maybe they earned the right to be in super league,and did not buy a place,or just get placed in it in the first place.

In your opinion. Amount of people who watch the games prove otherwise

Why? Huddersfield have a stadium but no fans

Plenty of people watch X factor, strictly and Britains got talent and countless other boring crap

Pretentious pillock

Who cares?

You may think so but isn't the main point that those sports do just fine without promotion and relegation.

One tries to argue with that sports needs promotion and relegation yet there is enough evidence out there which proves otherwise.



Does that happen in the NRL. I fail to see how having no P&R means clubs cannot strive to do better?

We have a salaried cap competition so in theory should be able to produce a competition where a team can finish 8th and still reach the Grand Final like the Queensland cowboys have done so. 8th plays 1st in Australia.

How can that be not be called exciting?

Leeds Rhino's finished 9th last season. Now in a licensing model can anyone tell me those players and staff would be any less hungry to bounce back this year?

Surely you don't believe that Leeds would of just accepted 9th and this year not gave a damn and happy to finish closer to the bottom?

But what about the championship

would you say this if you was a fev, fax or bulls fan. Probably not franchiseimg will kill us off like it did a few clubs last time

Think of the away days London, Toronto, Toulouse and maybe Perpignan, oh yes and Batley, Fev and Halifax etc

You cant sight Bradford as failing under franchising, they have failed under every system, even before franchising was ever dreamed up.

On a more serious note, promoted clubs would have more chance of survival if it was 1 up 1 down, which could still be decided by a MPG but, this would leave a conundrum as to how to fill the fixture programme, unless we had the innovative play everyone twice (both home and away) and then have play off semi finals and a GF or, declare the top side as champions

At my ripe old age, that has a familiar ring to it.

Ah the good old days when every team attracted crowds - and virtually every team provided members of the international squad! Of course, there was no P&R, as every team was in one big league!

Indeed , feel free to move to those other country's to watch those other sports

It's a free world
