So if Crusaders go bust, Widnes would probably be put up into SL... so when the franchises come along again will there be a need to get rid of Wakefield or Castleford? I thinks not sadly.

The RFL gave them a guarantee that Rugby League, and Super League club would continue in Wales even if that meant dissolving Crusaders RL and starting a new company and club under the name Wales Crusaders.

That basically means Crusaders can do what ever they want without loosing their Super League licence will clubs in the Championship struggle to keep themselves going and gain a Super League licence.

It would not surprise me if the RFL manage to find a reason not to deduct them 9 points next season.

London Broncos went into administration a few years ago and the RFL tried to keep it quiet, they allowed London to form a new company called London Broncos 200x (what ever year it was) and they got away with no points deduction, I think the season after they became Harlequins RL.

now dont laugh at me but if the RFL use LOGIC (i said dont laugh) then Crusaders have no right to a licence in 2012 as Widnes were rejected because they fell into administration

It is ridiculous, RL in Wales will never be big or popular enough to even get Wakefield attendances... the SL record low attendances this year by the 'saders speak for itself.

Get Halifax in, like Widnes their home crowds will surely go up 1,000-2,000 along with SL travelling supporters.

Get rid and stop fiddling with our game.
