A great shame. I wonder if a new club will be promoted to take their place?

do you follow the amateur game?
who do you think could step up to semi pro?

Bramley I guess. Or there could be a new club waiting to be formed like Scorpions were last year.

another french club perhaps.
it would be interesting what the chairmen of the clubs in CC1 would say to that.

Sad day dont really know what to say ive watched the club from the Lancashire Lynx days at PNE through to Chorley...now its the end .....

The Tangarine dream dies again.......hope all the players find new clubs...wonder what my cousin will do now.

It's not soooooooperdooooper league so most on here wouldn't /couldn't care less.

The futures looking rosy!

Change the record FFS, how do you not bore yourself?

A very sad day for RL in England.
Losing a club is never good for any sport.

Very sad for all the seasiders fans, it's certainly not easy for them and we can only hope that in some shape or form they have a side next season! A sad day in RL!

I'd like to see an enterprising club in the north west grasp this chance to keep these fans' RL passions alive by offering them some sort of incentive to keep watching the game. A free 2011 season ticket to anyone who held a Panthers season ticket in 2010 could be a very sensible idea; it may only be for a few dozen or so, but keeps their connection to the game going.

Ideally, I'd love a new club to be formed in the area (or big support given to the remaining clubs on the Fylde) but I can't really see it starting from strong foundations after the struggles that have followed the club from Chorley to Blackpool.

I'll certainly miss going to the games. I wonder whether they'll persist with the Northern Rail 9s and National Cup Finals at The Woodlands next year, now that it effectively isn't an RL base?

shame Hemel dont seem capable of building a stand any time soon. if ever.

Quite simply clubs cannot operate without money , then the issue comes to where that money comes from ?

In sport [ at pro and semi pro level ] you are either a business or a charity

Unfortunatly we seem to have more charities than businesses

Until more clubs start to become businesses this will continue

A shame to see any club not able to carry on , be they in Blackpool or Bridgend

Give bramley a chance imo

Another club in Leeds ? do you seriously think that would be encouraged by the RFL ?
