In all seriousness do they have enough covered seating to meet the superleague minimum standards? Or will we have another example of RFL bending the rules just because that team plays in a fashionable and desirable metropolis like Wakefield?

Lot's of pure jealousy pouring from the same old posters time and time again. Rather than commenting on the 1000 beer guzzlers how about the ones that are sitting watching the game? There may not be the near 8k crowd as announced but looking at images from the game there was at least 5k+ sat in the stands watching the greatest game.

Not bad for a 'nearly' two year old club in a city with no RL history.

What average crowds have London & Halifax knocked out this year?

I don't care to join a measuring contest about crowds - the OT was about a biting incident; which looked fairly conclusive on the slo-mo footage and if so, should see the offender given a lengthy, if not permanent ban. It's about the lowest thing a player can do on the field, short of inserting a digit into the anus, and deserves the opprobrium of everyone who cares about the game.

Hard to pin it on Rowley directly as some have done, but he does seem to have a 'brand,' which is less than savoury.

Sent home by the club to UK with immediate effect

Feel free to resume your discussion on crowd size.

What happeed....did Rowley find another monitor, because he said yesterday in the BBC site.....

"We did have a monitor but we couldn't quite see, so let the powers-that-be deal with those ones.

It's not that argyle needs the money at the moment, but the blatant lies to make the wolfpack seem more and more like the messiah that the game needs is just tiresome.....6k for a 2nd tier side in their 2nd year is brilliant regardless of freebies etc.....but christ on a bike, the blatant lies are just tedious.

Bingo! Embarrassing level of bitterness in this thread, precisely the sort of thinking that is holding the sport back.

Re: Jack Bussey bites Toulouse player : Tue Sep 18, 2018 4:41 pm  

8 game ban plus an additional ban for some other offence in the match.

Is 8 enough??

Sorry that's a load of hooey! The people holding the sport "back" are either the SL Clubs heading by Lenagan and McManus, or the RFL and Hetherington, or even Sky, not the opinions of an Internet forum that in reality has no effect compared to the others.
