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 |

There are two lines of thought on this one
1 That the RFL can invite anybody outside England to apply
2 That even though Toulouse are outside England , because they are in the Championship , then Championship application criteria apply
To tell the truth , they are probably weaker now than they were in 2008 , their attendances have been declining on the back of 3 poor seasons on field , and the numbers of English fans travelling over has dropped from what I have been told
They'd be better back in the Elite 1 playing local derbies with local interest

not a chance. they have to be 'invited' or meet the on the field criteria anyway, neither of which was the case.

Sounds simple doesn't it 
Toulouse in Champ should of helped a pathway to Catalan in SL not sure how much that has been the case? And vice versa. Seems a lot of players (including top ones) have gone back to the French league mind you! |

I think it's time consideration is given to putting Toulouse back in to the French league - the Elite seems to be coming on leaps and bounds and TO seem to be getting left behind a bit (especially when Lezignan can pull in 7,000+ I believe yet TO have been struggling crowd-wise by all accounts). That isn't "flattercapper-ism" but in reality it would save the RFL a fortune in expenses and still allow the pathway through to the Catalans and national side.

Two SL teams in France is vital to the development there. Rivals spur each other on to be better than each other. The RFL should've given TO a license similar to the way they gave one to Catalans which would allow them a period in which to prepare for the top flight.
