| Before everyone gets excited, read what has actually been agreed by SL clubs.
They have confirmed that SL will reduce to 12 teams in 2015 to be supported by a 12 team Championship.
They have asked the RFL Executive to investigate two options around a 12-team competition.
One option involves a 12-team Super League running in tandem with a 12-team Championship which after 23 rounds split into three qualifying play-off groups, each comprising eight clubs.
The other option is for two divisions of 12 with a more traditional style of promotion and relegation between the two competitions.
The 2015 Championship would then be made up of 2 relegated SL clubs from 2014, Toulouse (presumably a shoe in) and 9 clubs from the 2014 Championship (the top nine?). Below this i suspect that ther will be Championship 1 clubs split regional.
Competition for places in the 2015 Championship will be interesting next season

| Is it the perfect solution for us - probably not
Does it give us something to go for - most certainly yes
Are we going to give it our best shot - absolutely yes

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 |

There is only one solution to this, semi pro all round.'"
Compared to going bankrupt due to our fan base having ' passed away ' and not replaced due to lack of interest

| Clubs stiill go bust under current system.
The custodians of the clubs have responsibility to keep there club going. If they can't afford it they shouldn't spend it. That way all clubs will find their level. If they increase income then they could possibly aim higher. Really simple.

icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg How is education supposed to make me feel smarter? Besides, every time I learn something new, it pushes some old stuff out of my brain. Remember when I took that home winemaking course, and I forgot how to drive?:icons077e_files/4864-863FALH-msnicons.jpg |

HA HA HA
Bet it's not the 'bottom 2' relegated, RFL will choose. We can't lose London or French/Oz Dragons can we ???'"
Pretty sure Cats have got less Oz players than a few other sides.
