[QUOTE="jeffb, post: 204550"] Cas or Wakey, take your pick :D Jeff Must disagree with that, the squad is there and can compete with the lower end sides in the Super League without a doubt. Iestyn Harris has announced that he would join the Crusaders if they get their licencse! Yes he maybe old but he can still strut his stuff. The coaching set up is now in force and the Crusaders now have a good academy system that will train players up. The facilities are the only real problem but again this has been addressed! The stadium is not the greatest but there are plans afoot to build a new one possibly in Bridgend or in and around that area. Rugby League in Wales may seem obscure but many of the universities play it now and I can tell you that it is popular and is played in vast numbers. To be honest I feel that alot of people feel a tad threatend by the Crusaders for some odd reason. At the end of the day they have thrown themselves towards becoming a Franchise in the Super League and I reckon they will be a good team for the league. The Crusaders are ready now, I still cant quite understand by not being ready? They have already proven themselves to be a good outfit and I firmly believe that they deserve a go over teams like Widnes and Leigh! The Crusaders have the finanical power and when they get their licencse the team will take off and the fans will come to games, Millenium Magic this year had a fair few new fans from Wales, me included in that and I can again tell you that the game is growing in Wales, not much so in North Wales but down South it does look promising! C'mon the Crusaders! [/b][/quote] I'm not knocking Celtic, but i think they will get battered week in and week out, and most people will not want to watch a team battered home and away, I know i wouldn't. Yes, they might have a few victories, but they will be at the bottom most of the time. As for derserving a place over Widnes or Leigh, that to me is just plain wrong. What about League history and heritage, your saying it means **** your history or heritage, if Celtic get in. Give Celtic, another 3 years to prove they are viable. Beacause like i said earlier history will repeat itself. [/QUOTE]
