What is it about the words 'unbiased comentators', that you don't understand???? The commentators, with no axe to grind, speculated at how few were in visual attendance compared to the declared gate......not me...the commentators!!! Write to them and tell them that they are talking crap. Doh!!!
Again in terms of your attendances, if your own so called hardcore fans won't travel within Wales from one ground to another, then they aren't all that 'hard core' are they?
As I mentioned previously, yet along with the comment on Dick van Dyke and chums you ignored, it's not your home support which has grown significantly, it's the number of visiting fans.
Or better still you write to the RFL citing your evidence of unbiased commentators that Crusaders are fiddling the figures, also write to the press association regarding their inaccurate reporting of attendances and finally HMRC regarding the fact Crusaders are over reporting crowds and over paying revenue. (While you're there let them know that contrary to popular belief Hull teams do not have 8 million away fans). Hopefully one of them will give a damn.
On the comments on Jace Van Dijk (see what I did there GRUBS, spelt his name right) The investigation by the relevant authority found against one player not having the appropriate checks completed to work in the country and they were subsequently fined by the relevant authority, I don't seem to recall the RFL saying that the registration system for playing in NL1 was out of order, there is a difference between the two. That said it's gone quiet on what the RFL involvement or any further actions by the RFL but that's pretty much like the appeal from Cas that has not been mentioned anywhere as lodged or heard (best leave sleeping dogs lie huh?)
