  IMF the outfit that we have to bow down  to with austerity when we owe 2.25 trillion£  Who let USA carry on splashing the cash with a debt of 36 trillion dollars.

That’s probably for a different thread.

The IMF would be great but I’m not sure their skills would be transferable. 

Clearly a Freudian slip on my part but, having said that, the IMF would be far more useful, given the chronic financial state of the game.

we could have done with having them on board when they bailed out the Greeks they could have put in place a demand that RL be officially recognised in with austerity clauses!

About a fortnight ago you said TO were no chance. Have you heard summat?

It is, but in the village that is RL, I suspect everybody else will already know anyway

I think most of us could guess it today, or wouldn't be far off! London out Wakey in for me, no other changes.

I am basing things on what i have seen happening that's all.

He must have missed that Cas think they could get a grade A putting them nowhere near 13th spot.

Changed your tune. You've been saying for ages that it's a done deal that Toulouse are out.

Hunslet statement suggested it'd be tomorrow when they'd find out. I presumed it was because they knew their league position.

Playoffs in League 1? I haven't a clue.

Fits the timeline (a bit) if they needed to submit 10 days ago

Well we know London is doomed, so I hope you are correct that is the only change, yet to be convinced Toulouse is the right fit, the only thing I have heard positive coming out of Toulouse in the last 6 months is Sylvain Houles on the BBC RL podcast saying it is essential that they make SL this term, if they don't I suspect they will be back in the FFR Elite next season.

Yes - I have Salford and Huddersfield marked out as the vulnerable ones. But it's not transparent so who knows? A shock would be fun. Not long now.

Gradings can’t be finalised until after the playoffs. Not sure what the benefit of a ‘provisional’ grading would be before that as all clubs playing performance has to be averaged over 3 complete years and ranked from 1-35.

That does appear to be the general consensus.
