| Quote: wrencat1873 "It's difficult to think of any other professional sport that has anything close to the number of failed clubs and ideas over the same period of time (SL Era)
Just how many changes to numbers of clubs, structure of the league, new ventures, new clubs, insolvent clubs etc, etc has RL had over the past 25 years. It's not great, is it.'"
It hasn't been great over the last 100 years
We could settle down to a predominantly English Superleague and English Championship.
The instability doesn't come from the M62 does it??? York date back to 1868 and your club 1873.
Concentrate on what works, support that, and before you start yes Perpignan and Toulouse also have a long and proud history. |

Fair enough mate but I do think we'd get more people joining and posting on here if he wasn't on here.....
I read the "members currently on line" number then the much bigger guests number. He must stop some really good people from joining when they see what he posts?

Well why not use the report button? If we don't we can't complain?

I know Derek, I posted that another member admitted to me by PM that he likes 'winding other members up' which is 100% true. POST REMOVED !

If the Mods can't see it in the first place to act, then you end up being a whinger. I used to say that Jean Cappy (now The Silent H) was a Mod in disguise because post were regularly removed when he didn't like them.,this seems to be the case again. |

Correct Budge. If they are protected, what's the point in posting anymore?

Your explanation please.
You couldn't be further from the truth. |

it's all right you supporting them but they hadn't been paid for two months and wasn't getting the third until the RFL moved in you'd be up in arms about it.
All this winding up on here does you no favours for your expansionist dreams'"
Of course the late payments and timing was terrible and nothing in my post condoned their actions. I was alluding to Rimmers decisions.
Say Toronto are kicked out of super league.
Where do they go?
Who replaces them?
Or an 11 team super league?
They are harder questions for Rimmer to answer, you agree? |

The best of it is, every time Donnyman posts, he is backed up by Leigh supporters. No one else. It’s obvious it’s the same poster as the usual Leigh trolls |

4 pages. You all fell for it.
When will you all get that Donnyman is employed by the mods to drive traffic to a dying website?

We both know Donnyfraud is a troll, but he has a couple of friends (must be a pain logging out and back in), hard of thinking parochial xenophobic racism must be quite tiring. |

| Quote: Donnyman "Well cherry picking happened before when we had licensing and what the RFL/SL felt were strategically important clubs were given a lot of leeway and allowed in Superlague especially the Celtic Crusaders. Harlequins were persevered with despite struggling. Established clubs did complain. Halifax were not happy.
It happened in 1996 when they didn't just use the top 12 clubs, with Featherstone and Salford being elbowed aside for London and Paris. They were not happy. Keighley and Batley didn't get the promotion they expected. they were not happy. So I appreciate your purist stance but it's more a business than a sport and they must IMHO go for the 12 by choosing someone just like above, and if others are unhappy tough. If it turns out to be a wrong choice tough.
For me running with 11 clubs and creating a terribly unbalanced fixture list will allow the phoney baloney TWP 's antics to just go on making things a mockery long after they have gone and we just don't need that reminder week after week of that terrible mistake. Out of those that have offered to fill in one must offer more than the rest even if was just via a collective opinion of a selection group.'"
Well I disagree. Who is going to reimburse those clubs in the championship who have invested £thousands trying to challenge for a SL spot? Like I've already stated, imo there should be a comp in the championship to decide who gets that SL spot. It's alright you saying it's tough,but what if,and it's a big if ,TW were invited back in next year??? Would that be tough? |

I agree, there should be a competition for the small clubs to see who gets relegated next from SL. Halifax, Leigh, Featherstone, York, Newcastle..not really going to make SL much better.
Keep Toronto, add Otowa and New York and Toulouse, spread beyond whippets and flat caps. |
