| I have no problems with a "village" team, when ever you get a large group of RL fans together "Classy Cas'" quickly emerge as everyones' (well the majority, lmao) "second" team.
Hughes, 'Fax?? Yep, an absolute fortune, it's unbelievable really that a successful businessman could blow so much and get so many fundamentals wrong, I'd pee myself laughing if I wasn't a London fan.

| Quote Worlds Apart="Worlds Apart"The amount of vindctive rubbish on here is unbelievable. 'I want that club to go down because I don't like them, even though the league as a whole would be worse without them'. The mentality that is ensuring RL will never be what it could be in the UK.
London & Wakefield. Both are not commercially viable entities, both are poorly supported.
As for those arguing for Bradford & Salford - the one that until recently had five-figure home crowds, the other will a multimillionaire owner wanting to create success for RL in the largest city in the North of England - wake the feck up.'"
Excellent post

If the poll had an end date, wigan would turn up when it mattered most and overtake the front runner to win at the end.

| Quote Starbug="Starbug"Then they dont, simple as, why the concern? , I'm sure you werent concerned before?
You messed up, tough, if you ( your club, owners ,sponsors and support ) arent strong, loyal enough to build yourself back, you stay down with us and enjoy your RL'"
Or they don't stay down there and the game loses fans ,money and a club and you can pretend your idiotic logic that because nobody in Bradford wants to watch a part-time competition against village sides they don't 'deserve' SL is anything other than bitter, vindictive tall poppy syndrome.
It's especially hypocritical coming from you, who has argued long and hard for many many hours that it was only the dream of getting out of the part-time pit village league that kept these part-time pit village clubs alive, yet you think Bradford should accept the opposite with good grace? You want to start moralising and doing down Bradford fans for not being loyal enough to stick by a club being kicked from pillar to post, talk of being loyal coming from a man who brags about not going to games any more just because he doesn't like the league structure?
Ha, I'm embarrassed for you

| Quote bewareshadows="bewareshadows"If that is the case then the village teams will not be going up, so what is lost. We had to go down to 12 according to many.
It's strange how lower salary cap restraints are only concerning to SL clubs likely to be relegated. There was little concern before.
Although the gap will be now where near what it is currently. Personally I'd just scrap the salary cap and have a break even cap, then Championship clubs can spend up to their revenue.'"
Stability, long term planning, the focus on youth, the focus on competing at the top not just surviving at the bottom, stability of income, the ability to negotiate long term deals, any ability to expand in any planned way, the ability to grow in any planned way, the ability for long term planning and marketing of events as nobody knows who would be in them, etc etc,
That's what's lost

Dont be, you have plenty of your own stuff to be embarrased for
There are several reasons I am not currently Regularily attending Leighs Championship matches ,mostly due to boredom and a lack of intensity , and that might well change with the new structure

Bradford(21) hull fc (1icon_cool.gif and Saints(17) the last of which was the most recent in 2008.
For superleague games and a clubs longest winning runs anyway (I can't be bothered to put more effort in than that)
