What I meant there FA (probably not written very well) was that all we or Leigh had to do to get into the £1m game was to finish at the top of our championship league of 4 teams assuming the 4 SL teams will take positions 1-4 which they did and probably should do if all went to plan.
It turned out like two competitions with the top of CH. playing the bottom of the SL.

This year will probably be the same to get that 5th place. Be the top CH club. Once Leigh had imploded we would have had to have been poor not to get into the £1m game.
That is why I don't see it as a massive achievement to get there. Just be better than Leigh. I don't mean to talk down the other two clubs but in reality it should be us or Leigh again. Beat Leigh and the other two and we are there.

That is how I see it. I do agree with your point above about finishing top in the championship as any advantage over Leigh and the bottom SL club is vital and could just be the difference.

That would be interesting. Presumably then we could sue the RFL as our landlords for leasing us premises unfit for purpose? icon_twisted.gif

We haven't sued anybody for absolutely ages

Quote: Bulls4Champs "Us, Leigh, Fax?'"


Leigh? Brand new ground? Why wouldn't that fit the bill?

Us & Fax - far from perfect, but both previously SL grounds?! No worse than HKR or Wakey for example....

Pollsters doing Excellent job - say recent polls.:



Quote: Bulls4Champs "Its ridiculous. How many teams in the Championship would get their promotion rejected because their ground is not fit for purpose?

London and Sheffield haven't even got grounds but sure they could play at a Football ground.

Then there's the question of can Fax and Sheffield afford to run a SL squad?
Im not sure they could, I hope they could but we couldn't at the back end and our crowds are a lot bigger than theirs.

The P and R system is grossly unfair,the only thing it rewards is poor form with a chance to redeem yourself against inferior opposition and a one off shot against superior opposition providing your form doesn't drop off in M8's.'"


The stadium rules were to fit with franchising criteria I think. We no longer have franchising so, logically, (I know!) there shouldn't be an RFL stadium requirement anymore....

I assume he means those are the ones that ARE fit, rather than not fit. As they're probably the 3 best grounds in the division.
