| Quote: Wellsy13 "So basically the idea is that up to 7 SL standard players would be loaned to the Championship club (injury permitting) on a weekly basis. 7 players that the Championship clubs (who we are constantly reminded don't have much money) wouldn't have to pay for, that are most likely of a better standard than their current squad, train full time and will most likely make them more competitive. The Championship club keeps complete independence and gets all the benefits from having these players.
Why wouldn't they want them? They take dual reg players from SL. What's the difference?'"
You've not exactly given the full story here have you?
But let's ask another question. Would you, in all honesty, be happy for Hull FC to be a feeder club to Hull KR?

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 |

| It's an interesting idea , and it might well end up happening , we might have to end up accepting that the sport of RL can only support a dozen English clubs , 11 of which are in a line across the pennines , very much a small minority sport

I'd worry about this but then I remember it comes from a nonentity who doesn't get the hint.

Relative to what? How many top flight football clubs are there in the biggest county in the UK? How popular is RU in the north? How many athletics meets do you know of which will attract 70k attendances?
RL is a relatively large sport, where it is strong it is very very strong, for some reason however, it is at times terrified of making itself strong in new areas.

And feeder clubs would reduce the strength of RL , in the context it is being used here , where long standing historical clubs are being suggested as becoming them
It would reduce the Championships to whichever club was lucky enough to have it's ' parent ' club have the fewest injuries , I seriously doubt many fans would be happy to pay to watch that

No I don't suppose I would. I mean, I could go around in circles with you about how much we hate each other but there are better things to do with both our times. You know you're not going to get a proper debate with me and that's because I know you are a fraud who is playing games but it's nice to get a reminder from you from time to time that I'm right about that.
Good evening!

Just because Yorkshire can't put together 1 decent football team at the present time isn't relevant , different areas have had good and bad times as regards success , and that still continues , due to having relatively unrestricted promotion and relegation

These 'long-standing historical' clubs are just that, long standing and historical. They arent strong, they arent pushing the game forward, they arent contributing massively to the wider game, they are simply existing.
A long-standing historical club in Leigh has got its begging bucket out again and they are apparently one of the stronger long standing and historical clubs.
many fans arent happy paying to watch what they can watch now and before you bring up franchising as the reason for this, it was exactly the same 5,10,20 years ago aswell.
Im not sure why people would be suddenly turned off by the fact the team they were watching last year, had better players and competed at a higher standard than last year simply because said club had an arrangement with another club whereby they shared some players and back office and facilities unless they were the kind of parochial morons who feel the need to type W1g4n rather than Wigan.

Its also largely down to relatively unrestricted promotion and relegation that massive clubs like Leeds, Sheff Wed and Sheff Utd, as well as Bradford City have come so close to ceasing to operate. Its the reason that Leeds reduced massively the amount they were investing in Thorpe Arch which was a premier training facility which produced huge amounts of young, quality, british players. Its why only now they are starting the journey of building it back to what it was.

Leeds problem was they had an idiot in charge , if they are ' massive ' clubs , why did they nearly cease to exist ?
Bad management is bad management , wether it is Leigh RL club or Leeds United

There are many clubs , not just those in the Championship that aren't contributing to the game and are just existing
Leighs problems are of their own making without doubt , although at the moment the sports governing body aren't helping to create an exciting arena for clubs to build themselves
The current Dual reg system is as far as any ' arrangement ' between clubs as we should go , as for our neighbours from across the borough , believe me they have more parochial morons within the management of their club , than we have in ours
