hmmm.. let me see South Wales has not turned out in numbers like the south of France for Super League Expansion??? who would have guessed that... however much the "northern" game wants & wishes to expand the core & loyal i.e. fan who will pay to see... is located in the North of this Isle. What if Leigh/Featherstone/Widnes or Halifax has been given the same funding & better Visa advice? Crowds better than 4k per home game would have been acheived, simply by by better away support alone, expand yes but small steps, if Wrexham had been the first step then yes a NL1 team 2 years ago would have been a good step.... but now to save face it is regression with Leigh and Widnes within spitting distance its laughable. Maybe a North Wales Wrexham "crusaders" will work in 2/3 time but it may have slowed or severed rugby league heartland (teams) to a slow beat in the process. We all want the game to expand but don't cut off the roots or the tree won't grow....

widnes should be put in SL, if only to shut up the whinging of their fans spoiling any thread not concerning them

You should be made King of RLFANS.COM in that case.

Did you not know? tb is the king of message board patronisation... He sits there rubbing his hands with glee with each demeaning comment he idly throws..

well, at least this thread has exposed a fair amount of flatcap hypocrisy

see the post above for a fairly funny example

There are more than enough threads being derailed on here into personal spats - so everybody: reign in the personal attacks.

I thank you
