My idea, based on the idea of allowing 1 up 1 down each year, would be to allow each promoted team 2 years in SL minimum - i.e. protection for year 1. The models of Catalans and Crusaders have shown that after the 1st year a club can hold it's own. If you don't - then you get replaced. This way there is a chance for a club annually from the Championship and that would make that competition more intense - as well as adding spice at the bottom of SL - without having the same teams trading place each year.'" I said this at the before the beginning of the first franchise, like you say it gives the promoted side time to adjust, we must be wrong as the RFL have got better plans aside  |

Its like Ryan air booking a seat is cheap but by the time you have paid for luxuries such as a window seat, arm rests and seat belts it actually costs about 20 quid a piece

whats actually happened is we have got 3 buses, one had had the wrong fuel put in it and as result cant start, one has a driver that seems to want to take it to warmer climates, and one with bit of a mangled front wanted to be a double decker but we were only willing to offer it single decker status, and also hadnt paid its road tax for the last 20 years, we could not or would not fund this debt, so its gone to another bus company, to replace this final bus we got a bus mt kear had had before that cant indicate left or right, overtake, or go past a filling station.
and yes i feel better for that! |

Or you could allow the clubs chasing promotion to have an increased salary cap compared to those who don't have a license, but remove protection in year 1. In the short term it would impact on the competiveness of the second tier, but as the number of clubs with the right structure to support a licence grows the number of licences grows.
Ultimately you would then end up with a much larger group of professional clubs that are properly structured for a long term future and remove the need altogether for needing any sort of licencing/franchising. |

"Therefore, surely nothing in life is to be feared, only understood. Apart from getting shanked at the cash machine!"
I love this city,
this is my town.
We get a week out, without a doubt,
gunna sing it out loud.

We'll I'm at the festival this weekend, but even then I doubt a free bus would make me want to go to Salford.
By October this season will have vanished into the background and the bug will be beginning the niggle, come December we'll be pining for out RL back!
Don't get too down now, we have a lot to look forward to.

Aye, just behind the left handed screwdrivers and the tubs of elbow grease. |

If it's true, he maybe ought to reward the loyal season ticket holders with free entry as well, i doubt even with a free bus over it will temp fans to make the trip, it's a game of no importance to either club, the players of both Clubs will be glad to see the back of this season, same as the fans....a token gesture to save the club embarrasment me thinks

I agree can't believe Ted would have suggested this and that he thought it would be a good idea. Sounds more like something someone on a message board would dream up...
...crazy days...
