| Quote Roy Haggerty="Roy Haggerty"Interesting to see which way they'll jump. On the one hand, I'd bet they'd think it was too far to travel and there won't be many away fans from Wales. On the other, they want more fixtures. If precedent is anything to go by, they'll say ok, as long as the new club doesn't get a fair share of any central funds.'"
I can't see why they would vote against it to be honest. There aren't that many clubs in Championship 1 who take many fans to away games as it is so I don't think that would count against a new Welsh club.
There was talk of possible dual registration of players between any new club and the Crusaders. |

| well done on linking to a site whose address has been added to the swear filter because of its owners' constant spamming of these boards 
But the 'story' doesn't actually add anything we didn't know days ago and which has already been said on this thread.  |

Which is fine, as all clubs can dual register if they so wish now, right? |

| Quote Dico="Dico"Okay, this name calling has got a bit sad.
I called it bare bones picking because it didnt really have any influence on the original point.
I know about the gladiators, i corresponded with that fella who set it up as I was curious about attending. But considering I know kids from sporting backgrounds in the area, including semi pro footballers who didn't know rugby league existed as a sport, their profile is minute. That isn't a discussion point, Chester has almost no (I changed it for you) Rugby League profile, a professional club based down the road, if it saw fit, could possibly change that especially with the football club being pants.'"
You are correct though in saying that Wrexham as a town has closer links to Chester than say Widnes or Warrington, so I do see where you are coming from. |

Up to 4 dual reg signings are allowed, they must be under 23 years of age and outside the top 20 earners in Super League iirc. |

The football club is on the brink.

Think it's 3 dual reg signings and a maximum of four total dual reg and loan players at any one time. |

Wrexham is the big local derby for Chester City though. If the Chester City fans I know are typical, they're far more likely to be making the trip to Warrington, Saints or Widnes than to ever support a team from Wales.
Chester City won't disappear - the ground is council owned and once they can shake off Stephen Vaughan they'll be able to start afresh. |

And the two absolutely despise each other. |

I wasnt necessarily talking direct support, more establishing a profile.
My mates have been out of school a couple of years now so it could have changed but as of 2 or 3 years ago in the various chester schools they attended Rugby League wasnt played, didn't even know it existed.
This a city about 25 miles from heartlands.
They may hate each other in theory but all the wrexham kids go to chester for nights out, wrexham kids often go to school in chester (along with places like frodsham, Helsby and so on, places next to the heartlands with no RL influence), socialise together etc It was just a thought, it didnt need the pedantic brigade
