Thank you for that I was wondering what his position was and why the new ground?
He clearly remains highly ambitious for London to be in Superleague 2022 now and so maybe he forsees (which is easy to do when your mate is Lenegan) that there will be some new standards of entry which may not include playing out of a small RU club grounds

| Agree with Hughes, absolutely disgusting that Leigh or any team should be without the same funding.
This is why league in the UK need an independent commission to avoid the clubs who only have self interests at heart who currently run the show from allowing such things to happen.

I kind of agree to you on this but then you and I don't know the reasons why do we as we're only guessing, I would say that the clubs have calculated all this in previously into the future their budgets and with the sudden back out of toronto then puts a different light on funding but then I'd say you know all this and so does Hughes but it doesn't stop him having a dig,
maybe he should of had the start we had in super league having no funding but again you clearly want to forget past.

There isnt much appetite within its traditional towns either.

In my lifetime alone..
London

...have all failed. There seems to be an opinion that the sport will fail and collapse without this "global brand" that a number of posters keep harping on about. We are 155 years in and I see zero evidence to suggest this is the case.
If the sport is that bad, move on and find something else and take your angst ridden self importance elsewhere.
Otherwise, just enjoy the sport for what it is.'"
Rapidly declining crowds across the board, losing sponsors, lower TV deal and no serious offers outside sky. Participation levels dwindling juniors through to open age. The game will not just persevere just because its 130 years old. The game is struggling at even in its so called heartlands.
The perception that some off us want a global trans Atlantic brand is just a myth created by the likes of donnyman, but what allot of us want is the game to break away from its Stereotype northern only game, but alas a large section of fans and apparently some owners want to regress backwards and become more insular. Regression is not the answer, nor is so called shutting teams down and moving them to Aberdeen and Stockholm etc, but i don’t know anyone (except in Donnyman head) proposing that.
I actually want franchising back and Leigh would be on my list, and certain clubs both sides of the pennines who gave promised and delivered nothing would be out.

Just because I prefer a proper run, exciting global sport, doesnt mean I dont care about its little brother.

If licensing was brought back the criteria would have to be tougher on grounds and junior development than is was last time.
