I dont think we meet any of the criteria do we? and probably never will. I know times are hard and cost cutting is taking place but i think a cash injection of between £2-3 million is needed if the so called dream will ever come true. icon_confused.gif

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg



It does seem strange to be cutting staff at the same time as saying you can make the jump to SL in 5 years

You read an article like rlthisrl and I think that he talks complete and utter sense and is the perfect guy to run the club.

But then you take a step back and think Super League? In five years? Through sustainable growth? And the concept all of a sudden seems to be conflicting with itself.

I'd love to see it happen but I can't see it coming to fruition in 5 years. Maybe 8 though.

Not a chance in hell , not saying what he has put isn't true , but he is missing the fundamental point that the sport cannot finance the business

' Lapsed ' fans are lost fans , they are gone , the world has changed , their expectations have not changed

Collaberation between clubs is the only answer , but do your owners have the foresight to see that ?

Quote: wonderer "I remeber a guy named Mick some years ago who had the same dream, it almost came true, before he came to keighley people were saying the same thing as now, keighley will never win the 3rd division? they will never win 2nd div, then the same people were saying, they will never win premiership final? come-on give the guy a chance'"


That was all done before the start of SL.
In those days P/R was still in place so the dream could be achieved.

Its not the same now. There are so many things to be done to get us into SL.

No disrespect as this applies to 21 of the 22 clubs in the Championships

There are so many things to be done to get you into a viable self sustaining Championship club
