Regardless of the rights or wrongs no-one wants to see a traditional club (Or any club) go to the wall. Hopefully it will all work out OK

The story is about Fev not paying their way, why would he report on the match? Do you expect those reporting on knife crime in London to also say what a great cup of coffee you can get down there and

It's fast becoming a sport between the more reputable journo's as to who can debunk Gledhill the quickest.

Tell me a club that doesn't get a kicking, it's all part of things and it's all sports.

        Featherstone that little pit village between Wakefield and Pontefract have appeared in six Wembley finals.Winning 3 Challenge Cup Finals  v Barrow Bradford and Hull FC and losing two against Workington Town and Warrington.Plus a win over York in the 1895 Cup.How many big city sides would like that record.We had a population of 12000 up to the last few years and it has increased to about 16500 at present.I think we have done quite well but don't expect some posters on here to agree.

Those days are gone.

It's history.

History doesn't pay the bills, it seems.

2003 ? I must have missed that one. 

Don't assume that punctuation has been missed out.  Those little dots and squiggles can change the whole meaning of a sentence.

Plenty of teams seem happy prioritise paying their bills, over chasing a success/promotion that their businesses can't sustain.

Fev's previous success in no-way mitigates where they are now and how they choose to operate.

History does not pay the bills.

That was then. This is now. Up next: the future. Things are just not what they used to be.

Don’t forget fev were kept down to make way for the failed experiment in Paris. Perhaps if they’d been promoted instead they may still be mixing it with the greedy boys

The boys who generate the income and share it with the lower divisions ?

Are you saying that criticism of Featherstone and in particular their owners and management over this long running issue that dates to the end of last season isn’t justified?

Yes a great history, but how long ago was it ? Teams like Barrow and Hunslet also had wembley appearances back then, however the game has changed and moved on. As a Wakey supporter my club also has a great history but again it was all back then. At Wakey many of our supporters remember those past glories and like to dream that they will return. We have a long way to go to get there but things now seem in place to give us hope at least. However at Fev ,I really don't think reality has yet dawned and your first sentence sums it up, a little pit village. There is no doubt Fev have a place in the game, but I am certain it will never be in the top league anymore, unless the game reverts back to part time as it was back in those glory days for the club.

Or someone with a shed load of money comes in and pumps a stupid amount of money in to the club. I guess that is a little bit like Wakefield whom if that hadn't happened recently you have to feel would have been consigned to the Championship for the forseable future.

The reason Featherstone Rovers are not paying players, being late on debts, (etc) is because of PSG RL.

Can you not read the thread?

No.

See there's the thing - Wakey were ###### on the field because the last owner couldn't afford to spend money the club didn't have. It made us uncompetitive and led to our relegation. We paid our bills rather than chase dreams.

Now we have a wealthy owner, so we can pay the bills AND chase dreams.

So you do and good luck to you. But you have had your moments, not paying for the block of flats at the back of the posts wasn't your finest hour.

No mate some people like kicking Feath whether it’s justified or not.

Go on, tell me how many times Wakefield finished bottom...

In fact, tell us all the finishing positions.

Hardly challenging for silverware, but seldom surviving...

I'll wait.
