I'd have a 28 team super league and a championship 1 headed by Leigh.

10 team SL. There's JUST about 10 teams that can justify the name "super".

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

I'm just making a point. Every time someone comes up with the idea of SL1 and SL2, its a fan from one of the clubs who stand to get put in a SL2 as if it's some sort of promotion. Well it's not. SL2 will be the championship with another title. Sky are not going to pay for two super leagues the same and the same issues will face teams.

Anyway I don't know why you're having a go you don't want to be in super league anyway.

Absolutely ridiculous.

If you didn't care, you wouldn't be on here day after day. Being here proves you care.

Like I said in the other thread, Leigh really do deserve better than fans like you who will bail just when they need them the most. We've all threatened to pack it all in when things get bad (emotions always run high amongst fans) but to actually go through with it and then to speak out against the game and club for months after really does take the biscuit.

The problem is I'm not alone, between the current recession and nothing to play for ( thrashing Widnes was always a high point of the season ) attendances are starting to suffer, it no longer excites

My initial contribution to this thread was in the form of humour at your suggestion of keeping your club as far away from playing Leigh as possible, you will notice I havent suggested any permutations or voted on any, I do enjoy the occaisional joust with some on here, but if you read my recent posts you will see a change in their content

So sorry Chris but I will still comment if I see something of interest, it is a free world, and I am certainly not the only armchair fan to post on here

Well it fell at the very first hurdle. I don't define my club in relation to leigh, and this thread was not about keeping my club away from them.

As for the rest of your post, you said it yourself, you're not a fan.

[quote="FlexWheeler":8f22o6ue]The extent of his coaching is ''BASH EM, JUST F*CKING BASH EM. HE'S LOW ON CONFIDENCE, BASH HIM'' He's a limited coach that won't last long term.[/quote:8f22o6ue] .... [quote="rubber duckie":8f22o6ue]That would make Wigan strong favourites then. With Ratchford at FB and Patton with Cronk in the halves, I think we'll do very well without Sam.[/quote:8f22o6ue]:



10 competitive teams, with very few overseas so we can have at least 8 English players in each position competing for England honours. We can also have 5 games a week that are competitive, unlike the current system where the playing talent is spread between so many teams we are lucky to get 2 quality games a week.

I thought you would have a better sense of humour following Widnes, it must be being in SL that is bypassing it now, your getting far too serious, I just took it to mean all those ' beatings ' we gave you were still sore, anyway not wanting to hurt your sensibilities and as you rightly say, me not being a fan, I'll leave it there
