There’s what 4? other clubs within 5-10 miles of them.
Wasn’t it a decision made by the clubs?
It was certainly signed off by the clubs to allow Ottawa to take Hemel’s licence.
They’d spent about half a mil whilst just being an amateur club.
Did they have proper plans for how they would meet their increased costs and to get crowds in?

Mancunians RL have also had struggles over the years. They wanted to join Championship 1 as it was at one stage, it never materialised.
They had two teams at one stage, the first team gaining promotion to the North West Premier of the Conference.
But no interest from the RFL in their long term aims and I don’t think they even have a men’s team anymore.
Now I think they just have Junior training sessions at weekends and work with local schools, coaching kids, during the week.

And we wonder why the game is dying on its in this country. People willing to throw money at it, and it’s no, let’s protect the clubs that are failing.
Football thrives by having a strong and wide pyramid below the premier league, letting the cream rise to the top, whilst we do our best to put them out of business and make the mediocre a closed shop.

This was my initial thought. Before using Red Hall as lightening rod, I'd be interested to see what say the clubs had in this.
It was Hunslet that vetod Bramley's application to play their initial games at Morley because they didn't want the competition on their doorstep, and it was the then-NFP clubs that voted against promotion from the NCL (whilst at the same time demanding promotion for themselves to Super League). |

Who are the rlf and why would Manchester Rangers be a threat to Salford? We've got very few fans but they're loyal.... anyone thinking they'd up and move sticks to support a rich club down the road is either naive or just downright stupid!  |

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

Didn’t your crowds increase when a rich backer took over then deteriorated when he left?

Greater Manchester has loads:
https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_f ... Manchester
Compared to other Northern cities and their surrounding areas. Liverpool/Merseyside, Leeds/West Yorkshire, Sheffield/South Yorkshire and Newcastle/the North East as a whole, none of them have the volume of football clubs that Manchester/Greater Manchester does.
Even the Birmingham/West Midlands (who have only two fewer clubs in levels 1-4) cannot boast the amount of clubs Manchester/Greater Manchester does at level 5-8.
Only London beats Manchester for football clubs.
It would be easily sustainable for the city for Manchester Rangers to have had a professional place up the leagues. |

There's already talk of Swinton rebranding to Manchester Lions anyway.

Another old great club. Once did “All Four Trophies” in a season.
Swinton, in the Greater Manchester Borough of Salford, who play in Sale, in the Greater Manchester Borough of Trafford, to become Manchester; while Sale (RU), in the Greater Manchester Borough of Trafford, who play in Barton, in the Greater Manchester Borough of Salford, have also talked about becoming Manchester in the past too. |
