Still nothing on the RFL website but five live have now said it 3 times in 3 sports bulletins. Is there an option to appeal?

Since the club must have known a long time ago that this was at least a possibility, let's hope it won't have been as much of a surprise to the players and coach as it has been to us.

The club pleaded guilty so they no they had breached the salary cap.

What a load of old s**t, why the hell did they not deduct the two points at the begining of the season so we would know where we stood (New Zealand Warriors)
it stinks as far as i'm concerned Stains have done it twice now but thay get a slap on the wrist,
why the hell don't the RFL just say that they want us in the NL1 next season ?, i feel gutted for the players after all the effort they have put in over the last few weeks, if i have to watch them in NL1 next year so be it but it stinks to the highest order.
At the end of the day it is the RFL that will suffer if we are not in superleague next season, just think how much money NL1 will get through the gates next year? the RFL is an a**e and needs a change ASAP

As per site rules, please make your swearing just a little bit less obvious than changing one letter to one very similar character. Family-friendly site, no matter what we're discussing... Thanks, Fraggle

I think that the RFL has brought this up now for 3 reasons.

1) It sets up for an interesting finishing in the relegation fight, yet another way for RFL to make money

2) It gives Quins a helping hand to avoid being dragged into the relegation battle

3) Any points deduction to Bradford will not really effect that at all being a few points ahead of Salford.
