| Last four Wigan, Saints, Leeds, Warrington, no surprises there.
Top teams playing each too often, so apathy setting in.
Sky TV has too much say.
No relegation interest in super league.
Door closed for all clubs outside super league.
Too much preoccupation in trying to develop the game in non RL areas. Always doomed to failure.
No wonder crowds are on a downwards spiral.
Unless there is a fundamental change to the way in which our game operates then RL will ultimately rank alongside synchronised swimming in terms of being a minority sport.

I would put their season ticket up 300% as I have not a clue why I pay my taxes for !!
Unfortunately, I am now too old for that !!
Ooch, that'll hurt.

| RL is becoming like the carling cup in wendyball, where PL clubs are selling tickets for 10 quid, 5 for kids, and getting pathetic crowds, even the top clubs.
Why is it a problem to have a northern based comp? The ARL do Ok and have tried expansion that has not really worked, except new clubs in the aussie heartlands (Auckland and Melbounrne excepted).
We need a fix for these problems, and soon......

I'd better make sure I renew my season ticket before November then when I turn 25

| The problem remains with the concept of the playoffs. When we had a single league where we didn't play each other twice a season, it made sense.
Now no one cares too much between the end of the regular season and the Grand Final.
Can't say I blame them either TBH.
