York ending Newcastle Thunder link

[Wakefield Ram]

According to the main forum, Newcastle are going back to part-time next season as the new York owners don't see the need to run a FT team and Championship salary cap is £500K. 

Might make next Sunday a bit more interesting, as I expect most/all their players will be leaving at the end of the season.

Don't go on Sunday.  You'll be lonely.

I can't make it anyway

Lets hope they play like they did 2nd half v Batley....but without the 1st half tackling.
