kcab sfrawdder 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

Quote: Starbug "No I'm certainly not , but the negatives of my idea are what ?'"

The dreaded fear by some that a team is playing by different rules - because they would be even by not allowing them to be promoted. The confusion of C1 with some clubs qualifying for promotion and others not. With the possible scenario of GF being contested by a club that can't get promoted, and therfore having knocked out a club that could get promoted.
I don't disagree with your idea, but just using example of there is never an ideal situation to please all. Therefore its not obvious.

Not ideal no , ideal is all clubs fill their stadiums every match and we get 30 million a year each TV deal , not to mention all clubs owned by billionaire Arab Sheiks

But we don't have that , so we have to accept an imperfect , but hopefully fair compromise , that's what I am suggesting , the fairest deal for all

Sometimes Leeeigh Leeeigh you post things that are completely the opposite of your other views. You try to promote Linux (good), but that is like promoting the championship over SDL/Franchising. Yet when it comes to 'open source' RL you do the opposite.

Starbugs idea is actually very good. Winning teams attract more fans full stop. Always has been true (except for our very own Manchester City, where the worse we got in the 90's the more fans turned up). New teams in CH1 will do better with help, win more games and attract more fans. A few years down the line when they are self sufficient then allow them to be promoted, as they will by then have a fan base. Makes sense to me. Of course if they think they can be self sufficient from the start then they should be allowed to be promoted 1st season.

I seem to have always supported the underdog and want them to succeed. I want RL to succeed because it is better than other sports along with football (which granted is already there). I want Leigh to succeed and win SL - impossible I know you may think but City are one of the favourites to win PL and are dark horses for CL and FA Cup holders (rediculous even had I dreamt it). As for open source software - again the best software is Open source, and a bit like RL is the worlds best kept secret. There is not one thing that M$ Windows can do that Linux can't do and more. If Open source software and linux stopped right now then internet would collapse, the top 20 super computers in the world would not work, Google would not be the powerhouse it is now, the latest inovative IT technologies could not be developed, and thats not including all the many desktops/laptops/tvs/routers/servers/phones etc etc that run Linux around the globe. Even Apples OS get their roots from open source. Its also Free. I will always talk up these subjects, but maybe not open source as much due to this being RL forum. icon_smile.gif
