It is pretty clear that 5 clubs are in line to be culled from Sl to make way for expansion into a wider framework.

In order for the drop are Wakefield, castleford, Hull KR, Huddersfield & Widnes and these clubs will be replaced by Dublin, Edinburgh, S Wales, Toulouse and Leicester.

Does it make any sense? no
Do I care any more? no
Am I looking forward to real rugby league in the championship? Yes

Nonesense!! - if what you believe was true there would be no point in the RFL promoting Widnes this time around. Hull Kr, never at worse they would merge but the SL needs two strong hull teams, they travel wel!! as for hudds, i disagree simply speaking.

as for the teams you mention coming up, leicester??? why?? the names you make are purely speculative and i would rubbish what you have suggested. shame it was not in a news paper it would make good for fish n chip wrapper!!

Oh dear. Do you think he was being deadly serious??

As if you could speak any other way!

Wooooossssssshhhh!

Is that the same Leicester who have had a reputation for pulling out of some of their away RLC matches in numerous years?

The story takes another twist. Plan B could well become plan A before too much longer.

C'mon then sixtogo,spill the beans.

yeah you cant say something like that without telling the full story....

Only something i've heard about Newmarket on the grapevine and i'm not sure of the ramifications for the club so best keep my powder dry for now. Good be bad news, could turn out well. IA or TRB if they are around may be in a better position to comment.
