I see you have taken that to heart

Not at all. Truth hurts though doesn't it?

When the RFL appointed us into the top flight last time round, i fail to see how they could have expected us to perform any better across the board. If we are not given a franchise, in my view it can only be because of our failure to deliver a new facility to the competition, if this is so then it would be a very one dimensional view from the RFL, indeed.

Halifax application is a joke. last season their last home match was against Batley ( I was there, there was a fire in the new stand). They gave the official attendance as 8400, which coincidentally gave them an average of 2509. I can honestly say with hand on heart there were no more than 2000 . If that figure wasn't falsified they would have fallen short of the criteria.

The RFL dont seem to think so do they? And 8400? There was no where near that amount in the ground. It was close to 5k

Out of interest - does anyone know how many pages our bid is?

With Wakefield saying theirs was 700 pages I was just wondering how long a non-begging license application is?

Just 2 pages, wakefields was ' please give us the liscence we will make it worth your while.' for 698 pages, i also heard they were using subliminal messaging to help then get it?
