Total incompetence on the part of the RFL IMO. I know they don't want to be seen to be moving fixtures in recognition of the rara's but fecking hell, next week Wales play Ireland at home, one of their biggest six nations games whatever the positions of the two teams and they pitch up a game with a new franchise that has not established itself in the region, and on top of that the Wales/ireland game now looks like a six nations decider.

Sometimes you just have to think with your head and give way for the longer term good of the game, it wouldn't have needed a rocket scientist to give CC an away game for this weekend

Those two somehow don't together do they

Simple answer is to switch the home /away game surely.

Just a suggestion, no offence etc. to anyone who supports this expantion pony!!

Well its a silly long way to go for one match and worse still, the route there is hardly direct. At least with Harlequins its just straight down the M1, a little stretch along the car park (M25 for non-motorists) and onto the M3, then you're there, easy as that. As for the NL1 suggestion, I've always had a soft spot for Dewsbury and they've been very sensible with their pricing scheme this season.

£98.90 and I asked how much it would be when fixtures came out.

Yes I looked when the fixture was announced and it was that price ... it seems that they offer reduced fares from about 6 - 8 weeks before.

It was dearer to book return, 2 singles much cheaper.

At the end of the day in three years time it could be us or them and if other clubs boycott celtic and crowds are down then thr RL may and i only say may realise theyve cocked up AGAIN.

The thing is that SKY want a RL side in the valleys more than RFL. They want people south wales watching their sports channels all year round.

I can see wakefield getting beat next week and I am just dreading what stevo and eddie are going to say about it all.


unfortunately we can't rely on BBC Radio Leeds otherwise I could listen to them whilst watching Sky.

Why would you want to boycott Celtic? What Championship clubs are more deserving of a Super League license?
