| Given the current changeable status of the game AND the unchartered territory we are all now heading in some clubs seen to be taking awfully big risks. I know - a period of quiet reflection and a "wait and see" policy can be equally damaging but some clubs are peddling like billyo to get to the top of the hill only to discover (perhaps) that there's an even bigger hill after that and they've almost crippled themselves with shin splints. Some will have the confidence that they can match the challenge financially while some will be completely winging it. Personally I haven't a clue how the new structure is going to pan out and if it was my money I wouldn't be shelling it like peas right now. I hope that sooner rather than later Championship clubs CAN kick the doors of SL off it's hinges; it will make for a much better game.

SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing

I've been discussing the future on the Bulls site, what a bunch of soft self pitying dips they are, moaning because they are going to be on the wrong side of the promotion equation, I sincerely hope they get mullered by most of the Championship, a fate more likely as it seems they are considering putting Jimmy Lowes in charge

| Surely Bradford will have an immediate financial advantage with parachute money AND (possibly) the biggest attendances in the championships. They must be red hot favourites to go back up? There again, as I said earlier, it's unchartered territory. They'll have to overhaul a current SL club which will have been playing in a supposedly tougher than ever competition. I'm excited at what next year will bring; if not from my own club's point of view then from the gantry of also rans looking down at the gladiatorial bloodbath that is the "middle eight".

I think the Bulls are best positioned to head the championship, with parachute payment, etc. However in order to get back in Superleague they have to be better than the top 4 of the championship and the bottom team in Superleague, which is a tall order unless they strengthen substantially.

| I'm not sure how the new structure will affect those coming down this season. Teams like Halifax, Fev and Leigh know the Championship market are already securing the services of the leagues stand out players. Will Bradford/London etc. be able to afford their current squad or will they be looking to recruit from the Championship?
If the answer to the first question is yes, is their current squad good enough to compete with Leigh, Fev and ourselves?
If they will look to recruit from the Championship to reduce their wage bill, all the top players will have been snapped up. Bradford for Championship 1 in 2016......yes please

The bulls will be fine. They will be better funded next year (reduced sky money this season ) and will probably have the largest crowd figures, which should ensure they have the best squad in the championship.
I have read, on the bulls forum that the overseas quota for championship next season will be increased?

It doesn't really matter though because ALL the world's best players will have signed for Fev by then financed by the 6 or 7 multi-billionaire backers who are all queueing up to beg Nobblyboobs to take their money.

I've suggested they change their ' run out ' music to ' Jilted John ' ,much more appropriate given the current mind set on their position and how unfair it is on them
