Quote ="Dunkirk Spirit"True, but how much of that money will be retained by the RFL, to cover the losses at the RFL, due to cancellations of international and domestic games. I’m pretty sure Rimmer will keep his own ship afloat, while watching clubs sink. I’m not aware if any clubs have applied for a slice of the money, and if clubs will receive the amount of money asked by the clubs. Will Rimmer hold money back from those clubs he thinks most likely at risk of sinking, therefore increasing the risk of said clubs going under. Is it down to Rimmer alone, or is there a committee who have a vote to decide which clubs and how much they receive. Perhaps I’ve not been paying attention, but I’m sure I’ve not seen any details of distribution of this funding to clubs. The RFL are not renowned for openness and transparency. Remember Odsalgate?'"
I'm not sure if any club would want people to know if they had asked for a slice of the monies and with it being a loan, most will try to get through without adding to their debts.
There was something about a meeting to decide upon the first wave of distribution but, like you, I've no idea who is involved in those discussions.
The point still remains that Rimmer did at least ask for help and receive it.
As for "Odsalgate", it's still ongoing, what a right royal farce that was/is,
