Quote: worthing wire "For instance, a club which enters administration or fails to deliver tangible proof of improving their stadium facility, could see their licence over-turned at the end of any of the next three seasons if there is a suitable candidate to emerge in their place from the Championship".'"
As Halifax are now effectively the Widnes of the last three years, we'll see how strong the RFL really are if any of the chosen fourteen do what Wakefield and Crusaders have in the last twelve months then.
With a strong candidate chomping at the bit to replace them, it should at the very least keep the Grade C licence teams on their toes.
Saints will probably be A standard by the next round of applications thanks to their new ground, Bradford are unlikely to repeat their successes of the first decade of Super League but could still reach A standard, and Huddersfield only need to increase their crowds to do the same I imagine - which they surely will if they continue their relative recent on pitch success.
Standards are getting higher, so if you can't even come close you're going to be looking over your shoulder.
