So desperate are we for the proverbial silver bullet, that we keep making ever more desperate changes.
To think that pre SL we had a 16 club top flight which looks like becoming a 10 club top flight (and may include 2 French clubs).
The fans have on numerous occasions been stuffed and the delusional thinking that believes cutting SL further will suddenly have fans flocking back is beyond me.
IF 2 clubs are cast adrift, their support will inevitably drop and whilst the SL average attendance MAY edge upwards, the total numbers watching RL will fall - it's not rocket science
From 16 to 14 to 12 and now to 10 is just ridiculous.
Eventually, if pro RL survives, there will be Leeds, Wigan Wire and Saints left playing amongst themselves and they will sitll be wanting a greater slice of the TV monies. Maybe they could dig up Ted Rogers and have 3,2,1.
I'd rather have Dusty Bin running the game at the moment !!!
Yes, 10 clubs is not enough in my opinion, and it seems a desperate plight to expand to 20 clubs by default. It would have been far Easier just to have 14 clubs, 26 fixtures, 1 up and 1 down with the 2 promoted clubs growing due to the increased revenue generated by Sky monies and gate receipts.
Id even bin Magic to be honest as this skews relegation and even the premiers and top 6 to be honest, or maybe replace it for a 7's or nines comp.
Championship, 14 team comp too, 1 up. Give the model 3 years and see how it goes. SL needs fresh blood. Fev and Toulouse could give it a good go, and Leigh could consolidate more.
In all, a good post by Wrencat !

His mode of operating has been to run two trolls (see Slient H and Steph Curry) on the same site, so if one gets a ban the other can carry on which didn't work last time but is working now.
He can currently troll both sites, so he's probably very pleased indeed at that................ One over on the Mods......'"
Please leave me out of your gossip column.

| The way the game is run is nothing short of a farce. No vision, no future planning. Its just make it up as one goes along.

If it happens it won't last long, because this is rugby league.

| Take you pick from 2 leagues of 10, 12 or 14. The Australian model, promotion & relegation or franchising, play offs with 4, 5, 6 or 8 teams, FPTP, some will like it, others won’t. There isn’t one model that will satisfy all.
Personally I quite like the idea of franchising 20 teams into 2 divisions of 10. Play each team in your group twice and each team in the other once. Promotion and relegation between the 2. Top 5 playoff in each to determine the champions and the bottom of the top tier is relegated.
Review the franchises every X years where any team which has finished in the bottom 2 or 3 of the second tier has to bid and new teams can apply for the next period.
All I really long for though is a stable format that we stick with as this changing every 4 or 5 years does my head in.

| Is there any truth in the rumours that the CC will be restructured into a champions league style format?
