I am another who finds the above slightly alarming to be honest.
By all accounts we have spent heavily assembling a squad to finish in a potentially mythical 'Top 2'.
Worrying. |

The lads can only train and plan for what is definitely in front of them. A 'top 2' position finish, meaning a Grand Final place is a reasonable target with the squad they are assembling. |

Were they not supposed to be discussing this, immediately after the World Cup? |

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 |

Given the recent developments at Bradford ( we now have last years ' saviour ' Omar Khan announcing he will be taking legal action to recover ' investement ' in the Bulls which would effectively force them into administration ) the discussions have suddenly got more complicated
A complete mess, no wonder we have a group of club owners now asking questions |

I understand that the new league structure will be eventually accepted, the dispute is to do with governance rather than the new proposals.
What I am unsure of, is will the 'top two' who share money with the bottom two from next year's SL be decided based upon the league table or the play offs? As SL prize money is usually allocated based on the latter.

My understanding is that the 'top two' would be the Championship Grand Finalists. (who theoretically could be the 7th and 8th placed teams in the league  ) |

So a t least two play off wins are required, more than we have had in a number of years. Tough challenge but the team assembled is more than up to the job. For several reasons our attentions were mostly off field this year, I can't wait for next season to roll around and to be able to sit back and enjoy the greatest game!

And, until this format was suggested, most of we Leythers would have settled for ONE play-off win! |

I was advised that the top 2 will be the clubs that finish the league campaign in the top 2 positions and therefore referred as such rather than ' The Grand Finalists'.
I believe this was decided by the Championship clubs themselves and confirmed by the members of our board present at the recent LISA meeting.
However for me personally, wether any new format will eventually be introduced still very much remains to be seen.

Not sure Harold. Certainly recently our BOD were talking up 'getting to the GF', as being vital. Of course, being Rugby League, things may have changed! |

There is no way the ludicrous licenscing system will continue.
Every club is aware of the damage it has done to the pro game in the UK and France.

Has to be frustrating, trying to run a business, when unsure of what your ultimate aim is!
