As I have said before The RFL is corrupt how CELTIC ,QUINNS, WAKEFIELD AND CASTLEFORD can get in in place or in front of LEIGH,WIDNES AND HALIFAX is beyond me, the 4 that have got licences are the worst followed teams or have stadia that is nowhere near the required standard and are nowhere near starting work on a new stadium.


Before i try ready anymore. Halifax have a main stand they have been building for 8 years. Dont you think they should try and finish that before classing themselves as having the required standard.

do you not think that a 30 game league season is a bit too much though depending how well you do in the cc and play offs could be more than that

A bit rich from somebody who doesn't go to away games due to re-cuperating from sitting on your backside all the previous evening.

Think Celtic should have one but not this time round, maybe next time when the licences are up for review again (correct me if im wrong but i think that is in 3 years). Leigh and certainly Widnes should be in IMO. Like a few people have posted, I also am not surprised by the decisions.

If they did do that, they might have to expand the salary cap to allow more players in the squad for more games in the season.

Still better supported than Quinns ,Any team that has not been in SL has not got the financial clout to complete a stadium ,lets face it Salford would be out of Business now if they had failed to get a licence it was a gamble that paid off.
Wakey and Cas should have already been in there stadiums by now and there Franchises should be on elastic and if they are not in and playing at new stadia before 2011 they should lose their licence .
