You are right ...it is a bit unfair as it only some not all who have lacked passion and drive in the aftermath of mcguire ..But for those players,it's not unfair when Gary chambers has talked about expectations in regards to effort from here on being a minimum ... It's really clear from that observation that effort issues have been recognised

Q?
Which is worse…

Going down this season then going into 2024 full time for promotion, or staying up this season, struggling once again with relegation with no return in 2025 c/o IMG closing the promotion/relegation gate?

Not sure but he certainly won't in future.

Did you just nick that from a famous Confucius philosophy quote?

I thought this year was the last year for promotion and relegation with 2024 being no relegation as img will be selecting the 12 teams for 2025 anyway.

I was thinking the same, end of 24 it’s decided the League for the following season. My concern is since the last time we had licensing clubs like Wakefield and Castleford took the proverbial pee out of it, basically not bringing the stadiums up to standard . So as long as the standards IMG are fully followed it will be a complete waste of time.
