Would sky finance this without Quins?.
If you are going to spread the sky money between fewer clubs then Quins are a must in this league.
it would be so much easier for them to be competitive with more money to spend on players and marketing.
Quins for huddersfield and i think your about right in the makup of your league.

Hull KR with their new stand will be good enough.
Widnes have always been good enough.
Salford could be good enough with the new stadium and so would Castleford.
I do agree though we only have 8 clubs who are up to standard.

If you research my posting history on here, you will find I've said many times that if the new ground failed to materialise Saints should be kicked out of SL.

| Quote: Richie "I'm not sure the fans want a close competitive league.....not for the "big" clubs anyway. As soon as those clubs start losing, the fanbase become massively negative, and the attendances drop off.
Only this weekend, the Champs of 2007, 2008, 2009 had a narrow win over the bottom team. Are the fans raving about a close and competitive game?
What's needed are "lower" clubs to stand under the top clubs, to facilitate "top of the table" clashes. But without a "bottom of the table" there is no top of the table.'"
Of course they want a close competitive league , as long as their club is just a bit more competitive than the rest , unfortunatly they haven't figured out how to not have somebody be at the bottom of SL yet |

I want those clubs to raise their standards enough to be 'super'.
I am also aware that we need Salford in because all of the BBC is moving to Salford.

How do you get that?
Just so there's a local team for the BBC to ignore? 
Salford offer nothing to the league at all, no fans and can't compete in the league. |

They've had the best part of 15 years, or over a hundred years depending who you listen to,to become super,what makes you think things are going to change now. |

But a few years ago people were saying the same thing about Warrington and Huddersfield. |

The O/P wasn't about what we want , it was about what we have now , and the relevance of Salford being a few miles closer to the BBC than Warrington or W1g4n is what exactly ? |

So a few years ago they would have dumped them , no problem , beside which Huddersfield still dont have many fans despite them being at/near the top |

It is just impractical to have a league competition, comprised of 8 teams. Sorry. Anyone remember Division 2 in the mid-90s?
