I have my own views and feelings about what's happened and happening . But one thing looks quite clear. If MC is NOT staying, then every single fan, short standing or long standing, will stop attending.

A sensible and pragmatic post.

Yes x 100. If we lose the ground, I think that's it. If we keep the ground, well even with a cobbled together team, no money, no plan and 15 points deducted, there's a future.

I think we're all feeling a bit tired and emotional at this time of year. I can't say more.

A very sad day indeed. On the day that Featherstone Rovers enter administration, one of our greatest players, Arnie Morgan, has passed away. A Great Britain international, Arnie played at Wembley in 1967, our first ever Challenge Cup final victory, and for his country at the 1968 World Cup. Rest in Peace. https://www.fevarchive.co.uk/players/arnie-morgan/708/

I think you're right. Difficult to know what to make of this public offer then and its ridiculously short window of opportunity before the deadline.

I assumed this was the action of the administrator.

A fine player and an absolute gentleman. https://www.fevarchive.co.uk/players/ken-greatorex/406/ Rest in Peace

No he didn't George. Of course, in those days a West Yorks team like Featherstone would rarely get a fixture against a Lancashire club like Wigan. Mind you Rovers did play Warrington because dad remembers him and his mates laughing at a spindly little baldy winger when Wire ran on the field. As he says himself, "we weren't laughing at t'end o't'match".

According to the old man, kicking duels between fullbacks were an important feature of gaining territory in those days and the only player who could get anywhere near Freddie for distance was Jimmy Ledgard of Leigh
