Quote: Donnyman "If they can find the money to have showcase games across Europe, then maybe it will pull in more people who want to play RL to a good level and it could be a source for new talent here. That's exactly what we need. Your record sadly is one of supporting the idea the top English talent here in Superleague all being offloaded to clubs in America and Europe to boost some sort of fantasy league.

There is very little point in having none UK teams in the below Super League and especially League 1. If I was a fan of a team outside Super League I would be pretty fed up of losing to a full time team that is only in the league to jump through some hoops. League 1 for example have had Toronto (2017), Toulouse (2016) and to a certain extent Bradford (201icon_cool.gif. They get a two year break in 2019 and the soon to be quashed 2020 season then Ottawa (2021) and New York (2020). It is almost as if we are punishing fans for supporting teams at this level. I can understand why there is no desire to have Valencia/Belgrade/Verona who are either going to be full time money sides or more likely massively under-skilled teams made up of European amateur players.
Having a separate comp for these teams makes a lot more sense and entering in full time teams at a higher level will do a lot for League 1.
Oh dear that's just baiting people. Are you a serious poster? I thought you would welcome this?.
