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 |

Rules are selective, they wont want to have a bidding contest, they will keep the contestants to a minimum, they need a quick decision , as they need to announce who it is in 4/5 weeks time

No , that qualifies them to submit an application for 2015-2018 , not the current period

it would be easier for them to pick up more of bradfords players, it would be easier for their semi-pro players who were to step up to make that change, it would be easier for them to work out the travel arrangements and the effect on player performance, it took les catalans a year or two to sort that out.
Toulouse's costs will be higher with the additional travel and associated costs so they would need to make sure they could turnover enough to cover those higher costs.
Im not saying which one is best, just that in the immediate term Fax would find it a bit easier than Toulouse

| Neither - Fev.
Bigger derby potential with Leeds, Cas and Wakefield.
Fax's nearest derby would be Hudds and Toulouse in this economic climate would be financial suicide.

Toulouse are already battle hardened to commuting the channel, 3 years in the Championship sorted that out, Mick Potter might fancy working in France again, and Bradfords Aussies might fancy some sunshine for a change, plus Faxs plans are highly speculative

Fev havent qualified for this licence period
All Toulouse need is the nod from a major sponsor, a 5 year tenure would swing it

| Toulouse*, I want to see France become competitive again and see more French players developed to SL level.
* that's if they can show a decent business plan that proves financial sustainability at this level.

How will it be marketed? Two of those areas wouldn't know a rugby ball if it popped out of their anus. So basically you give a license to a merged Sheffield-Doncaster team. Poor Sheffield - another merger; although I suspect this time they'd be the daddy's.
Fanciful stuff.

Don't suggest merging team in this country because you'll upset people. I understand people are proud of their history but for the sake of the game mergers need to happen. It will never happen and we will always be known as a minority sport because the game is mainly played in small northern towns. I wouldn't be surprised if the game went back to semi pro.
