Which could also apply to many other clubs, not just those 3 you refer to, both in Super League and outside.

No it couldn't , those 3 clubs are not replacable , all the others are easily replaced , even Leeds or yourselves

That is why those 3 are different

yes so rfl = corrupt

I think it was excuse of administration.But hey new board now.It ok to bail london out when where in debts of 3 million? That means corruption.Anyway nevermind you never know next may get rid of others for scottish team,irish team and a midlands team.

What does this mean?

This ‘100 years’ rubbish is a pathetic, and meaningless, platitude trotted out by the terminally thick on the VT. There are many clubs in the Championship and Championship1 that have been as successful, or indeed more successful, over the last 100 years or so than Wakefield Trinity.

So do you, in fact, only mean the last decade or so?

As far as ‘newer clubs’ are concerned, then they are supposed to be judged on the same criterion as everybody else. I think it is clear that they are not. So the question should be: What is so special about them?

Please don't, it will only encourage more badly argued griping.

with due respect to leigh from what I saw of their performance last night, they are are light years away from even competing at the bottom of the table,
if they was to get a way in to the super league with their new stadium, they would only reap the benefits of the team that they replaced with most of their players

Selfish man
Why should Rovers who by the way have won honours in recent memory be a feeder club to anyone?

Listen mate Leigh have paid little for the team this year, mainly local kids making the step up as part timers, we even rested our more needed last night.
Give us £2.5m more income, which is what SL does as a minimum and the new stadium would make us as good as the bottom two now.
Guarantee entry like CC or Cats were and we could build for it, yet both will have finished bottom in the first year

Having visitied BV for the first time in about 20 years last night, I must admit to thinking it hadn't changed much and if this is what the RFL are wanting to get rid of then I can see their reasoning.

And then, stood up on a terrace with a pint surrounded by Wakefield fans creating a half decent friendly atmosphere watching good rugby, I thought 'why the hell should this lot be potentially kicked out for anyone just because the ground isn't a charachterless concrete lump?' Its nonsense.

Give me a raw BV over the JJB or Galpharm anyday of the week. Access to the topflight should be on merit, same rules for all of us, not on how many baby changing facilites you have.

I've seen Leigh win at pretty much every top flight club over the years and the thing that pi55es me off the most though is patronising SL fans looking down their noses from their lofty perches at clubs who have more tradition and success than their own, and waxing lyrical about how wonderful they are and how we should run non SL clubs. Thats very easy to say when theres a juicy cheque from Sky sat on the boardroom table.

well said that man
