For me it would be to get to 2 full time leagues. P&R between Superleague 1 and 2; apply for re-election (points based system) to go between National Elite and SL2.

So which clubs in the second tier are likely to be able to get to support full time Rugby League and add to the competition.

Barrow
Sheffield
South Wales (if it can represent the whole of South Wales - we need a team to tap into the player pool down there like we did in the good old days. A Gus Risman for the 21st Century to take a new Cumbria team to winners of the Challenge Cup in 7 years).

Big city Conference Clubs that may really step up into Championship 1 in the future.

Edinburgh Eagles (unbeaten in the regular season last year and this year) - They were the club rumoured to be joining NL2 a few seasons ago.

Would love to say
Coventry Bears (Butts Arena had RL played there prior to WW1 and would make a great Championship ground although probably not big enough for SL). They are Midlands Grand Finalists yet again.
Nottingham Outlaws - Doing OK in the National Conference and the area has experience semi-pro Rugby in the past.

Mergers / Joint Ventures

West Cumbria Atoms (joint venture Town;Haven and Wealthy Backers).

Other Sporting Clubs who are rumoured to express an interest in an RL Side

Paris Stade Francais
Barcelona (connection with Les Catalans)

So for me I'd like to see

Barcelona
Barrow
Bradford Northern
Castleford
Coventry Bears
Edinburgh Eagles
Huddersfield
Hull
Hull KR
Leeds
Les Catalans
London Broncos
Nottingham Outlaws
Sheffield Eagles
Paris Stade Francais
Salford [can't believe people would want to drop the team of Lance Todd - The Toddy Toddlers in the 1930s predating the 1950s Busby Babes down the road - Potential in the new Stadium and outreach to Manchester].
Sheffield Eagles
St Helens
Toulouse [Promised a position SL1 with the other Paris. Doing OK in a mixed semi-pro full time league].
Wakefield Trinity [aren't they the biggest City without professional Association Football; seems like bags of untapped potential even though they're an established SL club]
West Cumbria Atoms
Warrington
Wigan
Wrexham

Making 24 teams - so two leagues of 12.

The best idea was Albert Rosenfeld suggesting Salford rename to Manchester United RLFC. icon_lol.gif

I think they should be called the Reds, or City Reds, because that way, you don't have 'Manchestoh' getting them annoyed, but don't have Salford, restricting the fan base.

You could apply the same logic to every team, giving an ideal Super League of...

Reds
Blues
Greens
Whites
Blacks
Yellows
Oranges
Purples
Pinks
Turquoises
Puces
Vermillions
Cerises
Magnolias
White With A Hint of Apples

Watch the fans flood in!
