Quote: Honest Joe "Coming off the ground last night, listening to the moans of the crowd who had been subjected to yet another poor performance. I realised that I wasn't really bothered. When we had promotion and winning the GF was paramount, I would have been devastated last night, it would have taken me days to get over it. But today, I'm just not really bothered. Nothing has changed. We weren't going into SL anyway. All it means is we don't have to suffer another match next Friday. That is the most worrying thing I think. If I feel like that, someone who has watched Leigh home and away for over 40 years, how do the casual fans feel?'"


There are many like you.

Championship games do not matter any more. It's the same at the bottom of Super League. You lose. You finish bottom or near to. So what?

There is no incentive any more. No excitement, loss of interest and loss of people going to games.

There are no longer full seasons of regular Sunday games when you either played home or away. Now we have 10 home and away leagues with a daft competion at the beginning. In the middle is thrown a 9s event. What's that about?

The authorities need to have a serious look at the decisions they have made in the recent past, otherwise the game below SL will die.

Maybe thats what they want?

Quote: griff1998 "Good job you're not in Superleague.

If you win it, there's still no promotion.

At least in the Co-op Championship you have a chance to be promoted once every three years.'"


What a ridiculous point!

I'm sure Leeds were devasted these last 3 years winning the grand final and not being able to be promoted, how terrible for them icon_rolleyes.gif

It might be better if the RFL just do what they want and pull up the drawbridge, rather than having these 3 year license periods. Then the competition may go back to being a competition in it's own right, rather than being a box to tick.

That would only work if they actually funded the competition

Every player wants to play their sport at the top level. Ultimately laying for their country, but at least playing for a top team in the top division. Every supporter wants to see their team win the top prizes in their particular sport. No one other than the most blinkered fan would say Leigh currently deserve SL, but and it is a big but, you need to feel you can make the top, and that the rules of how that is achieved are based on fair and consistent rules. As it is the rules are not worth the paper they're written on as they are changed to suit the whims of Red Hall. The fact they have been changed between the beginning and the end of this season is criminal and downright dishonest in my book. This sport is a joke.
