Don't believe all you read its all PR spin to justify them being there. Remember its far easier getting young lads to play sport than keeping them at 16+

So you know different then? Any proof?

That dosent make sense. You claimed that there are not enough juniors to go round two clubs in Wales. But now your saying it can't be proved?

Funny how you get more answers when you put your sponsors hat on!

The latest:

Northern Rail fixtures will be released early next week

Championship fixtures might not be released until mid january

The reasons being that the RFL are awaiting sound assurances from clubs in "all three leagues" that they can meet their commitments" I guess this would mean Crusaders, Keighley and Wales United.

whether or not Wales have enough young players to make up a 2nd team wedged into the Championship, how the hell will they survive on im sure will be poor crowds.

A SL team struggled every 2nd week to get 2000 so how will a team of young lads, no "star" names etc get by week by week?

I meant the numbers of players that they quote playing RL in Wales cannot be proved either way and even if they were anywhere near the figures mentioned it is only a window at a certain time when they have been pumping money into sport and use RL as a cash cow.
It proved nowt, to me its the open age players that count as proof and how many amateur open age clubs play RL in Wales??

The football world cup starts on 11th June 2010, in South Africa.

The fixtures for this are released later this morning.

We start our next season in February 2010 and WE STILL do not know the fixtures.

I e-mailed the RFL last week to ask them when we can expect the fixtures being published. Guess what ?????? NO response.

A couple of other people on other forums have also stated mid-January. It does worry me a bit though that a team can 'made' and thrown in to the comp in about 6 weeks flat. Surely that's not enough time for sound planning? And what players are available at this time of year?
