And so you aim towards the sky,
And you'll rise high today,
Fly away, Far away,
Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg |

| For the good of the game and its overall image it has to be Widnes.
Just watching NorthWest news the other night, they had a reporter at the Stobart and a fellow at Barrow's ground and the difference was immense.....Widnes have a decent, modern looking stadium, Barrow's looked like something from the dark ages... 
If the RFL are looking to make our sport a marketable product, then there would be little sense in getting rid of Wakefield and their dishevelled Belle Vue ground, just to replace them with Barrow and an even more grotty looking ground. |

I think the RFL only announce the club entering SL from 2012 next Thursday. No mention to be made then of who will get relegated.
It has to be Widnes surely?
They have a great ground, good coaching staff, a youth system that's really working and a business plan that's showing itself as a success with top name sponsors.
It will give us a good balance of clubs then east and west of the Pennines.
This side, Wigan, Salford, St Helens, Warrington, Crusaders and Widnes.
Other side, Huddersfield, Bradford, Leeds, Castleford, (Wakefield) Hull FC and Hull KR.
Then Quins and Catalans are the out of area expansion clubs.
It will be Widnes!

[quote="Rob Wire":qtnftxzx]WIGAN ARE BACK to what exactly ? Oh i see what you mean, back to beating weakened teams. How many key players did we have missing in the cup ?
Just remind us again how many key players did Saints have missing in last years grand final ?
When did you actually last beat a strong Saints or Warringtom team ? Don't include beating us last year at the HJ, we had a lead of around 14pts and were cruising then we lost both Briers and Monaghan, another example of Wigan capitalising on other teams misfortunes.[/quote:qtnftxzx]

| I think it will be Widnes but I'd love to see Halifax get it. In a dream world I'd love to see my local side the Hunslet Hawks in Super League!!  |

Widnes are nailed on to get the nod on Thursday, despite today's result.

If your guys had done what they should have and been eligible i still think theyd have gone for widnes due to history etc. Shame you didnt qualify and then them deciding to kick two out. Who else can be kicked out now though really? Cas have new ground coming as do salford. Quins are playing better (wire game aside) crusaders will never be dumped by the rfl until they go completely bust and nor will catalans. Maybe they should just make it 16 teams and bring two up. |

We wouldn't have been up to scratch off-field anyway as a lot of departments seem to have gone backwards since leaving Hilton Park, though the community department are doing some sterling work. Think Wakefield for the chop this summer and then the drawbridge will be raised. |

If widnes get pick to enter SL on thursday the other two [fax and barrow] will then be placed along side the existing SL clubs and judged with them. |
