| Quote Gaslight="Gaslight"So being the best commercial manager doesn't make you the best now does it? Right oh
Or the fact a small town team gets some of the biggest sponsors in the game without winning things?
You really are beyond simple and this is the last time I waste my time explaining something to a simpleton like yourself, run along now.'"
It dosent mean that you bring in the most commercial revenue though does it? I mean i bet you were awarded a prize from your mum saying you were clever, when you clearly arent. And how could you with your limited ageing stadium. And you don't know what other clubs bring in with regards to sponsorship do you? If you do let's have the details?

Ladies & gentlemen, this is why you don't put lead paint in the nursery!
Commercial success is making money relative to your facilities, the fact Cas pull in money that exceeds the so called "top" teams shows that the Castleford commercial department is far above anyone elses.
But the fact you're too stupid to realise it's the amount of money you make relative to facilities & size, not how much money you make overall, the RFL knows this and that's one of the important things, not some pond life like you.

So yet again you provide no evidence to back up your stupid claims do you? Is this the same guy who arranged your main shirt deal with someone who wasnt allowed to make the deal?
Come on, list every clubs sponsorship and comercial income? Or are you now backing down from your statement that your club has the biggest sponosorship and comercial deals in RL?

| Quote Starbug="Starbug"A simple scenario
Take Fax out of the equation , and you have 14 clubs for 13 places , which means an elimination process , very negative
Put Fax in and you have an application process , can be ' spun ' as positive
The RFL were desperate to have clubs applying from the Championship [ otherwise it doesn't look very good if only one club passes the criteria to the point where they encouraged Fax to post a 5,000 odd attendance at their last league match by giving away several thousand tickets at a county fair to people whi did not attend
If Barrow failed on the set down criteria , why have the RFL even let them apply ? , it was pointless , but it has allowed them to have a ' competition ' with one club ' winning ' , one club ' eliminated ' , and one club given a second chance
So Fax are just there to give the licence process a bit of credibility , it really is pathetic
So basically people , you are safe as long as you ' beat ' Wakey , if you cant do that given their current situation , then you really dont deserve SL do you ?
All the best'"
So Salford beat us hands down then do they?

| Even our application should be stronger than Halifax's.
The RFL are just saying "yeah, course we'll still consider it" in the same way that the man in the lottery shop says, "yeah, course you can have a lucky dip". Still no chance of winning it.

| Quote Mr Cas="Mr Cas"Like i say im going on what the RFL have said, its not my opinion its the fact that they have come out and said they meet all the criteria so how can they justify not promoting them in July?
[uIm not really up on all the requirements so im probabaly wrong with what im saying so feel free to correct me[/u. But what im saying is even though the rest of our bid is great, we dont meet all the criteria as we dont have a stadium and wont be judged on it as we won't be in it 2012. While they have said Fax meet all the criteria. '"
Yes you are so I will
Cas [udo[/u meet the minimum criteria to be considered otherwise they wouldn't have been awarded a franchise at the last time of asking or been promoted from NL1 in 2005 and 2007.
As has been noted elsewhere, the RFL select the best 13 bids of the 15 that have been made. The only criteria that Halifax are ahead of Cas in is the stadium and thats hardly by a great deal, Cas win hands down in every other aspect.

Because they could get used to the application process, and could act on the feedback given to them by the RFL - giving them areas to focus on over the next three years before they apply again.
Steve O'Connor has been very vocal in explaining that the focus Widnes have put into youth development has been a direct result of RFL feedback from the last application process.

Not hands down , no , but quite simply because of the stadium at Barton actually being built as we speak , they are now safe

Are you being serious ? , any club can request at any time to speak to the RFL and ask exactly what they need to improve on to stand a better chance at the next round of licence applications , it doesn't come under the official state secrets act
They could ' get used to the application process ' , why can they not read and write very well ?
Stop making things up using RFL bullsheite speak
