Just for the record , the players in question were only on valid visa's this [ 2009 season

Between 2005 and nov 2008 the visa's they had were not the correct ones

Difficult, as none of them played til 2006.

Ah but that was just us "cheating" again sneaking into the country a year early. Dirty DIRTY cheating Welshmen we are!

, but you are now in SL , should remain in SL , and will eventually become a true SL club with decent local support and a mainly Welsh team

All the best for next season

I can't be @rsed arguing this again for the trillionth time.

What I will say though is good morning from the supporters of Super League Celtic Crusaders.

It is possible to play in NL2 with PART TIME /SEMI PRO PLAYERS. Are these players in question professional at that time? thats for the RFL and the UKBA to decide.

All that we know for certian is that their visas for the 2008 and 2009 season were VALID AND CORRECT.

Before anyone else makes any spurious accussations , GET THE FACTS RIGHT!

2009 yes , 2008 no

Most NL 1 / Championship players are part time / semi pro players , ie they get paid to play RL part time , but still have full time occupations

No different to 2000,2001,2002,2003 and so on

Apostrophes denote the possessive or missing letters.
However it never denotes the plural.

You should know better, for shame.

Neither would bring ANYTHING to SL.

Starbug,
sorry mate but your figures are not to be relied upon since you earlier claimed the 6's visas were wrong in 2005 when they hadn't even signed for us.

Stop clutching at straws

What do you mean?



Surely their average attendances of 54,238, and their free-flowing brand of rugby, with their loyal (and friendly, open-minded) fans. They'd be a HIT, let em in.

Thanks for the english lesson

It's a while since I had one of those

Oh I had forgotten about that.

I have to admit that their inclusion is an absolute must




















P.S.

Cougars for the Challenge Cup next year along with the Northern Rail Cup, Championship Title and Grand Final winners totally unbeaten thoughout the season

SL here we come

I know i will be lambasted for this but what is it with supporters of expansion teams that their point of view is always correct and everyone else is wrong ?

Rupert Bore,

Yeah I know what you mean. Because "traditional heartlands" fans are always so humble and understanding eh?

aw bless.

Used by patronising to55ers pretending to be clever

Pots? Kettles?

i would bloody hope so, better then whiny people whining that people who disagree with them err disagree with them. oh the humanity.

'you' didn't invent anything, 'you' don't win anything. you watch then whine or cheer and thats it. Its not 'your' sport and the sooner your accept that and make your points without whining like a bitch the happier you will be.

Yeah Rupert,

We were playing the "lord of the Manor's" game. And beating them at it.

Give us a few years and our lads will be beating yours too.

Or is that reply not humble enough for you?

Well you can always continue to whinge and whine about not getting respect whilst at the same time offering none.

Girlyboy!

Errr... just being pedantic like - but we played the same "rugby" as was played everywhere else in the UK in 1895!

Northern Union morphed into what is now recognised as Rugby League some time after that - and it was bit by bit, not an "invention" at a given point in time! But don't let me spoil the narrative! Crack on!!!

Rotherham Fev Fan you are quite correct but i was only winding up the natives. I see you are based in Rawmarsh. I was brought up just a few miles from there at Conisbrough my team being your local rivals whom you recently thrashed, Doncaster.
