I'm trying to take a positive out of this.

Makes me wonder if the club is easier to sell playing out of Ealing; just below the SL, with no debts(DH will pick up I assume), a history of playing in the top Div, a desire from most in the sport to expand the game, limited staffing/playing costs (affordable SC for a wealthy guy), linked up with another form of rugby, P&R back in, only tied in for 3 years, possibility to look at the Wigan experiment......

For us looking back it is doom and gloom, for a wealthy guy looking forward is the club in a good position to take it on with some hard negotiation with the RFL beforehand.

Is that as creative in its imagination as the announcement yesterday

Aspuoea feel free to toddle off and do that then mate, some of us actually like watching rugby league so personally can't see the appeal of option 3.
Not sure if you realise it's your choice to watch or not.

Interesting that Trailfinders have a number of secondary pitches which may well meet our needs if we continue to attract fewer fans than Championship 1 clubs.

Aspuoea, your option three is no option for me. Like Mickey I too enjoy watching Rugby League. It is my choice and I will continue to do so until such time as I decide not to..

So you go and join The Ramblers Association or get a caravan if you want to. I will continue to do what I choose to do.

Slightly OT, sorry, but interesting that 100 miles or so to the west, one of our many former CEOs is still showing plenty of ambitionLionelHurst ‏@hurstlhurst 17h17 hours ago
