[quote="King Street Cat":1wa9s43t]Some might look at this as being harsh but I think it's fair. When are the Rugby League going to stop persisting with this fantasy expansion.

Quote: Starbug "Funny isn't it that fans of expansion clubs and clubs IN SL claim to be fans of the sport before their own club , dont you think'"
Not really. The only reason for anyone to be against expansion is because of a mistaken belief that it will negatively affect their club. Not all SL or pro-expansion fans claim to be just fans of the sport, but all anti-expansion fans are definitely short-sighted fans of their club.

Quote: Starbug "You have no affiliation to any club , if you did , you might feel differently , as for your other answers

I've been a Saints fan since 1967,Billy Benyon and all that - yes,i'm THAT old ! we are season ticket holders at TO so maybe we have some kind of affiliation to them ? and we sponsor TWO players at Donny (the Hughes brothers) - check if you don't believe me - last year we could only manage to sponsor one player (David Bates) but Donny quite sensibly IMO halved their player sponsorship prices for 2011 resulting an a much bigger take-up of sponsors for 2011.By the way,why Donny ? well,being a RL fanatic from the most easterly point of the UK (near Lowestoft) Doncaster was the nearest 'big' RL team (still is) at about 170 miles away which was about a four-hour drive - doesn't that strike you as being quite a serious RL fan ?

I didn't ' pick out a number ' , I worked it out

so these are not official figures from the RFL or elsewhere then ? just amounts dreamed up over a pint in the local ?

Yes any British club , but sensibly the further away from the heartlands you go , the more difficult it becomes logistically , espeially for a part time club'"


So you would be happy for the RFL to invest their hard-earned cash with a team from Edinburgh or Dublin say ? But they wouldn't have any exemption from relegation of course ?

It's not "mistaken" if there are a limited number of places in SL and expansion sides are guaranteed some of them regardless of merit.

But regardless of that, the reason why most people are against sticking a pin as per the usual plan is that such ventures have a failure rate that is only marginally below 100%. And the few "successes" are lame ducks.

Quote: headhunter "

No, it just suits a particular point of view to characterise "anti-expansionists" in this way. A more accurate summary would be that very many people believe that only a gradual grassroots build up in "expansion" areas has any chance of success.

So you are a Doncaster fan [ because they were the nearest to you when you got interested in RL ] then no problem , still not the ' I was born there , watched all my pro RL there and still live there ' situation many of us find ourselves in

Having being on the board of a Championship/SL club for 4/5 years I dont need to work things out in the pub , as you put it , 250K [ 300 would be better ] per season is enough to establish a Championship 1 club 50 miles from the heartands until they either succeed or decide to fold

As I said , the further away from the heartlands you go , the harder it gets

You are 90 % correct , a gradual properly financed build up is what is importantant for success to championship level , after that you need to let things find their own level , if that is SL then fine , if not then also fine , clubs will be what clubs will be , it still however is expansion

so now i'm inferior because I wasn't born within the sound of cotton mills or coal mines ? I'm as good as you are regarding my right to support a minority sport which needs ALL the support it can get,even from carrot crunching tractor boys like me ! I can't help where I was born any more than you can.Stop implying you are better than me,you sound a sad soul in search of another board to wind up until they kick you off for being anti-progressive etc - by the way i'm a Saints fan,my first visit to the fair town was in 1967 as a youngish lad,that's what grabbed me about the game - Donny happened to be the nearest 'big' team to us - TO is the nearest 'big' team to me in france so I go there to se a decent level of rugby,not neccessarily to support TO,do you get the idea ? Just to repeat,I travelled five hours to get to Limoux to watch your lot in the cup match tho' i'm not even a Leyther,get the idea ? it's called ' the love of the game '

Having being on the board of a Championship/SL club for 4/5 years I dont need to work things out in the pub , as you put it , 250K [ 300 would be better ] per season is enough to establish a Championship 1 club 50 miles from the heartands until they either succeed or decide to fold


Must think your'e the bees knees then,being on a board ? Mr Big are we then,obviously didn't have to actually PAY to see a match then ,did you ? plus the freebie drinkies after the match etc etc Do you have any idea how many miles I clocked up in the UK to support OUR sport ? not just a few treks down the M62 on the team bus mate.Do you have ANY idea how many miles (kms) I clock up each season to follow RL in france ? my nearest team (Villeneuve is 3 hours away) - TO is four hours & Perpignan seven hours not a five minute drive across town to play our neighbours - get real man and show some repect for the REAL fans of the game or keep your ridiculous comments to yourself or show some respect for others

again,I wish you and all you good Leythers a Happy New Year

i dont want to get directly involved in this increasingly heated debate, but again ive noticed the opinion floated that rugby union has some amazing world beating european competition in the heiniken cup. i fail to see how this competition (and that is the operative word here) is really all that? you have what? 3 or 4 teams who have a real chance of winning it each year? and half the teams are frankly poor and just make up the numbers. its about as competative as a competition of similair structure involving the top 8 SL teams and most of championship one would be.

Although I agree that the HC can be overhyped somewhat I think you are being a bit harsh. Across the six pools half of them have the top three teams within a few points of each other. The other half have the top two teams who are in a few points of each other.

Its not like one team has dominated the competition over a number of years and its great to see teams from a number of countries competing. Your right though in that a few sides (especially the Italian ones) just make up the numbers. 6 pools of four is too many but I guess Sky TV money is running things there too.

Lets be honest we would love to have a european club competition like that.

I don't really have a club. I've been a Haven, Blackpool and Keighley fan at various times depending on where I was living but right now I'm in Devon. The last game I went to see was in Somerset. Try a different card because the flat cap one doesn't work.

Surely a club that cannot be successful at Championship level will struggle to be successful at SL level , at least that is what we are told if we are discussing heartland Championship clubs prospects of success in SL
