Unless it doesn’t work out again and he wobbles like last time but that’s just the pitfalls of being in the championship, living on scraps and It’s multiplied if you don’t have a wealthy owner.
Good luck to them.'"
Yes good luck to them. Beaumont has put the money in and at times that was hard to do when IIRC the Championship got salary capped at a lower level than the Superleague salary cap. He fought and won to get rid of that anomaly.
And he still kept putting it in, got Leigh promotion and they came 11th. But went down due to the ridiculous Blake Solly nonsense of the MPG.......
From where most of us are sat, Leigh is a gift horse to Superleague, quality ground, rich owner, and a club fans like to watch.
Yet here we are with Superleague seemingly bending over backwards to put TWP back into Superleague in return for a snake oil deal???
It's like every day is April 1st.....  |

Hang on? You’ve been saying for months SL didn’t want Toronto in the league and now you are saying they do? You’ve obviously lied so which is right?

I couldn't dislike the man, he's a big RL fan, keen to bankroll a grand old club. He's had all sorts of nonsense to put up with yet he still continues to invest in the game despite all the stupid barriers put in his way. The lower Championship salary cap he had to suffer, and the the silly MPG nonsense come to mind.
Both things were removed after they caused him problems and cost him money, but he fought on.
Listened to the post match garbage Brian McDermott was spouting tonight. If only Mr. Beaumont had been the guest instead we could have been listening to something highly positive for the game. |

By my calculations, and correct me if I am wrong, but if you apply the revised points system being used in the 2020 Super League table to the 2020 Championship, then Leigh Centurions finish top ahead of Toulouse.
Both have 100% records, but Leigh have the superior points percentage
Calculation
Leigh 162 (points for) divided by 40 (points against) x 100 = 405
Toulouse 180 (points for) divided by 48 (points against) = 375
SEE NOTES BELOW SUPER LEAGUE COMPETITION UPDATE.
https://www.rugby-league.com/article/57 ... ion-update
b. Operational Rule B2:7 shall be further amended so that, where Clubs have an equal Win Points Percentage their relative positions shall be determined by Points Scored Percentage. The Points Scored Percentage is calculated by dividing the number of points scored by a Club by the number of points it concedes and multiplying by 100. |

I am sure you are right.
Do Toulouse have an automatic right to promotion if they win the Championship at any time? |

Yes, he's got the fire in his belly & you will see the intent. |

Well given the situation outlined by Sadler in League Express that if Superleague give Toronto the cold shoulder refusing to give Livolsi any central funding, which will lead to Livolsi just pulling out, then the door is wide open to someone to make up the twelve 2022.
But we may still be caught up in the constant feud between the RFL and Superleague as Leigh may get blocked by Toulouse if they didn't win the Championship next year and Toulouse did. Can't see Rimmer then doing anything other than inviting Toulouse in.
Sadlers revelation is that it's in the RFL's power to put "guests" Toulouse in SL if they win the 2021 Championship. It would be a terrible shame if this happened and Leigh missed out again. Wish you and Mr. Beaumont all the best.... |

The minorities are back with the old Leigh v Toronto argument.
It's great to have ambition and every club has its place, but history has shown and proven that they are a strong Championship level club.
As for sky subs, I ask the Leigh and fans of other championship clubs, do you already have sky subs now and if you didn't have one, would you get a sky sub if your team reached super league?

You mean the same Leigh fans who can't get higher than 30 or 40% capacity of their 10k stadium? Not knocking Leigh because it's fact.
Instead of trolling, why didn't you just answer the question or add to the discussion?

I think you are knocking them it's been quite clear for some time , I take it you using championship attendance and have you thought they may not give away free tickets and leave the gates open to beer swilling vagrants |
