Yes, their onfield performances are a part of the criteria.

It don't matter how poor you are on the field it's what you can present infront of the RFL how your performing off the field.

If it went on how poor teams are on the field then Widnes wouldn't have won promotion.

They should certainly consider themselves a little fortunate, although their current crowds and recent history should in theory keep them away from the drop. But in years to come, who knows? Some clubs are improving, others are stagnating. Odsal is a dump and there is a lot to be done at the club.

this will be the 3rd year in succession that they've finished lower then us. Not much emphasis does get put on any side to drop out other then Cas & Wakefield. For me, one or two others should be in the same limelight (Crusaders, Salford, even KR to an extent).

Yep, but Bradford is a big city, unlike the parochial minnows of Castleford & Wakefield.

In the master plan, West Yorkshire will be represented by Leeds, Bradford & Huddersfield.

You really need to get with the agenda

.

I don't think thats what the poster i quoted was getting at but thanks anyway



If you can't keep up, stay out.

Nah it can't work that way. Wakey have to go because they are the weakest link.

not a chance. way too big to go down

no definately not.
but they have definately gone backwards a very long way in a very short time.
another few years of this and they could find themselves compromised.

do we really need three teams from west yorkshire?

or am i a chapter ahead of you on the agenda

Look at how points are worked out for the licenses.

No is the answer you'll get.

Unlikely to be vulnerable this time round - although without the pledge campaign and if the RFL decide to elevate two clubs not one then I think we could have been.

2014? If things do not improve significantly then I doubt we will even make it that far without a rich owner. And we'd be pole position for the chop even if we did.
