just pick up your phone like me and tell sky you,re cancelling your sky subscription because your team is stuck in the national league for 3 years now there is no promotion or relegation,and you,re not paying to watch teams in super league playing for nothing half way through the season because there is now no threat of being relegated.Just think if 10,000 national league 1 fans did the same as me and cancelled there sky monthly subscription sky would be 5 million pounds down in revenue in 1 year..With such a loss sky would demand the r/f/league bring back pro/relegation back next season to the super league
REMEMBER UNITY IS STRENGTH

..... and I'll be standing in the Hilton Park stand, yes that's right I've named the North Stand myself: |
|
| If I could just cancel Super League I would but I'm a big football and wrestling fan as well so that's not going to work for me.
What I am going to do is not watch any SL games so they will be missing viewers if not subscriptions |

Is harry pinner richard lewis in disguise on the widnes site
Harry Pinner wrote: Promotion and relegation hasn't been scrapped it's just been changed. It'll now only happen every 3 years and it'll be based on a club's ability to survive and develop in the higher division. Promoted clubs will have a bit more time to prepare for the step up and then 3 years to build a stable base in the competition meaning they won't just have to sign all the players from the relegated side and sack all the players currently on their books because they've had no time to do anything else.
I think even fed up Widnes fans must admit that it wasn't working in the previous format.

Agree completely. The whole thing about being able to put proper long term plans in place with the new system is rubbish. The thing about the old system that encouraged clubs to go for broke was the uncertainty of whether a particular season would be their last chance before the drawbridge was pulled up. If we'd simply guaranteed P&R based on on-field performances, but subject to meeting minimum off-field standards, and ensured that all clubs and standards were assessed fairly across the board (including current SL clubs and "expansion" clubs), then everybody would have been able to plan for long-term improvement just as easily (if not more easily) than by removing P&R altogether.
Look at the applications submitted by Leigh, Widnes, Fax etc this time. After 3 years with less spectators watching a competition that offers nothing to play for, the NL clubs will be lucky if they are able to even maintain the same standard of infrastructure in 2012, never mind trying to improve it in that time, so if we're not good enough now what chance do we have in 2012? And that's without the possibility of further expansion clubs like Toulouse coming into NL in the meantime and expecting to be fast-tracked like Celtics. The only chance us/Widnes/Fax have is hoping one of the current SL clubs goes bust or loses their plans for new grounds etc. And I don't want to be hoping for other clubs to fail as the only way my club has any chance of getting a shot, just like I hate the idea of clubs in the bottom half of SL pocketing their SKY money and finishing comfortably bottom of the pile, but knowing their SL status is safe and their payday is guaranteed next season as well, while so much hard work in the NL clubs goes unrewarded. All clubs go through good times and bad times (thats sport) - in the good times you deserve your success to give you a chance to test yourself at a higher level (if there is one) and in the bad times if you're not good enough you make way for someone else until you can improve your standards.

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 |

| Sky run by the BILLIONAIRE Rupert Murdoch worried by 10,000 people unsubscribing 
if 100,000 people unsubscribed he still wouldn't be worried |
