Like us (Leigh) for instance!

I didn,t post all my Fax supporting friend had said just what I thought to be pertinent to this thread. So if my post has annoyed you it is my fault and I apologise.

don't worry it's not annoyed me.

it just amazes me how many people claim to know whats going on at bramley.

when we dont ourselves

it says in todays League Weekly that Leigh will definitely be playing in Championship 1 next season there may be changes at the end of next season but this year things are as they are with Leigh and Donny down

and what was the source of this news?

Never noticed that. If it was the report about our meeting with the RFL, then in the absence of anything else it has to be assumed we are in Championship 1 which of course is where we will probably be, but who knows. Pea could you point me to the piece you are referring to in the paper.

sorry I cant Iv'e given the paper to fred Lunn

We've been up and down more often than a bride's nightie in this thread, now stop it, I'm going dizzy.

Ive heard from my mate in Tanzania who works for the goverment, that we are going to be put in their national league. Our local derby will be the Mwanza Pirates.

I've been told we are moving to Leigh on Sea and as such will be in an expansion area. This will mean we will be exempt from relegation and can have upto 8 non eu passport holding players, although we'll probably on use 3.
When everyone moans at us that its not fair, we can just say that we are playing by the rules set down by the RFL.

well ive heard that within 30 years because of global warming we WILL be Leigh-on-Sea and because of our elevated position will be the only club this side of the pennines (to be renamed Halifax sand dunes) and therefore will be classified as an expansion club.

It's in a piece written by Rebecca Smith under " Leigh ARE relegated confirm RFL" in the League Weekly paper but after explaining that Leigh and Donny will be relegated it then says an RFL spokesman said, "AT PRESENT we have no plans to increase the number of teams in C1!.

I think part of the answer is in Mr Woods interview in RL World

When asked if more clubs would be entering the semi pro ranks , he replied " If you had asked me that question 12 months ago I would have been more confident , however with the present economical climate we have had to put things on hold "

So they have a problem , nobodys going to risk chucking a load of dosh at an expansion club in the near future but they also have the problem of lop sided fixtures and gaps in the playing season causing financial problems

So what is the answer ?

Bramley ?

How about the winner of C1 GF not being up to standard required. Obviously only tell them after GF tho.
