nice ground to see a successful Welsh team?

I laughed so much I peed a can of Fosters!

I don't need any invitation to have a dig at the RFL and Crusaders, but not just for the sake of it!!

Cas Salford and Saints all have ancient grounds bordering on the dilapidated. Wakey's is held together with more than a lick of goodwill!!!

Newport wouldn't have to be much to compare equally!!
Thing is, I much prefer watching my rugby at Salfors, Saints Wakey (just can't be +'ve about cas) than I do at say, Fartown or Don Valley or Wigan.
Of all the newer grounds the Halton and keepmoat stadia are my favs for RL!

Have a dig by all means - fill yer boots, but apply some balance. Do it with some parity with the rest of RL clubs when having a go.

There are much more worthy debates, pertinent to the future of the club and the game that the state of the Gary Glitters at Newport!!

What part of Rodney Parade would you say was 'enjoyable'??

Apart from the exits?





The bar /club house thing was reasonable I thought.

But that was outside the 'stadium' and from looking at the signs there were no passouts allowed.

The 'Hospitality boxes' resembled a bombed out block of flats in Grozny.

The toilets were dirty portakabins.

The 'beer' came from the depths of a blokes backpack that looked like he was spraying weeds with Roundup instead of selling beer.

The whole place was very poor I thought and not the best way to get fans interested in supporting Celtic Crusaders


If the crusaders had to move anywhere I would have suggested going the other way up the M4 to llanelli and groundsharing with the Scarlets RL team.

Now there is a decent ground

Bombed out block of flats in Grozny







Fair play that's FUNNY

That all sounds really encouraging and I'm so glad that there was a good crowd and a good atmosphere even if the final scoreline was a foregone conclusion ... on this occasion! Who knows what good things will happen next season! Don't let the detractors and wind up merchants get to you. Lots of us are keeping everything crossed that things just get better for the Crusaders.

PS: You do realise, of course, that your emergency team of players managed to hold the Rhinos to a lower score than Castleford did the week before. From little acorns ...

I know but he's such an easy target I can't resist

ah the old wink im not a strange and lonely man wasting away winding people up on the internet, just joshing trick. Good one.

The ground was easy to get to, sold me a decent pint of worthy for £2.50 (i bought mine from a bar, ive know idea what the hell you were doing), gave me a good view of the rugby and was easy enough to get out of. ten minute walk back to the train station, ten min journey to cardiff. Ramshackle but compact, with friendly helpful stewards. Who gives a toss about the hospitality boxes? They seemed full enougth to me and everyone else seemed happy enough it seems whether they took to the game or not. You need a new obsession mate. Try warhammer or something, im sure you would fit right in.

Please dont tell me u are a celtic fan grendal if so when did u lend us ste tyrer.dont think it was u u fool it was st helens.And also how many loan players u got there.Another point is you wouldent have won anything without them 6 players so should your 2 wins in super l still stand i think not as it was against the law for them to even be playing cheating club.I cant wait till next season to see it all fall apart like all the other clubs outside super l.we are all watching its like a soap opera down there it what gona happen next.Eastenders aint got awt on you lol

O and we aint no scousers if you google widnes we are infact in cheshire;this guy hasnt got a clue

parlez vous anglais?

Another example of the English Education System leading the way in supplying candidates for full frontal Lobotomies

Well for me the issue here is principle.

there's a suprise


Mate....does your missus ever get tired of the missionary position every month or is she into trying something new


I only ask because the same old cobblers month in month out must get a bit tedious

Have you ever considered a new career as an estate agent???

'Ramshackle but compact'??


You will be telling us that the grandstand 'would benefit from subtle modernisation' next

Mate the place was a tip.

You know it.

I know it.

Everyone that went knows it.

The club needs to relocate to Llanelli

FAST

seriously mate you are a very lonely man just admit it. its the start to your re-introduction to society, your cries for help are not being ignored.

If you dont like it then don't go back. Me i'll be buying my season ticket for the hazell terrace next week, then next season i'll stand behind the dug out with a great bunch of dedicated, boisterous welsh rugby league fans cheering on my team. You can do whatever you want.

Moving to a town smaller than Bridgend, which is perhaps more passionate about Union than any town in Wales, with a stadium that's more expensive to hire than the Liberty Stadium....yeh sounds great.

Lets try looking at what 'jannerboyuk' really should have typed in the second paragraph.

I agree its a poor stadium but its all we can afford. Me, i'll be buying my season ticket for the hazell terrace next week because I cant afford one for the actual Hazell stand and the 'hospitality boxes' look in danger of imminent collapse. I can then stand behind the dug out with half a dozen other Welsh supporters and randomly chant 'Sheep sheep Sheep shaggers' for 15 minutes, or until we have conceded 3 tries (whichever comes sooner), before realising how silly I sounded and quietly slipping away into Newport for a warm pint of Brains bitter. You can do whatever you want.

Wrong!

Ste Tyrer is on a season loan to the Crusaders from Saints along with Matty Smith. The Crusaders loaned out Ste Tyrer to Widnes for a couple of weeks this season as they had an injury crisis. Saints loaned out Ste Tyrer and Matty Smith to Widnes direct for the last few weeks of last season to help with an injury crisis they had at that time also.

No we just had a cack team!

Saints also wheren't happy Tyrer wasn't playing so took him out of Cru to us... but then he got injured and Cru had injuries whilst we got Craig Hall in etc etc.

Incorrect never wore a Widnes shirt... we only take the good Welsh lads

im sorry its hard to take a proven liar seriously. you add nothing to this debate and are an embarrassment to this sport quite frankly

Nope. When a player is on a season long loan, the home club has no say.

Saints broke it up! You can't loan a loan player can you!

widnes should have loaned him to saints and we would have gone full circle! Does anyone base their statement on any known facts or just what sounds good? rlfans is getting more and more confusing. maybe posts should carry a warning:facts may be plucked from thin air. not having a go at you j20, just wondering if we try to hold ourselves to any standards on this site!
