Quote: ricardo07 "The RFL have finally got a competition where all its teams in Super League were competitive.
So bite the bullet and expand the league to 13 next year and 14 eventually.
London have added so much to the game this year and have become many people's 2nd team.
Relegation will undo so much work.
Come on RFL......wake up.'"
I tend to agree with you mate.
"We" should have gone to 14 clubs at the last shake up and done away with the "loop" fixtures.
We keep hearing how its so important to have London in the comp and they have been very good value for their place this season and Toronto, much as I still dont believe they should be in "our" comp, have to be in the top flight, if only to actually prove that there is any sense in having a pan-Atlantic comp and if The RFL cant sell this to Sky, it's time that someone else took the reigns
Having said that, while ever there is relegation (and promotion) there will always be winners and losers.
In may respects it would have been better if London (or someone else) had been tailed off last, rather than the dog fight that we have all witnessed but, relegation hurts and can often really damage the club that goes down.
London have gained the utmost respect for their efforts this season and nobody wanted them to drop but, in the words of Esther Rantzen, "That's Life".
