Wales’ golden generation?
Jeff Stein replied to welshmagpie's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
A thread congratulating a Welsh team on a victory turns into one slagging Ireland and Scotland off. How rugby league -
Unless things have changed, work permit conditions generally won't allow holders to also play semi-pro. Skolars have had this issue for recruiting for years now. No development officers, no strategic plan, no internationals and now the loss of one of the two Pro clubs. It certainly appears that the RFL are treating IMG's prioritising of London seriously

The RFL's shrug of the shoulders press release this morning spoke volumes. They hope Skolars will carry on the development work in Haringey and North London ie they are not going to lift a finger to involve themselves and want a broken club to manage it without assistance

As a season ticket holder who has watched the team since their very season as an amateur club I am absolutely gutted by this

Sun 20th Aug: The Betfred League One Match Thread
Jeff Stein replied to John Drake's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
If the decision was just nodded through of course there would be no investigation. I am not sure what Skolars could investigate from a coach on the M6. As it is now Skolars that are in front of RFL compliance having been entirely blameless in the first place. I guess they will have to make their case, but it appears incredibly one sided that they are the only ones being looked into having already paid the not inconsiderable sum for the wasted Coach journey. Incidentally it is being suggested that the rearranged game breached the RFL's player welfare rules as there is meant to be a 5 day gap between away games. Instead Skolars were left with 3 away games in 8 days -

Or they just nodded the decision through without investigating further. Still they can now throw Skolars under the bus for not managing the nigh on impossible. -
Sun 20th Aug: The Betfred League One Match Thread
Jeff Stein replied to John Drake's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Taking a few hours off is clearly different to having to take two days off at short notice particularly when the original postponement was as the coach was arriving at the ground allegedly at the behest of a third party -

Whereas Skolars would have had close on 450 miles to go not counting the distances within London the players have to travel to get on the coach and then get home in the early hours of the morning. No doubt Town's players will have the same issue in the Greater Workington metropolis -

This would be the Hemel who didn't manage to get a team out for a single match in either competition they entered last year? -
