On a serious note, the very best of luck to Leigh (and the rest applying). Unless the draw bridge is going up, which it doesn’t sound like it is, then it’s nothing but an invitation to a season of hidings and potential financial issues back at odsal for us so I’d rather sit this one out.
I keep saying it’s not us and we shouldn’t get it, but I can’t help but think I could be stood in super league away grounds next year, buying your beer and tickets and getting slagged off for not deserving it whilst parting with my hard earned'"
Good post mate.  |

| I see we are all still playing nicely on the VT? 
Best of luck to Leigh and their supporters. I would personally prefer to see Leigh or York take the SL spot. |

Oh I'm sorry.
Well in that case feel free to address my point and list all the things Leigh brought to Super League in their previous visits.
We'll wait.

We always play nicely, honest 
I'd like to see York in SL some time but, they seem a long way from ready just now and there are more deserving clubs, at the moment.

No need to keep saying sorry, and don't take that posh, snobbish, patronizing, sanctimonious approach with me. Leigh didn't disgrace themselves in 2017 and you know it.
Leigh have made an excellent application,and are in an excellent strong position on and off the field to fill that 12th spot, whether it's right or wrong it being gifted.
Now then, you feel free to list why any one of the other applicants deserve to be in, and why?
We'll wait. |

A damn sight more than Toulouse would, for example. If you were a club chairman, which clubs away supporters would you like rattling your turnstiles? |

I must say if you’re going to put a bid in on something. A professional compelling 430 page document is the way to do it.
Good luck.

Away support is utterly irrelevant to whether a club gets brought in. |

Is that all you've got for that list of things Leigh have added to Super League?
Perfect, I'm sure the panel deciding this will be well impressed. |

Do you have any evidence to support that? Or just an opinion! Bradford hailing different to your opinion. This isn’t expansion it’s who deserves to be there. |

Very very poor response if you can't remember good attendances (home and away),Excellent stadium,teams we beat,and didn't finish bottom either. Now let's Let's try again......
