[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. If it hasn't worked by now, it never will! I'm all for reaching out to a wider audience with our game but not at the expense of historical clubs in the homelands.[/quote:1wa9s43t]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_6731.jpg |

A 'classic example' for the 10th time in over 200 attempts.

Fev the team that had 60 put on them last week. If Fev were to go up it would be back to the same old yo yo route.

Are you suggesting that Sooper Dooper franchising isn't all it's cracked up to be?
That Sooper Dooper franchise clubs are still spending an arm and a leg on questionable overseas players to bolster their playing ranks as opposed to developing their own?
That Sooper Dooper franchise clubs are screwed without the leg-up of all that exclusive income from TV?
None of that fits in with the Sooper Dooper modern agenda.
Please excuse me while I don my flat cap and take the whippet for a celebratory walk around Fev this evening. |

Dropkick Murphy..we actually saw and heard a mass of bouncing and scarf and flag waving to Dale Cavese that drowned out anything we could muster.. It stopped us singing our own celebratory songs, it died out seconds later when we accepted we couldn't be heard over the Wigan lot
Celebrations muted from us, job done from them. Most fans who slag them off are jealous their own club's support is nowhere near that good
-
sally cinnamon..Why not discuss Wigan? It's a rugby league message board. Wigan are the most famous brand in rugby league
-
Tre Cool..Saints fans are hopeless unless it's a cup final or grand final. Wigan fans are so much more loyal and passionate
-
the flying biscuit..Wires havent been massively succesful over the years, but I've spoke to Brian Bevan And he spoke to me and i wouldnt swap that for Wigans History, ever
-
Ande..on the TV i could only hear the Wigan fans with about 10 to go
-
Saint94..Every team is in your feckin shadow, we all know

I agree. The clubs who do not meet the criteria should be out. |

Tell you what. Let's compare ties between lower super league sides and the top championship sides. That's what's being discussed here.
The other top championship side beat SW scorpions today so it may be difficult!
Well done the flat cappers! |

Thank you Adam Pearson for giving the faithful hope: |

Clubs in administration, crowds of less than 3000, Players coming out of retirement (radford) where are the youngsters coming through, NRL players over 30 years old still coming over to play.
You want me to go on'"
Do your homework before you post. Radford came out of retirement because we had ran out of youngsters, we had 5 props injured. We have got 11 first teamers out at the moment. We just havn't got any youngsters left |

Between a top super league and teams two leagues below so is irrelevant. Well done again! |
