[QUOTE="valley commando, post: 731497, member: 72217"] My final and definitive word on this (hopefully) Ponty had loads of good media coverage re the BIC in the last couple of years, something the Regions and WRU werent happy about, ie taking the limelite away from the plastic regions, also PONTY WAS ABLE TO RUN THE CLUB IN THE BLACK, unlike most another region for jealousy. And so the WRUin, Gareth perfect hair Davies and the mark 1 and 2 piemen have contrived to teach Ponty a lesson. I have no ill feeling towards Merthyr, or indeed any players going there, but have the Merthyr committee thought of how they will sustain their mega wage bill should pieman 2 either pull out in a couple of years or pass away (hes getting on a bit) They wont get enough through the gate to sustain the wages should that happen and will then go under. next who the hell are going to watch region A sides in the BIC maybe a couple of hundred, are the premier clubs getting any compo for not being able to play in the BIC, a major revenue stream taken away. Also you pro piemen/ Blues followers keep saying its only Ponty against these changes, speaking to other clubs they feel the same but are worried about how their respective regions will act iof they become vocal. So essentially Ponty are the only club with big enough balls to say it how it is. Not to long ago perfect hair was talking of the regions joining the Aviva, singing to a different tune currently. In the past pieman 1 threatened to take the WRU to court if changes he wasnt happy with were implemented, now he is instrumental in changes which are being rushed through to help pieman 2 and the Merthyr project, ie A licence promotion to prem etc. This ******** will lead to the demise of club rugby as we now know it.
