If NL1 and 2 (as was) can be made eqaully competitive there's no reason why 2 up 2 down shouldn't work, as it certainly adds to the excitement for significantly more clubs.

The bottom of SL was done and dusted in April too. |

3 up 3 down would also add to the excitement too.  There is 10 clubs in each league. Surely top 6 being an aim for clubs during season, but failing means a relegation fight. Where is the buffer zone like other comps?
Also 2 clubs up from C1 just devalues the achievement of promotion from such a small league. |

 Love him or hate him, 163 consecutive appearances should make Stuart Littler a Salford legend in anyone's book :Others/NA.JPG |

Which is exactly why I have spent more time watching Championship RL this year than SL, despite being a Salford fan.
Quote: Alexs Dad "3 up 3 down would also add to the excitement too. ![]()
Good point - let's have 5 up 5 down!?!
Seriously though, taking this season as an example, Donny were bound to go down and Dewsbury bound to go up before the half way point in the season.
That means that bottom half of NL1 and top half of NL2 have nothing to play for - it'd make it as dull as the bottom half of SL?!
How about a system like the Scottish FA had (may still have?) where the bottom of Div1 goes down, the top of Div2 comes up then next-to-bottom in Div1 plays next-to-top of Div2 in a two-legged (home and away) playoff to see who deserves the spot in Div1 the year after?
That would seem like a reasonable compromise, and gives the RFL another end of season, high stakes 'spectacle' which they seem to like.

I don't know how you would fit GF into all of that tbh. My ideal situation is 1 team winning GF of C1 goes up. Once you are giving clubs 2 chances of going up from only 10 clubs then thats when its devalued.

Say's who, as I understand it there are regulations in place to allow teams to be over the salary cap - Mr Wood says so, so it must be true  |

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 |

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 |
