not really surprised by some of the downbeat posts, as some of us seen it coming.

there is a lot of good things going on in the sport, i.e sport england and the money from the tv deals etc.

for ages i and others said that increasing to fourteen teams with a top eight system would not work, especially with no relegation. your playoff race has to be where finishing just one place higher with say two or three games left would benefit your team.

i would...

have 12 teams possible even 10, now that the ink is dry on the aussie tv deal.

top 5 playoff.

reward teams in some way who bring players through the youth system. even more so now with the tv deal down under.

get shut of wood and appoint someone from outside the game. people will start to see how good lewis was the longer we have wood in charge. as they say you don't miss them till they have gone.

get shut of cummins. the standard has nosedived since the aussie (forgot his name) left.

consistency in the handling of discipline in red hall.


i don't mind P&R as long as we don't end up with just another yo-yo effect.

they can pat each other on the back for things such as the increase in crowds (and rightly so) but the test will be to keep those fans and if the clubs keep taking the mick out of the fan by just needing to do enough then they only have themselves to blame when one day they ask where did they all go.

Do you not think that it makes to much sense?

Agreed in principal but the powers that be still want 2 major club finals thus the GF will stay as we know it.

The problem with a 12 team super league would be only 11 home games for each club, i believe most club chairman wanted the guarantee of 13 games for revenue reasons

The CC rounds need to be closer together (no pre season games)with a June final,i.e
4th rd 1st wk in April
5th rd 3rd wk in April
6th rd 1st wk in May
SF 3rd wk in May
Final in June.

Therefore break of 10-12 weeks to play offs

No Magic Weekend

Play Offs
The league leaders to be given credibility (cash incentive and direct access to the GF) 2nd place to 5th place straight knockout, downside the LL will have a 2 week break to the GF.
All challenge cup & play off games ..£10 for adults - £5 for juniors.

The world cup challenge at the end of the season between the top two clubs from either side
LL & GF winners if same the CC winners, the Aussies will choose their own.

Return of the tours if room can be accommodated in the schedule

I still think the club would gain support if they offered cup ans play off games at 10 quid per adult and 5 quid per concession

Salford given a winding up petition: www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/rugby-league/ It's about time we moved to a 10 team competition and quick.
