Very good letter, it will be interesting to see what spin is put in their reply.

Just as a note, as it doesn't really matter, its Lee Gaskell not Dean and Adam Henry not John.

The only suggestion I would make is on the copy you have made public, obscure the address. Other than that, exactly the right tactic.

If there are sound reasons, let's hear them, and give us a chance to understand. I just hope silence doesn't speak a thousand words.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity

Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike




SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!

An excellent letter and you did exactly the right thing copying in the press. To often things are done privately and the RFL can just ignore them.

We will see if the RFL will be as open and transparent as Maurice Watkins suggested in his report a year or so ago.

We will learn whether the RFL plan to be consistent in the application of the rules or whether the executive will play favourites.

Your letter is not just good for your club it is good for the game in general.

I wonder if you will get a reply. I wrote to them asking why the Bulls got docked half their Sky money while Wakefield didn't. I'm still waiting for a reply.

I'll answer that for you. It was because you agreed to it as part of your continued presence in SL. The first two seasons in SL we got no sky money so I wouldn't complain about getting half.

Oh and Wakefield hadn't had 1.2m in a secret loan from the RFL prior to their admin.

Hope that helps
