Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

In a debate about why the CC final isnt in HD.
[quote="Gazemous":1jjuuzre]Northerners can't afford HD, what's the point?[/quote:1jjuuzre]
[quote="TheBigFella":1jjuuzre]Im a Northerner and Ive got HD. C0ck. We could also probably buy 3 to 4 houses for what you would pay for 1, doesnt that tell you something.[/quote:1jjuuzre]

[quote="Paddock Punter":1jjuuzre]I did enjoy asking Bill Arthur at half time as he was walking past a long string of cables which one I could pull out so I could f**k their weekend up as well.[/quote:1jjuuzre]:15431.jpg |

So, what's being said here is, SL to be expanded to 15 teams?
4 games on the saturday, 3 games on the sunday.
4 games on the sunday if the SL Champions play their WCC match last.
And, the SL Champions get a bye the first week? Then all the other teams have a bye for alternate weeks?
Or is now MM being proposed by you lot not to be the first week, but to be the second?
You are all going in circles.

Do you agree that in a comp that has an uneven amount of teams in it, that every week a different team will take it in turn to have their bye week?
So if you do agree then how come you find it hard to envision that the bye week during the MM could fall to the reigning champions of SL thus enabling them to play in the WWC at the MM.
Senario:
SL week 1
Wigan v Leeds
Leeds v St's
Cas v Bradford
Wakefield v Warrington
Salford v Hudds
Hull FC v Quins
Hull KR v Catalans
Widnes BYE
Week 2 (MM)
St's v Widnes
Bradford v Leeds
Wakefield v Cas
Warrington v Hudds
Hull FC v Hull KR
Quins v Catalan
Salford v Crusaders
Wigan BYE (but will play NRL Champs for WWC as final game of MM)
Week 3
St's Bye
Week 4
Cas BYE
and so on  |

It doesn't work , think about it if you have a ' bye ' every team has 2 byes that requires an even number of games , MM is the odd game

“You are playing a game of football this afternoon but more than that you are playing for England, and more even than that, you are playing for right versus wrong. You will win because you have to win. Don’t forget that message from home. England expects every one of you to do his duty.”:1230.gif |

MM doesnt have to be an odd game, it could be a home game for some an away game for others and a "bye" for one team
bad idea to have the WCC at MM (and to have even more SL teams), but it is possible

Oh I worked out long ago what you were saying. I'm just amazed that you try to protract an argument for as long as possible by refusing to acknowledge the difference between two views even if its making you look a little bit silly. |
