There is no way a SL chairman is going to vote to share the reduced Sky money between 14 teams. It is just not going to happen unless Sky say we will give you X amount more to increase the league to 14 and they are not going to do that.

How do you get that?
They have said the only reason the 12 will expand is if they have 13+ A grade teams.
I would put a lot of money on us not being close to that.

Snowball's chance in hell!

TBF, In 2021 there was a strong application for a 14 team SL put forward to Ken Davey. It was looking positive until it came to the actual vote and Leigh was languishing at the bottom of the table at that time, and heading to the championship,and certain clubs then changed their tune with their vote, and Leigh went down.

I think there's more chance of us finishing the season in a play off position than there is of there being no relegation this season

Can't see it, plus it would make a mockery of the sport.

An interesting article but, talking of this season and the possibility of no relegation, it's on a par with Trinity making the Grand Final, not a bloody chance.
Of course, SL should be balanced, with no loop fixtures but, there have been many, many opportunities to implement this in the past but, with broadcasting monies falling, the SL clubs simply wouldn't vote to split the cash 14 ways instead of 12.

It sounds like a bloke down the pub telling his mate he's heard something and his mate believing it to be true.

It’d be the only sane reason why the club have just accepted the way the anniversary season has gone and done nothing to change it.

They've done loads to change it. It just hasn't worked yet.

Exactly, loan deals. Released players, brought players in. New coaching staff additions and investment from sponsors etc. there has been plenty of action taken and it could still be enough … just.

Keep supporting and we will see. Not time to give up yet.

And yet they blatantly ignored the most obvious change there was but that's not surprising in the slightest. We have a history of not making similar decisions which is what has got us to where we are today, it's happened with every single coach we have had under the current board apart from Poaching which is strange to me as he was probably one of the better ones.

We plead we don't have the budget and yet we make some really questionable decisions with the budget we do have, are we still paying Chester? Or did we honoyr his verbally agreed contract in one lump sum?

Wouldn't take much more tbh....
