So Widnes have a place from 2012 he says? Where's the proof? Not journalism, it's one persons opinion. Same as on here.
(And is Oakwell officially the back-up now then?)

Hudds are sharing with Halifax for a few games. I believe this is due to the pitch being relayed.

| Quote: "Widnes are as deserving of a Super League licence as many of the clubs currently in the top flight, but in what way would promoting Widnes and relegating either Castleford Tigers or Wakefield Trinity Wildcats – the two clubs most likely to get the chop – enhance the competition?'"
My point exactly. Most of the players from the relegated club would join Widnes adding nothing whatsoever to the league.
Widnes Tigers/Widnes Wildcats anyone? |

Yes, that's what Ken Davey told the crowd in his half-time spectacular when we played at the Galpharm. |

| Copy it - stick it on an e-mail - and send it the RFL and ask them to answer the points raised!  |

A good article, to the point. I've emailed both the RFL and the YEP to ask if a response is to be given/asked for.
Whilst clubs are unable to legally challenge SL over decisions such as these (As I understand it by their own operational rules), I find it hard to accept that any club who would stand to lose out would accept the implications of this and not at least raise it with the RFL beforehand. I can see why they made the announcement to appease fans of teams who wish to join, but they've created a problem they didn't need to which opens a window to complaint before the process is properly underway.
As for who'd lose out, it may refer directly to us and Cas in Yorkshire, but a loss of either of us for a non-Yorkshire team bears some thought for other teams in the area. I'd include Shudds in that too, as if it were us who lost out, it'd cost them 4-6 points, +100 points difference and a player or two every season.
