The Blues Ox Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 People are forgetting though when everything is taken in to account regarding 2 leagues of ten, Leigh's team this season would still be good enough to beat most of this years SL teams.

Is it top ten SL clubs clubs in top league . Then the bottom 2 Sl clubs and top 8 in championship for second league . Or is it invitational ? Save me a fortune if it does. I’ll cancel Sky Sports and Premier Sports. SL is ###### as it is and I can’t see two leagues of 10 improving it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hull Kingston Bronco Posted December 2, 2021 Share Posted December 2, 2021 It’s a ridiculous idea, we don’t have 20 (or 18 given the French) full-time-capable clubs in this country, but we’ve more than 8… why on earth would we exclude 2 clubs from the top league that can compete in it, to make 2 or 3 (that can’t) feel better by telling them they are now in “Super League 2 (shhhh, say that last but quietly…)”; padded out by another 5 who would get battered each week? Another nonsense-on-a-stick idea from people who’s level of strategic thinking is limited to “how can I make those people from Featherstone and Halifax stop moaning at me on the golf course” Apparently this site says I "won the day" here on 23rd Jan, 19th Jan, 9th Jan also 13th December, whatever any of that means. Anyway, 4 times in a few weeks? The forum must be going to the dogs - you people need to seriously up your game. Where's Dutoni when you need him?

This would grow the game imo, but as I said I think a league of 10 would be a mistake. Wigan,St Helens, Warrington, Huddersfield are not cities never mind big cities lol, you never fail to amaze me.

Another pathetic comment ffs if you are good enough you go up. Reward success on the pitch not on geography/wealthy owners . Why would York or Newcastle add more ? Last season they weren’t good enough to challenge the top of the Championship. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I do think Wakefield have a lot of potential and are going the right way. They have shown in the past that they can get good crowds for one off big games and with 2 new stands and all the increased income streams they will be a club transformed. As you say if we were looking at reasonable size places for SL Wakefield would certainly be up there. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
