Quote: BigRob "You're right, but the problem then comes that we either cut down on squad sizes, which obviously means less strength in depth or we reduce the wages of all players and accept the fact that more top players will go to Union.
In my opinion we need to develop and expand the sport into new areas and try and eventually get all clubs to an average crowd of around 9 or 10,000. Only at that level (in my opinion) will a club really be consistently competitive.'"
We will never have all clubs reaching that attendance whilst the administrators of our great game keep changing the goalposts year after year, the sport now is pretty much a laughing stock. I for one will tyurn my back on the game if we don't get down to a period of settling down, we are on the 1st round of franchises and already talk of changing the league size again, how about giving the current format a chance 1st? The people that run our sport have no idea at all. Keep up with this and i along with many others no doubt will be lured back to puffball. icon_cry.gif

If you can't beat them don't join them Just post rumours on forums:10084.jpg



Regarding that YP reporthttp://www.yorkshirepost.co.uk/rugby-league/Super-League-clubs-have-rethink.6054234.jprl

Is the bit about a Co-op club being certain to be promoted something that has ever been officially stated, or the YP's own slant on things?

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike 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 That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



Quote: Khlav Kalash "To be fair councils like Wigan and Halton have grounds built, the teams were just the beneficiaries, although with Leigh I’m not so sure they feel they have benefited with the move (starbug will no doubt correct me if wrong).'"



So far it would seem that outside the top tier , getting a new stadium isn't of any great help at all , they make it more difficult to create atmosphere , and while they might have excellent corporate facilities , outside SL there isnt actually the need for those facilities , they also cost more to play in , and as the clubs usually dont have any say in how they are run they tend to alienate the fan base

Basically they are not good unless they are at least 50 % full , so for the vast majority of Championship clubs a stadium of around 4/5,000 capacity would be better
