The supporters and away games is an easy target - some club's fans are hardly traveling in their thousands over the Pennines.

They have higher attendances than some heritage SL clubs and seem to have a good business model. You could also argue what do teams like Widnes and Salford currently do for Super League?

Catalans, give the league a French presence. Have very good crowds even when they aren't performing well. And generally is the only place for the French to develop, we have seen France grow stronger as an international side.

But my main reason is the slim chance that if Leigh go down we might keep hold of Ryan for another season!

Do go on...

100% correct ant.

Both. Widnes should have gone down.

However, purely based on performances recently (in the same way Widnes survived, Leigh should stay up. Cats look like they are trying to get relegated.

Huddersfield dont bring any fans either, or wakefield so do you want them kicked out too?

ant1 is posting regarding the title of this thread who's two teams feature in the MPG. He chose Leigh, and gave an explanation as to why. Nowt to do with any other clubs attendances.

It won't let me vote for some reason. Catalans for me, they get bigger crowds, have an academy, expand our reach beyond the M62 corridor, and benefit the international game. Plus they have shown on field potential at times, having made the CC Final once and play offs numerous times. I've nothing against Leigh, but they bring a lot less to SL.

So, we have a club which add some je ne sais qoui to the comp and is a strong vibrant club which people enjoy travelling to or, a club in the shadow of Wigan, in a borough of Wigan, that doesn't have it's own academy.

It's really hard to make your mind up.

Home fixture, partisan crowd, Leigh will stay up.
(unless there is a conspiracy between Sky and the RFL to keep Les Cats in SL

)

Hang on, We've had 1 season crack of the whip in SL, We've put everything we were able to do so in place, and now you want us condemned? I've nothing against Leigh my @R$£. Why don't you offer Catalans a place in SL instead of your team and keep the M62 corridor expanded?
