| I agree, not keen on the hate word, how about:
Championship clubs hate segregation, give us back super league relegation.

| How about having a large RFL printed on a t-shirt with the word 'FAIL' across it as though it had been rubber-stamped?

| Quote: johnny freeman fan club "But that is because the Championship Clubs are geting a great deal less money.
3yrs ago if they had allowed Widnes up do you think they would have done worse than Crusaders even allowing for all the money they threw at them ?
So is it fair to change rules in order to keep the clubs in that they want and deliberatly keep clubs out who may do better than Crusaders , Paris, Gateshead and now Tolouse in for as long as they can till it goes pear shaped.'"
Absolutely, that's spot on. As I say because of the 'current RL climate' I think the RFL have, for the past few years, been making SL stronger and the Champs weaker (plus wasting money on s**te clubs and not lower leagues) because they want a 'shut shop'. Back when there was P&R as Leyther Matt alluded to you could still go up and down a bit easier but simply switching back to that is not as easy nowadays, all through the RFL's fault.
Either way, tag line or not, yours and the ST's idea is spot on and just in doing so so the protest and pressure group is still well recieved over here.

| Listen guys the campaign is launched and our aim was to be thought provoking and controversial to give us a voice. Irrespective of the words Love / Hate etc, I do hate what the RFL have done to the game, my club and the general fan and more importantly the heartlands. I hate the lies and the corrupt behaviour of a nameless few. We will never get everyone on side with the campaign name but it is achieving it's intended response!!
What matters is what we do next, ensuring we work collectively and how we go about it as a group. We as The Trust will lead this and hopefully gain some momentum and support as we move along.
The meeting on Monday should should provide us with an idea of how much local support we have and how much noise RL Fans want to make.

I like this one. Maybe work in a licencing theme somewhere.

| Could list all the RFL experiments that didn't work as well (or at least things/CLubs that have failed with the RFL's input)

| i think the word 'hate' is also a big risk!
it could come across as childish and bitter, but then again i do 'hate' the way the RFL have handled this whole expansion/franchising affair!
so i will back it,
sitting back silent will get us nowhere! well done

| Forget the name of the campaign if you don't like it. It's what it/we represent that's important!! We want our Sport back without dictation and a game ran by a transparent governing body who don't constantly move the goal posts!! Thus is what are campaign is about BACK US AND YOUR CLUB!!

| Good luck Chris.
I just feel, in the cold light of day that our SL licence application up against a SL club's application would lose out every time. Even against crusaders! That is where we, and all championship clubs need to attack this from.
Also the fact that the RFL changed the rules re adminstration to protect crusaders and inadvertantly saved wakefield. Someone needs to ask who would have gone if crusaders hadn't folded.
Also how crusaders can be such a shambles when being run by the RFL.
Last and no means least - they need to be asked what they plan for our competition - if anything at all. An ill planned attempt to place a french expansion team in there? Fail! How many teams will be in our league next year? Fail. Six games to go and no-one knows what there is to play for in the championships! Fail.
Let's not look bitter, let's show the world what a shambles lewis and wood are! Please, drop the hate and forget about us not getting a licence/promoted and use the RFL's other incompetences against them!

| Exactly mate hence why our campaign is about bringing back P&R and ridding our game of this franchising debacle. A return to a sport and excitement!!

| This press release is brilliant. As a Leigh fan I have being going on about the same since the licence system started.
I for one will be fully supporting this challenge.
We must hold the RFL to account about their decisions, inconsistencies and lack of transparency.
To do nothing is not an option.
This will make the RFL sit up and listen. I feel sure there is a huge support for the re-intriduction of P&R.

| Strangely enough, a big part of me would be very happy of we got into super league via a licence. Knowing that everything we'd need to survive is place. Not going for broke to try and get promoted.
Of course the whole licensing thing would have to be run in the correct manner. That is a whole different story!

| While I agree with the principal points raised, I have too many reasons to not want to be involved in this.
Is the Trust been used as a vehicle to carry this "Hate RFL Love P&R Thing"?
The trust has done well raising money over the past year for the u23s (and years gone by for other things) and could potentially damage its reputation.
Is this activity in the interests of a Supporters Trust? Supporters Direct mission statement reads - [i"Our goal is to promote sustainable spectator sports clubs based on supporters' involvement & community ownership"[/i. This to me is nothing to do with the running of the club and the like, and would possibly be better placed as an activity for the supporters club.
