Better than scratching out the old tunes once again. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.

Did you read my post? I was talking about a statement about the findings from the investigation. The point being. If the investigation is complete, why have the RFL not released a statement regarding the findings? If (as I suspect) the investigation has not been completed, and the actual number involved has not been established. How can the risk be assessed? Therefore, how could the RFL let the game go ahead without knowing the facts or risks involved? If there isn't a risk, why have an investigation, or tell Ferres to isolate?

I don't think the investigation is simply about which players were involved and the ongoing covid transmission risk, which are operational regulations for the sport. It's more about why Fev thought it was ok for them to breach the Law. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

C'est la vie Has it? I haven't seen anything repoted since Ferres' enforced isolation. The longer this goes on, the more I fear for Fev tbh. Will the RFL decide to deduct points after the season is over, just by enough to stop you from qualifying for SL? It's not like they have form for changing the rules after the result has been posted, to suit their agenda. Oh wait, hang on... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It will be syndicated throughout the Reach group, of which the Examiner is just a minor component. I don't know if they even have any actual reporters nowadays.

Huddersfield Examiner doesn't exist anymore, no reporters, no nothing, it's all done out of Leeds as Yorkshire Live these days, with very little interest in positive local issues.
