Why do you have to conclude it happened during his playing career? The BBC says "Schofield underwent surgery to have an eye removed in September 2022 which he says led to "headaches, migraines, forgetfulness, anxiety and lack of concentration, all of which led to my brain damage diagnosis"." That's doesn't seem to suggest that his playing career caused the brain damage - or was the eye removed due to an old rugby injury?

An I going mad, or did a thread about brawls get deleted?

Whatever happened to the lovely grounds that were promised in the Calder area? As part of the licensing at some point did both Cas and Wakey not promise new grounds? I could be wrong here, so please correct me if necessary! The growth is very good, but looking at the dates, I have had a thought. Now this is just spit balling, so forgive me. In the mid-nineties, it seemed to became more acceptable for whole familes (and in particular girls) to support football. Looking at premier league average attendances (on worldfootball.net), they jumped by about 17% in the 95-96 season compared to the 94-95 season (by far the biggest change in average crowd during the PL era). Do we think something similar happened in SL? I note that from the last 'proper' winter season to the first SL season, we saw a 18% jump in attendances (from wiki and Parky's numbers). I'm sure that playing in summer had something to do with it, and it is likely just a coincidence, but they are pretty similar % increases.

What band is that then? and where abouts in the Netherlands? I've never seen that in the Hague. Maybe that's because I have my bacon and egss blinkers on though. -
Dragons boss blasts RFL disciplinary process
zorquif replied to League Express's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Why after making concessions to help make catalans successful would the rfl have a disciplinary vendetta against them? Did the club release that video? If so they should get a giant fine for bringing the club into disrepute
