But we're Leigh, they can't relegate us to the lower division. Good god, do they have no respect for the historic heartland clubs? Pushing all these damn froggies up and pushing us down, its a disgrace.

Hope RFL change the rule to just 1 up 1 down for next season.

That will help us then wont it

2 up 2 down isn't right. Its a mistake to have done it the season gone. We may have been given a reprieve from relegation if there was a situation that allowed it. Like Bramley (icon_wink.gif) coming in etc.
Regarding ourselves, we should be the best team next season so shouldn't (but this is Leigh of course) have any problems with just 1 up.
I sure miss them GF's.....

Cant wait.

Why are people still clutching at straws? I accepted we was down after the Batley result, so should everyone else.

How are we to recieve our fate?

Lethal letter?
Electric email?
Hanging on a phone line?
Gassed by the long drawn out chat of the lying cheating sons of bitches?

That what it feels like. Being on death row. Not as I would know what it's like.

Why , because we are breaking the rules as regards the salary cap ?

My conscience is clear on that score tbh. As long as we can afford it, and the club and RFL have sorted it don't care. The other clubs (should they be able to afford) should be allowed to do the same by getting rid of the silly salary cap.

We sure as hell moaned about the same a few years ago when we had Huddersfield and Salford down with us

Everybody is equal , but some are more equal than others

Do you feel the SL should get rid of the salary cap ?

I have learned there is no such thing as doing it "the right way" or having level playing field in professional sport.
SL should keep the salary cap. They are different comp and don't have P&R. We are separate comp and have P&R.

2 up 2 down is fine, IMHO, so long as there's not a great drop between NL1 and NL2 (as was).

2 up 2 down between SL and NL1 would never have worked (even 1 up 1 down didn;t really work) because of the huge gulf between the divisions.

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.

This years NL1 would've been over and done with at the bottom by April if it'd only been 1 up 1 down.

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.

Which is exactly why I have spent more time watching Championship RL this year than SL, despite being a Salford fan.
