The RFL have refused to register Batley players over debts due to HMRC.
Players will only be registed to the Bulldogs once their debt is nil and paid up....interesting one!!

I read something yeasterday that they'd posted a decent little profit. Shame they didn't post it to HMRC.

Yeah, 20k plus profit Simon....fantasic for a club of that size.
Makes you wonder how many others in the CC have debts to HMRC, Batley are a well run club and a role model for other clubs in the CC to how to run a club and survive. So it's a bit of a shock to hear this news, I'm sure they'll be ok.

The article on THe Batley Bulldog's website makes interesting (and maybe worrying) reading for all clubs.
Apparently "...the RFL wanted all Clubs to be free of debt especially to the Inland Revenue and that RFL may refuse to register players if appropriate."

How many clubs are debt-free, I wonder?
Will Crusaders' (to name one club not quite at random) players be registered?

Mr Drebin may need some assistance from his good friend to get this lot sorted out.
