| It looks like it's more beneficial to not restart this season.

| In some aspects yes. It just destroys that bit of hope and can chip away at any hope of being able to start again next season, with as strong a squad and initial performances.
And, if it still or has ever bothered people, it does give Toronto a chance to stay up, assuming SL restarts and/or promoting & relegation are revoked this season. This then leads on to the worry that licensing may come back.
All these ideas and thoughts I've seen floated, so you can feel the urgency to want to have some chance, as soon as possible, of getting back into the top league before it becomes a closed shop again.
Of course you can't get promoted if you don't have a club (or at the worst and most pessimist, a sport), so it comes down to what is the best in at least ensure survival.
I don't have any answers, just like everyone, we'll have to be as pragmatic as can be.

| Licensing has to come back, but not like it was. We must protect the fan bases we have by expanding full time SL in some way. You can’t keep adding non UK clubs and keep the total at 12 or 14

Sadly Derek, I agree. It had only just started, hopefully next season can start on time. Club owners won't agree with me after all the cash they have spent, and all the sponsors/season ticket holders.

Would you pay £30 per game to watch via subscription?'"
Not £30 as I am a *nationally* below average earner, as it's about £20 to stand & watch in the North Stand then that's what I would pay, as long as it is made accessible on call up *as I am also a shift worker*.

You must have saved a few quid Ste. I haven’t seen any posts from you complaining in the last 3 months.

| More worrying according to League Express, Wildie is going to Fev, Reynolds to Toulouse and Addy to Salford. Are these just rumours?

| Given the decisions about the future of the game I can see why some players would move on, it there are positions in SL clubs it makes sense, but going to other Championship sides seems a more concerning move vis a vis our financial stability again.

Not according to Sammut, who tweeted yesterday (26th) that he/Leigh were ready to play in Toronto’s place in SL.

| Danny Addy is no longer a Leigh RLFC contracted player. He has earned himself a Super League gig. He could have achieved that with us but RFL decisions outside the club's control have expedited it on his behalf. He didnt really want to leave us in these circumstances, he was enjoying his Rugby again, but hey, Good luck to the boy. It's a short career.
