I eat in a subsised dining hall but this is what is known as perk of the job. I wouldn't get that benefit in just any restaurant.
Your ability to borrow to money is the same.
The thing about perks is that even if they are, theoretically free, the employer generally needs to pay less to his employees in wages as a result.

You really are an idiot. How many times do you have to be told? the match was played over 150 miles away at a totally different venue from the other "home" matches. Few of the normal home supporters went down. How many of your lot would bother to watch a match played in say Norfolk or somewhere similar?

Theres no need for that , as explaned to your more intelligent crus fans , this crowd showed the real hard core fan base, about the same as when cas played at yours, because most cas supporters boycotted the game because of billy liar. If you have a problem understanding that, then ask someone a little wiser.

Bloody kids eh

Wel.....maybe not 'over backwards'......
1) Did Celtic Crusaders WIN promotion to SUPER LEAGUE, no, you were placed there (before ex World Champions Widnes) because the club is located in Wales.
2) Celtic go bust, the RFL let's it re-locate to Wrexham( well a new club get's created really) and allowed to stay in Super League.
3) Crusaders are in the $hit now, maybe too many 'free tickets/offers' handed out, instead of paying speccies.
The club knew what 'debts they had inherited' (i assume they have a book keeper/acountant) but carried on regardless in spending money they didn't really have, but then again you are not alone in all that.
The RFL will do 'all they can' to assist you, they think it will work eventually, I guess mainly in producing quality Welsh rugby players, admittedly that will take time. If it's not sustainable, then it's only a matter of time before RL in Wales fails again, BUT Crusaders are in the best league to make a success of it.
My team Leigh Centurions will be stuck in the championship FOREVER, or maybe till 2048 when the RFL have explored every possible avenue that is nowhere near the M62
p.s.
I don't want you to fail, I just want promotion/relegation back - to me that is a proper sport.

Yes. In exactly the same way as every other current Super League club did.

You mean just before W Crusaders Ltd was born on Oct 20th

They didnt!

As for Blackpool you cant run a club if there is no one willing to run it.

They had no backers so no team. As for the comment on the Blackpool board about the lost for the town. They havent played in Blackpool for a few seasons now.

The club has been heading for this since the first time they left Blackpool 20 years ago.

I thought you had to win the grand final to be promoted, not finish second thn have the rules altered because you are an expansion team . Or did you forget that ???

What freaking planet are you on?

Then you're clearly a) stupid or b) being tendentious.


Every Super League club in SL for the period 2009-11 period is there for the same reason as Crusaders: they submitted a winning licence application.
