| The only way that the league would be extended is if the new TV and sponsorship deals are significantly increased on the last one. That is believed is unlikely in the current climate but you never know.

| Quote: Slugger McBatt "Reading the couple of sensible posters on there, someone posted the status of our chairmanship, in that Parkin wanted the club, and was prepared to bring in other billionaires, if the RFL could guarantee a place. Glover agreed that he would buy the club, and if we went down, he would keep it, as it would suit his more limited pocket (wish mine was that limited). If we got a franchise, Parkin would take over financially and pump money in.
[iNathan Brown has apparently said something about two teams coming up,[/i and how it would give more youngster a go. So I'm wondering whether that poster has got it right, that the nod has been given, that no one is leaving, and so Parkin is onboard. If so, the future is very bright.'"
Wouldn't "two teams coming up" (eg Widnes and Halifax) mean two going down (eg Us and Cas)? If he had said "Super League increasing to 16 teams" I would be a tad happier.

I haven't heard what he's said, but when he talks about being better because it will increase the amount of British players, it must mean a extra 2 teams, otherwise the situation wouldn't change as far as creating extra jobs for British players , with 2 up 2 down it would remain the same.

| One thing that has been proved at Wakey this year is that there is a lot of talent at other SL clubs not getting the break and game time they deserved. Mainly due to imports it would seem as well.

You can also look at the number of juniors that step up and do the job when injuries hit a squad. Look at the number of kids that are getting a go at Sts, what happens to them when Sts are back at full strength!
The talent is there, we just need to create opportunities for a realisation of potential, that and some more informed coaching.

| If the Mr Parkin rumour is correct could he possibly be the new sponsor of SL as Engage have ended their association?Don't know if 180 million is enough but suspect it might be and in return the league is increased and Wakey stay in.
When is the date of the new sponsor released?

Same thing crossed my mind but it also crossed my mind that Probiz might pull the same strings for the Tigers!

I don't think the naming rights for SL will reach a 10th of that figure, or even possibly and a 100th.

Ah, good old Feisal, the lifelong Cas supporter. I wonder if he's managed to work out which is the Wheldon Road End yet?

The rumour I heard is that Probiz want to take over as the sponsor of Super League. Part of the conditions would be that Castleford and Wakefield would stay where they are, and Halifax would come up as well, meaning 16 teams.

| Another rumour in regards to SL sponsorship/league expansion from Halifax, got off anoher forumProbiz to sponsor Super League with an expansion to 15 teams, Fax up Wakie down as part of the deal. A number of loan signings to be announced for Fax in the near future as they climb the Championship table to make the 'promotion' more credible.
Nobby to take over from Calland and lead them into SL next year.'"

That would be FAR better

So he could easily afford the sponsorship and would maybe outdo Mr Probiz(don't know how much he is worth)or give him a run for his money,so to speak.
If this is correct it could explain letting players go ie.Jeffries and signing players for 2 years,let the dead wood go,give the kids a chance to prove themselves for a full season then get some expensive experience in for next year whilst also retaining the good upcoming talent,spending the full cap.

I got told he wants to keep the locally derbies, and that it's better for Castleford to have us in Super League than not. I don't know how reliable this is to be honest.
