There are 3 teams in Wakefiekd  2 in Hull, 2 in Wigan. Several in Leeds.

It's perhaps worth remembering that there are several football clubs in Glasgow.  Indeed football in scotland is centred around the M8 Corridor!

That's a good point.

Also in Scotland teams often aren't called the same name as the town or city they play. 

The name itself becomes the brand such as Hearts or Hibs. There is an Edinburgh City team but they get tiny crowds and hardly anyone has heard of them. A name doesn't necessarily guarantee interest.

I wonder if there will be any salary cap breaches by the bottom clubs who stayed up?

If I remember correctly they didnt attempt to avoid finishing bottom because they was not how relegation was decided. 

They recruited for the plays offs I think. 

They had to play the system that was there. Whoever finished bottom was irrelevant.

Actually that's one of the things I really admire about them, they are very adaptable at survival.

Whilst Webster came out and blatantly said we were concentrating on the middle 8's quite early on in the season, the team was attrocious and had it been straight relegation they still would've finished bottom.

It's a live cap? If you don't have the space you cant register the player.

I dunno, who signed new players?

Yes but this is rugby league and we have a ‘dead’ live cap so I presume anything could happen...
