From the other thread but thought this deserved its own disscusion..
IF we get kicked out of super league on July 26th and the RFL give there reason as no super league standard ground in progress/completed do we protest against the decision at the Crusaders game or at Red Hall or not at all??
Do we accept that going into adminstration and not having a new ground to go to has caused the RFL to see us as the weakest link?
I personally think there at least two worse super league applications than us and we are the ones who everybody expects to be relegated so it wont be much of a 'fuss' if we go, so protest or go down gracefully? the choice is yours...

I aint going down without a fight

I think we should all cancel our Sky subscriptions too!

not easy live in cricket & Barca loving house

Crusaders might alswo be without a ground. Quins haven;t announced where they are playing.

at least one Crusaders player not been paid for 3 months !

Hope the RFL are aware of this!

Yeah they havent been paid either...

Of course they are but its a "brush" job.

Until after the franchise decision I presume.

Grow a backbone and put some trousers on

Do i need to answer that.

It seems they are still allowed to sign new players but don't seem to want to pay the ones they have, just how do the RFL stand on this sort of carry on.

A protest would do nothing to change anyones minds and frankly I'd say we'd look desperate and silly. If we get the boot then take it on the chin, dust ourselves down and fight back by backing the club to the hilt in the championship, show our loyalty stand and be loud and proud, show them what they are missing. I don't think its all as done and dusted as people think. Don't get me wrong I'm getting more nervous every day and I do have my nagging doubts but when I think of our proposals re Belle Vue or playing at Barnsley, community work, youth development team, commercial side, our forward thinking marketing, running at a profit, our increasing crowds, hitting the 5k members etc etc how can they kick us out?

will do when you do

Theres more than one.

As for a protest, would make no difference now and may harm the future. Yes we might not have the worst application but we knew what the score was regarding that a long time ago. We've been in administration and not made the required progress on the ground that we were warned was neccessary. We don't really have any grounds for protesting.

We do , we have not submitted the weakest franchise application based on the strongest 14 teams making up SL.

Won't do any good though.

We have grounds for protest if we can prove that our application is better than certain other clubs who will in all probability remain in Super League.

So have Crusaders!

Yes but we know they are a protected species. They could commit mass murder at every home game (well ok, not that 'mass') and still be the blue eyed boys. It would be a waste of time and achieved nothing but antagonise the corrupt RFL even more, costing us next time round. Widnes showed how to play it last time.

So we have grounds then, SIMPLE question.

If you never want to get back in, then go for your life, protest.

Is this fact or rumour regarding the Crusaders players not being paid?

Also how will you prove our application is better than others? The RFL aren't going to publish any of the applications and I doubt any one on here has seen ours. What will be will be all that is important is for us to carry on supporting our team and showin AG that we are a club worth holding on to and that we can have a very bright future under his reign.

So you agree we do have grounds, thats a quick turn around.

Probably a bit of both. I know of a Cru player who hasnt been paid on time in the past. I remember Youngquest tweeting at beginning of season that the club are a joke and don't deserve to be operating as they still owed him money from last season. I don't think he'd tweet that if it wasn't true as it could have very serious repercussions
