Looks like you were right Dico, to a certain extent anyway.

YOU CAN LEARN FROM THE PAST BUT NOT RELIVE IT.YOU CAN HOPE FOR THE FUTURE BUT CAN NEVER BE SURE THERE WILL BE ONE.: |

| Well it certainly looks like it maybe doesn`t it ? Except for the fact that the protest was nothing about us not geting in Super League it was about transparency and a fairer deal for all Championship clubs and as such the protest carries on. There were people who bought Tshirts inc` Widnes supporters who also gave us encouragment so I don`t think we will be going away just yet.

Do you not believe your own chairman? Maybe best having a meeting with him first, considering "the assessment was fair and objective" after all.
You say this "protest" is nothing about not getting into SL, but your statement kind of hints that it was how all this started. I'm also pretty sure you wouldn't be protesting had you been chosen either.
The Fax board have either realized they was a bit quick criticizing the decision and found it fair after all having discussed it with RFL, or (less likely) they have been given some kind of promise for next time which if the chairmans rant is to be believed means he got burnt once and he is ready to wait to be burned again. Either way he looks a bit silly now.

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 |

How does he know it was ' fair and objective ' ? , has hasn't seen the other bids
Yes it did , but more at the way it was done , if Fax's application was so far behind Wakefields [ without doubt the weakest in the opinion of probably 90 % of the media and fans of the sport ] why were they even in the process ?
Explain to me how any club now outside SL can put together a better bid than any club in SL ? , other than to attract a billionaire , cheat the salary cap , let fans in for free and fudge even free entry figures , promise to sell ST s for a tenner and outbid all their local SL clubs for the best juniors ?
We truly are Rugbys Forgotten Leagues , they only show interest in us when they've sorted SL , messed about with the grass roots and thought about their next crazy idea on expansion , we are that annoying child who has come back to the table asking for some more Gruel in ' Oliver '
Now if you're happy with that fine , but a few more years of that and you'll be happy with that stood on your own in the north stand at the LSV

| Maybe to answer most of those questions you need to go to that meeting I suggested for Johny and the gang. The chairman seems to be happy with the process, so let him explain. Though their chairman does seem to swing from one extreme to another so he may have changed his mind again.
This thread started because Fax did not get into SL. It shouldn't even be on this message board. Had they posted something relevant to all the clubs in the Championship, and not about their opinion of how unfair that RFL had the cheek to refuse Fax when clearly a "2 year old" could see they was ready.
As for the Championship I am with you to a certain point. But just like you being so keen to get the format of the Championship sorted for next season, you have seen it isn't that easy. There is no guarantee that the RFL could finance another club so we are stuck with 19 clubs at the moment - and despite all the comments of this should have been sorted by now, nobody has come up with a format up to now either.
IMO as I said before I think Wakey should have come down which would have given us 2x 10 club leagues, and removed a club from SL that everyone apart from Wakey thought should have dropped. Whats done is done though and we still have difficult situation of a league of 9 clubs at the moment.

| It would appear though that the Championship clubs ALL want more than NINE home League games and that the RFL agreed with that - back in February. Granted that increasing the Championship to 12/14 - the RFL's quoted figures - would create problems in Championship One, but the RFL was addressing that as well, by inviting applications to play in Championship One.
