What makes it any warmer at the DW stadium then the hot air from the whinging pieeaters'?

Welcome to that elite group "Clubs the RFL give an unfair leg-up to".
Are they s**tting on any "traditional heartlands clubs" to help you too?
Who's being dropped instead of you?'"
Oh dear.

| Quote: Odemwingie "I am also chuffed for them. Widnes or Leigh would be great for super league and both would be long term. I would love an extra big match day with some actual away fans. They were unlucky and its a shame they have worked so hard to get the stadium and it has not payed off yet. Leigh would of really kicked on had they been able to have their first season in the new stadium in super league. It's just a shame that Widnes and Toulouse are probably above them in the pecking order.
It's good to see some real competition in the franchising.
Wakefield
Salford
Celtic
Widnes
Leigh
Barrow
Halifax
Toulouse
Paris (maybe)
Competing for 3 spots
Do you seriously believe that Leigh are "further along the track" than Halifax are or is it just that you are from the dark side of the Pennines and therefore biased?

| Grendel - fair comments IMHO, except for the stumbling block that most flatcappers sadly come from Leigh.

| What about promoting another team from C1 instead of just saving Leigh?
Isn't that what happed ala Paris?
And doesn't it still leave 10 in one league and 11 in another?

I'm sure the RFL did consider that option and yes if you have 21 clubs in 2 leagues , one will have an odd number in it , it was the RFL's decision

A big huge roof which protects from the elements! Won't totally protect you from the cold but its a damn site warmer than a terrace with no roof, especially if it rains or snows. Critically you can retreat to the concourses at half time to get a break from it! A pint in the cold is not nice!

| Quote: Grendel "Leigh Centurions twinned with "The" Crusaders.
We can be best buddies now. We are the same! EXACTLY the same! We both benefit from unfair decisions from the RFL.
I expect the fair and even handed flatcappers will now treat you EXACTLY how they treated us, with the same slanders and prejudice. Otherwise they would be parochial little hypocrites and I can't see that happening.'"
If that was the case I'm sure we would have already seen it on these pages
But we havent have we ?
While I am ' Happy ' to be back in the Championship , I am not ' Glad ' with how it has happened

| For what it's worth, I've got no problems with Leigh staying in Championship 1.
Just wanted to see if everyone was held to the same standard of scrutiny as us at the Cru.
