Not to be too high and mighty but a Championship comp without some of the better Championship teams doesn't make it look good. Hopefully the situation allows for a November pre-season training with fans friendlies in January 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites

POR 684 Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 4 minutes ago, kev p said: so how many left in? comp looks unlikely to go ahead. share the cash between championship & league 1 clubs Only Barrow, Bradford, Dewsbury and Leigh have confirmed their entry to the competition, with Batley and the two London clubs still undecided The prize money came from a Super League handout, by way of compensation for the removal of promotion and relegation caused by the cancellation of the season due to the coronavirus pandemic. so no competition probably take it back 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
