I may be slated for this post, but here goes anyway.

The RFL and the Welsh RL team (in its various guises) have taken the mickey out of honest RL fans, their own included since inception. Rather than continuing with the way things are and the fans of opposing clubs simply doing as they are told I'm going to go on a one man protest.

The Welsh experiment will not get another penny out of me. I've bought my season ticket, but when it comes to the home game against the Welsh then I'll be sending it to the RFL with an accompanying letter explaining reasons for my non-attendance. I've had enough of being led blindly like a lamb to the slaughter by the RFL and I will not help tie the noose around my own clubs neck just so a couple of fat cats at the RFL can sit sipping brandy whilst congratulating themselves on how they've murdered another heartland club.

Please don't miunderstand me, I'm not anti-expansion; I'm just pro-fairness, equality and a level playing field for all. Remember when those things were actually a part of our once proud game?

Ditto, and very well put too

I sense a slight change of attitude to the Welsh club , strange really as when us NL fans [ as was at the time ] were all telling everybody that the Crusader project was all a ' set up ' , all we kept hearing was ' sit down shut up ' , it's all about the bigger picture and better for the ' game ' , or you're not real RL fans , just fans of your small town club , your're holding back the sport

Welcome to our world

We are already in your world....

My nervousness is not with expanding the game but forced expansion that is propped up at the expense of the much belittled 'Heartland' clubs.
If Crusaders had got in by merit (Oh God we are entering P+R) then all well and good, they would be sound financially and have a decent team to get in and probably a more substantial fanbase.
But how long before the RFL push through an Irish and Scottish club? and which heartland club gets edged out then?
Super League or Super League Europe?

Lol for once both sets of fans should unite over this issue, if either one of our clubs had gone the same way would we be safe in SL? both clubs are trying there rocks off to build new grounds then the RFL come along and kick us fans/clubs in the nuts! something needs to be done now not when its 2 late!!!
