But there is now a way back. Remember when leigh benefited from the Gateshead crash n burn? It felt like crapola.... but leigh came back and now have a route back to the big time..... .'"
This is what I like to refer to as
[iSelective Memory[/i , Leigh finished 3rd bottom, safe in any
[iNormal League[/i , yet due to RFL Expansionists & having the French in the Division *who were exempt just as Catalan had been in SL* we were thrust down into that false position.
What I will say to Bulls fans or those of the rest of Championship RL is that Championship RL is very strong, way beyond the level that most SL fans perceive it to be, while SL appears weaker than ever before.
There is
[iNo Shame[/i in playing Championship RL, yes the top Clubs aspire to SL & always will but there is enough quality here to enjoy the game.
All of RL Land is crying out for meaningful change whereby consistently dominant Clubs are not excluded from the top table as they have been *not just Leigh* & where Clubs who have big or at least solid core support are rewarded with opportunities.
3 things need to happen IMHO.
1. Auto Promotion for 1st Place.
2. Scrap dual registration
3. Every Club from SL & Championship to run a full Academy team.
4. 2nd place Championship play off v 11th SL *Home & Away*
OK, 4 ... 4 things need to happen.
5. Wakefield expelled from SL
OK, 5 .... 5 things need to happen.
