This is what should have been done to Wigan.

Questions have to be asked as to why there are different punishments for different clubs for the same offense?

Same offense?

He used the phrase "cheating" not specifically circumventing the salary cap. Cheating could be anything from cap violations, drugs, playing a whole bunch of foreigners who didn't have the correct visas when the rest of the league had only one quota spot...

I think it must be the manner of the offence , if you breach the cap because of say a bonus payment that was unexpected then they fine you and you get telling off , if however you blatantly cheat knowing your going over and pay people in brown paper bags etc then your gonna get slammed... oh wait didn't Wigan do that?

All three Cumbria clubs in the same league. Must the first time in a while thats happened?

Three Cumbrian, Gateshead, two Welsh, London, Oldham, Rochdale and Doncaster... How about that for a geographical spread!

The league nobody wants to be in. I wonder if NASA are putting the space shuttle on ebay for all the away matches next year. Cas & Leeds fans moaned at having to travel to Donny for the CC semi final but look at the trips we've got to make!

Adding onto that what the Workington Chairman has said with the restructure in 2013 could have more "expansion" clubs eg Hemel in the league. Will be truely a national league plus some new grounds for me to tick off http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport1/hi/rugby_l ... 183091.stm

It does make me wonder if the solution is to eventually admit some of the stronger clubs from the RLC National and merge the two championship divisions together to set up smaller regional conferences.

....are the rl board when they have decided to punish Barrow so serverely in comparison to
wigan's poultry points deduction for their salary cap breach which overtly saved them from relegation.

THERE NEED TO BE SOME SERIOUS QUESTIONS ASKED AND SOME ANSWERS GIVEN BECAUSE THIS
STINKS!
