Did you count everyone each time? I'll go by official figures thanks, not the opinion of someone who doesn't want them in the league. |

Last time I checked, it was a European Super League. They have every right to enter the league. You can call it babysitting all you like, but it is not an English league.
It would be good to be in a position to have a French League at pro level, but it isn't just going to happen on its own due to the level of the sport there. |

| Quote: jesus-is-coming "Why the fook do we need another two blooming french teams!!!
Do the overated overaged aussies need another couple of retirement homes???
Radical thought lets have two more english teams ...who knows they may produce english players...flippn eck how radical'"
The 12 English teams we have at the moment barely produce many decent English players. Why have more? Just because more are playing doesn't make them any good.
Plus, where is the money coming from for these two extra English teams? The point I was making (before you spouted your anti-French b*llocks) was that if a FRENCH TV company were to make a deal for SL rights (i.e. enough to fund the inclusion of more teams from France). Do you think French TV will want more English teams for the extra money they'd want to put in? |

Reality check needed by a few on here, those folk who dont want french teams in "our" league are forgetting that it is suposed to be the European Super league thats what Sky want & they are financing it. The ultimate goal is to be like the champions league in soccer. Why are so many people hell bent on turning back the clock to some mythical golden age that actualy never existed?

Even if those "official" do not match up to reality and often vary deoending on which media outlet they appear in? Published RL attendence figures in france have been dubious for a number years. |

A cup competition run in addition to existing domestic leagues? Doesn't look like it to me  |

get the french up to scratch then use the spots for british expansion (ie not heartland clubs)
places like gateshead / newcastle, south yorkshire, midlands, and one day scotland, ireland and wales (again). thats a very long time away.'"
Stick to commenting on the NRL Dally, your comments above show you know jack about the British game. Start by reading up on the dire straits Celtic and Gateshead are in at the moment. |

i know enough about your game to know fax dont deserve a SL spot.
then again it doesnt take einstein to work out who the failed heartland clubs are who waste the RFLs money and do nothing in return for it |
