Nate90 Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 What a boring yet sensible choice. I hope Beaumont doesn't repeat what he did in 2018 with the contracts. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robin Evans Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 I'm not disheartened by that. Fev would not have stayed up. Now, one of the strongest teams in the league is out of the way. Fev just need to win the championship next year now. Sorted. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Every applicant had pros and cons, and for whatever reason they've gone for a suburb of Wigan. But that is a whole lot better than Bradford or Featherstone. My worry now is LB have left it too late to get the necessary quality on board to push for promotion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dave T Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 Can we dust down that Bradford Bulls thread where everyone told us they were nailed on and it was a fix?

Toby Chopra Posted December 14, 2020 Share Posted December 14, 2020 The obvious choice when set against the narrow criteria of which club will most likely be able to piece together a half competitive team in 2021. Leigh will be able to generate the revenues, along with owner support, that will give them half a chance, although whether it will be a enough I don't know. This decision is only about getting a 12th team on the field in 2021 that isn't a competitive basketcase. There's no point speculating about what it means for Leigh, Superleague or the sport as a whole beyond that. It is what it is. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As predicted on that, people spout off, then don't mention it again when it doesn't materialise. I thought it was a fix at the time - and I do actually think if Bradford could have pulled a few more things together then they'd have got in (it's a reflection of how far they've fallen that they had nothing) - and am happy to say I got that wrong.
