Quote: HXSparky "Errm, Widnes went up when the Crusaders collapsed, but I can't remember anyone else being promoted under the "old system"? Licensing started in 2009, and no-one ever replaced a SL team that was still solvent.
The new system is far from perfect, and may need some serious financial backing of a Championship team to make it, but it's far better than the closed shop that we had under franchising.'"
Yeah, great.

Started in 2009, one club goes bust in 2012 which makes things easy, by 2015, we've got a new system. We hardly gave it much of a trial, did we ?
That's one of the problems with the game, we decide something, decide it's carp and change it at the next meeting. All the RFL (and by that I mean the clubs) are proving is that they don't know what they're doing.
