That's just busyness. A tidy office is a non-productive office

| The world knows where your local newspaper's loyalty lies:
It is encouraging to note that solidarity with Widnes Vikings has been expressed across the country, not least in Yorkshire itself. On 24 July, in an article entitled “Licence farce is a dark day for the RL,” reporter James Roberts of the Halifax and Calderdale Evening Courier delivered a stinging verdict on the RFL's handling of the entire process, pointing primarily to the rejection of a super league licence for Widnes as his central argument. He said:
“In the end, the Super League licence process turned out to be exactly what its critics feared: a giant carve up of the kind you simply would not experience in any other sport. Before anyone starts, my cynicism is not born out of Halifax's rejections.”
He continues:
“No, my sympathy lies with the people of Widnes, who have been mugged by the game's powerbrokers for the third time in a little over a decade. The Vikings missed the original Super League cut in 1996, were relegated to make way for Catalans three years ago and have now been tossed aside once again, despite having a case for inclusion that was arguably more compelling than a handful of other competitors. To summarise: Widnes have the ground, heritage, a solid fan base, the development set up and the money.
In the debit column was their flirtation with administration last year, before the arrival of transport mogul Steve O'Connor and his millions. The Vikings certainly weren't expecting that to hamper them though. Even as they fought out Sunday's 26-26 thriller at the Shay, the club's hierarchy were utterly convinced of their own success. With some justification too.
The Rugby Football League's own assessment of the 19 bids—which incidentally contains more holes than the proverbial Swiss cheese—highlights the fact that Tuesday's big winners, Salford and Celtic, have poor ground facilities. And poor old Widnes? Well, I'm still no nearer to understanding that one. I have never made any secret of the fact that I fundamentally disagree with the franchise system. But if we're going to do it, let's at least do it fairly.”

This would be the MP for Halifax who likes to think she has her finger on the pulse and that people want her although the reality is something different?

| Not surprised the club feel slightly embarassed about this if they knew nothing about it. What are Linda and her colleagues trying to acheive?
Now is the total wrong time to kick up a fuss about the franchising etc. It should have been done a year+ ago.

| The club need to come out and make an official statement about this as it is ridiculous, disrespectful and could turn out very embarrassing! The players will be under so much pressure to perform at Cas now (not that they won't anyhow), but if we get beaten badly we will get laughed at sincerely.
Something along the lines of, "We are happy in our current league" would put the rugby league world in a better understanding of the situation.
