What is it then?

Plus the Valkyrie and New York. I’d like to think these rumours started by random Twitter accounts of Cas, Bradford and Huddersfield fans with about 3 followers each turn out to be rubbish. It still unsettling though, but that’s what they’re hoping for. You’d think if there were any truth in them then the agent earpiece journalists would be all over it.

That was a thread to discuss the merits of feeder clubs in the Championship, and the tweet was a catalyst for it, that’s all. But I can see your point.

I’d say it’s a discussion forum and not so much a place for spreading malicious rumours made up by Horny4Cas01 or Town4eva on Twitter, but maybe I’m a bit fussy where I get my info from.

And you starting a topic on here has now spread to the York forum which will spread to Facebook which will then be on the terraces at the weekend. I’ve already seen some fans asking when the club will make a statement. Still, if it helps London get in then great.

“I know there’s no evidence of this rumour but let me amplify it a bit more by spreading it onto a popular Rugby League forum.” Nice one mate, cheers.

Was only last week some Cas fans were saying they’d had to pay a transfer fee to a York to keep one of their own players for next season. Now we’ve got no money and are in special measures. Must have spent that transfer fee quick then.

Would those posters who are backing up the first post be Bradford fans by any chance? They’ll be rubbing themselves raw at the thought. This is what they call “banter”. You should see the Knight’s fans Facebook page after a game, it’s like playing whack-a-mole with half wits.

A random Huddersfield Town supporter on Twitter posts something derogatory and now there’s a thread on Total RL saying a rugby league club is in financial turmoil. I’ve also seen a few Bradford and Cas fans chip in, it’s amazing how people who can barely put coherent sentences together know all this yet no one else does. While I don’t for a minute think York are swimming in cash our available budget increased by £650k on day one, and we’ve only signed one player since the season started, so if it were true that we’re struggling so badly that now we’re not paying people then someone has made one almighty calculation error.

York

We had 3 far better full backs in the 18 man squad than the one who played there. Can’t get my head around it.

One of the worst games I’ve seen that and I’ve seen some rubbish. Just not entertaining at all, 2 poor quality sides playing stop start with numerous captains challenges for us all to waste our evenings watching. Plus a shouty chav as pre match and half time noise. Even if we’d won I’d have left fed up that I paid £28 to witness it. Poor crowd as well, only about 500 more than the respective fixture got in League 1.

I do subscribe, have to re-log in most times as for some reason it doesn't remember me or the passwords. I've seen other complaining about it too. Don't mind ads as they can be easily ignored, but pop up ones that you either can't bypass or have to wait for aren't really fair on the user, especially as my phone now thinks I'm interested in betting sites so everywhere else is now advertising similar. Could be a bit of a nightmare for a gambling addict.

I've read a few comments on this match over the weekend, even seen someone suggesting a change of coach which is just daft. I knew we'd get some people being like that but it is a bit disappointing to hear, especially as we aren't exactly getting stuffed every week. How things are on the pitch now is exactly how it was always going to be and it'll certainly be of no surprise to the people in charge. There's a reason better players cost more money and that's simply because they're better players, you can't change a very good part-time championship squad into a good SL squad in a few months, just never going to happen even in you put Wayne Bennett in charge and spent full cap. You also can't sign a good SL squad at the end of a season, especially as we were under the impression we'd have no extra funding at all until it was announced we were in SL. We are basically a very good Championship squad with the addition of Paul Vaughan, a couple of fringe NRL/SL players and a top class player in David Nofoaluma who's re-discovered his love for the game. Next year, we'll be better cos we've got over a year to plan and twice as much money. If we'd had a year to plan and twice as much money, the players would be better, smarter and more used to the pace of the game & referee interpretations at this level, then the games against Warrington, Wigan, Catalan, Wakefield, Huddersfield, Cas & Leigh would have more than likely been a York win and we'd be top of SL with everyone wetting their pants.
