Quote MattyB="MattyB"Surely Leigh? Better Stadium and facilities and it would even up the number of clubs on either side of the Pennines. (Would be more beneficial to Wigan as well regarding away support at the DW).
That said, a settled London club with 'Koucash' style owner would be a hundred times better than any Championship club coming up, doesn't look good though.'"
no championship club will want to replace London for 2014 unless they are given an assurance by the RFL that they will also be in super league for 2015 as well. They wont have time now to recruit players, they would all be better off preparing to get the squad in place for the promised promotion place that will exist in 2015...
The Magic weekend will be a complete farce as someone is going to be gifted 2 points by either playing a very poor London, a replacement Championship club or no-one at all...
Surely the only thing to do is about it is announce that the team at the bottom of the league as at the last round before magic gets the "london" fixture.
