I have no doubt had you not, we would be out now.
I wish you all well in your continuance and your development in the future.

What an insensitive and utterly obnoxious post.

I'm thoroughly sorry that this has happened to the Cru, whose loyal band of supporters were great to mix with, creating a fabulous atmosphere at Wrexham. Incompetent management is what has cost the club and how people from Wakefield can even begin to gloat, when they were in just the same position, beggars belief.

So sorry for you guys. I was really shocked when I heard and would never have wanted the Cru out of Superleague. Damn shame.

does this mean your going to fold completly or do you think there is a viable championship side there?
not being funny on the pitch you might be able to cope with the championship but as a whole im not sure the managment are up to it,
as proven by the major infringments (visa, administrations) in your short existence.
not a pop at you just a bit of a discussion point i think

What a pisser for Cru fans and players. Huge sympathy for you guys. Obviously the management down there wasn't up to it. What now for the rest of the season?

It would be no surprise to see Harris walk and alot of players to follow him.

Could be Scorpions/Cougars in disguise that turn up at Wakefield on Sunday.

Hopefully it will not come to that and the players give it their all for the fans who have backed them 100% all season but it will take a heckof a lot for them to do that after only hearing the news on TV at the same time as everyone else.

It is very rare that SaintsFan and I agree, however this is one of those occasions. Crusaders has been one of our favourite away trips. Even our defeat at Bridgend in 2009 was a superb day and night out, the sing song in the clubhouse after the game was brilliant.

Sincere good wishes for the future, and you'll always be made welcome at Wigan.






SAINTS THE ORIGINAL AND PERENNIAL CHEATS

For sale full Saints kit (circa 1989). Shirts in pristine condition, but shorts badly soiled.

For 27 - 0 you get a trophy
For 75 - 0 you get sod all.

Wigan had eight in a row
Saints have five in a row

Good luck in the future, hopefully you can strongly build the orthodox way now, truly bring RL to Wales, and hope to see a few of you Sunday to continue the Keith Duffy banter.

THis came as a massive shock, I genuinely haven't seen or heard a single rumour of this anywhere before the announcement. Nobody saying I told you so.

I feel for the fans and the players. The players I suppose are in the same situation as a lot of people lately whose employers have gone belly up, which is not pleasant. Sad for the fans too.

It will now be interesting to see whether the club survive in some form next year, but a lot of people better placed than me seem to regard it as unlikely. I would have liked to see the Welsh experiment work. Pity.
