Hela Wigmen 1,348 Report post Posted September 28 Isn’t their quite a fractious relationship between USAP and Catalans? Why would he want to take charge of French RL or why would French RL want to vote him in? Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Man of Kent 6,816 Report post Posted September 28 (edited) Odd. On the face of it this seems a bit like Salford recommending a Sale RU chairman to become to replace Rimmer as RFL chief exec.

audois 2,142 Report post Posted September 29 Bernard Guasch supported Marc Palanque last time round. Not sure that worked out. The game here has to see the major role that the Dragons and TO have. They are the leaders. When Catalans played Wigan at the Camp Nou around 20,000 French fans made the trip down. Guasch and Bernard Sarrazain at TO are the real game leaders today. 1 Quote "It involves matters much greater than drafting the new rules...the original and existing games have their own powerful appeal to their players and public and have the sentiments which history inspires" - Harold 'Jersey' Flegg 1933 "Just as we had been Cathars, we were treizistes, men apart." - Jean Roque, Calendrier-revue du Racing-Club Albigeois, 1958-1959 Si tu( Remi Casty) devais envoyer un fax au Président Guasch?

Yes the Lacoste launch tomorrow in Carcassonne. Four candidates presently I think. More interest than last time? Reported here that Lacoste was in Toulouse earlier this week talking to TO boss Bernard Sarrazain. 1 Quote "It involves matters much greater than drafting the new rules...the original and existing games have their own powerful appeal to their players and public and have the sentiments which history inspires" - Harold 'Jersey' Flegg 1933 "Just as we had been Cathars, we were treizistes, men apart." - Jean Roque, Calendrier-revue du Racing-Club Albigeois, 1958-1959 Si tu( Remi Casty) devais envoyer un fax au Président Guasch?
