Isn't that a conflict of interest of the RFL ?
Would they do it to another club that's outside Yorkshire ?
Seem to remember the RFL cutting Widnes loose and hanging them out to dry when they had problems !
Also seem to remember them telling us get a new stadium or your out of SL yet Wakey n Cas stadiums are still worse than Wilderspool !
Maybe I'm looking at it wrong but it all seems very Yorkshire bias ! Unless it's Wigan that is !
Unless it's Wigan. Yes, you're right, because we are now renting Central Park from the RFL....
You are right about the conflict of interest though. This is a very odd transaction. Let's leave Wigan out of this - how is this fair to clubs like Wire or Saints who have built new grounds but lost famous old grounds in the process? We all know what a struggle it was for Saints to get their new stadium built. How much easier the process would have been if the RFL had stepped in to help them.
Without more transparency on the deal, this just looks like Yorkshire bias and a desire to cover up the failure of the licensing process and SC to prevent clubs going bust.
