Yeah good point Ford was direct of rugby. He probs is past his best to be honest.

I take it Chisholm doesn't get on with Ford?

That's devastating for Halifax that is. They've suffered fan drop off massively from previous licencing and other shenanigans.....they were starting to recover step by step like most clubs during the sports recovery to a competitive system. Shame it didn't last long.

They need 3rd party inspectors at the turnstiles doing unannounced spot checks. Otherwise figures are to be taken with a pince of salt, and if that's the case shouldn't be used, and probably a legal case will be brought forward that they can't be used when clubs are excluded based on notional numbers, loss of earnings.

How many teams should SL have?

A very weak team full of poor players could be full of entertaining crack pots full of charisma and tons of social media followers.....might do better for the sports fortunes than a team full of boring robots that churns out reasonable results -

Bang on -
We can be certain SL is gonna have collateral damage on this kind of scale moving forward so it's a waiting game again its sad when its to be that way. Bradford Bulls...... Paris Saint-Germain........ Gateshead Thunder...... Huddersfield-Sheffield Giants .... Widnes Vikings...... Harlequins ........ Celtic Crusaders..... Toronto Wolfpack...... All absolutely massive super league clubs if I remember rightly......

Any high grade B, Toulouse, Featherstone, Bradford, York, Widnes....would have had a crack at staying in SL just from SL status. Except London, SL status isn't gonna give them enough of an img boost come next rankings. Now it's almost impossible from all on the outside. Except perhaps those with recent residue SL status like Cas & Wakey.

They are playing things like football and basketball in all the other local authority areas because they are less physically demanding, can be played without recruiting a large number of core players (I.e small sided which is not much different from playing the full version of the game compared to say touch rugby) ......and it can be played on a variety of surfaces both indoor and outdoor......its mission impossible to start something great and important.

It says maximise growth in the largest markets.....just plonking a club in a large market and means nowt....but this gets rewarded and staying in a town you have been in for over a hundred years but 2 other clubs are deemed to be in that market (they are saying the market is merely the Wakefield metro Council) that gets punished. So Fev could move to Dubai or Las Vegas set up shop but see reduced product sales. But hey ho we got rewarded it's all a tad daft.
