That's one thing that bugs me about this system, if they have the fan base, why does it matter where they are located? |

As a Barrow fan I'd definitely second that. Our crowds are averaging 2,200 this season and likely to rise as the season progresses. I think Haven have had their chance over the last 5 or 6 years and to be fair, don't have a big enough catchment to sustain a competitive SL team. Stadium redevelopment is also on the cards and we actually own Craven Park - an asset on land worth £Millions.
BARROW FOR SUPER LEAGUE 2012 !!!
Spread the word !!!! |

We cant have a 20 +teams league though!
Halifax, Swinton, 3 Cumbrian sides, Featherstone, Widnes, Batley, Leigh and Sheffield are all good traditional clubs but you can't fit them all in. |

I imagine you would! 
If you are averaging such good crowds, they will probably at least double in superleague and another 50% on top with a new stadium. That gets it to around 7-8k. Not bad at all. I think alot of fans would make a weekend out of an away game and bring the family. |

They'll never admit it, but if one team did get into superleague, fans from the other clubs would start to turn up to watch superleague matches and the likes of saints, wigan, leeds and hull play. |

Thats quite a trip from hull! It'd be quicker to london! but the point is a lot of fans would be prepared to go there, but not to wales or london as its Rugby League territory |
