Speaking with Robert Elstone the other week at a London game he would agree with you. He would also add London to that list.
He's a fairly straight talking guy that's for sure. That said he didn't appear to have the answers to SL issues though. Described by one chairman I spoke with as lightweight.

interesting comment. But the fact that Elstone would add London to the list is rather disturbing. It suggests that the club chairman who described him as a lightweight is right on the money.
Oh, if only the very smart and capable Richard Lewis would return to running our game. Alas there is no chance of that.

| OK Sunny Jean, without mentioning expansion which isn’t working in London, why should London be in SL rather the three teams that are the recipients of your disgusting bile at an ever increasing frequency?

| It would be so amusingly ironic if Featherstone won promotion at the end of this season.

77270_1562571079.jpg The Leigh and Wakefield fans mentality......
Say something negative about any other team than theirs - Its an opinion

| Let’s be honest. There is more chance of Blake Austin turning up in a big game than there is of fev getting promoted but it’s good to see them in the mix.

So all the hard work done by everyone behind the scenes to keep Salford going and who probably take home a meagre wage to pay their mortgage, the fantastic work by the head coach to have them challenging for the top5 and who’s got a job with Great Britain off the back of his work with Salford, and the players working hard (other than last week when they were totally bobbins) to try and get into the top5 who earn their living and pay their mortgages through the club... none of them deserve that do they not? All out of a job, all have to sell their houses, at the say so of some WUM who pines for pet expansion teams who couldn’t even stop little London getting promoted last season?
Teams are in Super League on merit. Simple as that. Nobody deserves or doesn’t deserve to be in SL for any other reason than winning or losing games of rugby. There’s no legitimacy in saying teams who won enough games to stay up over the years or ticked off enough boxes to keep their license for the years that was in place, don’t deserve to be in SL.
Just because Toronto might bring some more exposure to the sport or will have more home fans than Salford, doesn’t mean they deserve to be in SL and Salford don’t.
We’ve seen expansion fail miserably in the past. Stop pining for it to flush this league of the smaller clubs who have people working hard every day to keep their clubs going and earn themselves a living to have a roof over their heads, just so you can come on here like the prize WUM you are to lord it over fans who’ve been following these clubs for decades, week-in-week-out (even if it’s not many of them in some cases).
This will all happen naturally. Toronto may well get promoted this year and may just about stay up next year, but then and then only can anyone say they deserve to be in SL over any club they’ve replaced - which may not be Salford or Wakefield.
It’s alright for all the berks like you on this site sitting in the back room in your Mam’s gaff (where you probably don’t even pay for the internet connection, never mind contribute to the rent) in your vest and boxers eating packets of crisps and picking your nose while WUMming people in this site all day... you don’t actually think there are people who are working for these clubs, who aren’t playing or coaching staff, who’s work for these clubs keeps these clubs in business and pays for their homes.
“Don’t belong”...?! Wind your neck in!

And you’re another one. You’d have thought you’d have learnt from the embarrassment you had at the end of last season where you made such a fool of yourself you had to discontinue your last username and come back as someone else. and somehow you’re even worse than the last WUM account you had.
Get that giant Wire chip off your shoulder, it doesn’t suit you.

| I have no idea what Leeds Rhinos A can add to superleague over Leigh other than a boat load of money to the RFL in fines for fan misbehaviour.
