So who woukd be the two clubs that you'd get rid off ?
What makes you and the Bulls worthy of taking two spots, what could Leigh especially bring to SL that any of the existing clubs don't.
You've been in SL twice? And both times you were pathetic please explain your worth.

| A 14 team Super League without promotion and relegation is the best way to grow the game IMO. Keep the playoffs a top 4 competition, this will give notmal league games much more value and importance.

| Crazy to go to 14 teams, we’ve not enough quality players at the moment to provide 12 teams. It’s obviously a gamble by the RFL to get Toronto and Toulouse in the comp and the usually exemption of these 2 teams from relegation for 2 or 3 years.
In 2019 Toronto and Toulouse will need around 40 new players of the right standard, where are these coming from, will it be from the shallow pool of players in the U.K. or an increased quota of overseas players.

I believe Salford, Widnes and Wakefield would be the teams facing the biggest challenge of submitting a winning licence application. All are struggling through the gate and lack a sugar Daddy.
As stated my preference would be two tens, that brings London and Avignon into the mix plus any US interest

Spot on. And I think we all know the answer to the last question. Then we can all go back to bitching about over the hill Aussie imports, and the whole debate about whether 14 teams should go back to 12 teams can start again.

| Quote wire-quin="wire-quin"In the papers today it is suggesting SL will return to 14 teams in 2019
Is this the return of franchises, end of middle 8's.
Makes you wonder what's been achieved over the past few years with the reduction to 12 and the return of 'P&R".'"
This rumour has been doing the rounds for a while now possibly a year.

| Quote Bull Mania="Bull Mania"I always thought reducing to twelve was a mistake. But i'd like to know whats changed from 4 years ago when having 12 teams was deemed a bad idea, and now having 14 teams is suddenly good. Simiarily with licensing. IMO it was a disaster for the sport.
Personally i think a simple 14 team SL, with a 5 team play-off, simple one up, one down. Maybe have a form of licensing based on facilities/player development etc where you got rewarded/penalised for the strength of those.
Just doesn't seem to be anu leadership or direction for these decisions.'"
I see were you are coming from and kind of agree, 14 teams home away, no magic weekend straight 26 games 6 team playoff for me, one up one down, but promotion is based on licensing, you must bring something to the top table, and any side in super league regardless of league position can be relegated if they are not ticking the 3 main boxes, attendance, stadium, player development. all super league clubs should also me able to demonstrate self funding, tv revenue should be icing on the cake not reliant on this.

So as a club you've failed miserably throughout your history to be a genuine top side so now your only option is to play the franchise card. You really are a sad little pretender club with delusions of grandure.
You want our spot in SL win it like men in the pitch rather than being a cowardly sneak thief.
In fairness though you are a mirror to the game - totally lacking in morals and flushed with self interest.
Please don't come on here bleating like you lot always do when your spot goes to some club in the good old USA because their franchise was better than yours and that the Wigan area already has a much bigger and better club in SL - think on.
