I think he is too biased and blinkered by the shiny empty stands of clubs like Huddersfield to be taken seriously.

I think you will find the feeling is mutual.

Dreams dont pay the bills.

It is your assertion. If you want to use it in the course of the debate it is up to you to prove it.

Well maybe you can elucidate me with some other examples rather than relying on one which happened 5 years ago?


One which isnt necessarily ready for promotion, isnt necessarily better than the club it is replacing, isnt necessarily in a position to benefit from promotion, and isnt necessarily going to contribute to SL.

By ' lower ' I meant the bottom of SL and the top of the Championship , ie the ones actually affected by licencing

You posted this




It would look to me as you are in someway trying to suggest that just because we dont have relegation there are now no crap teams , there are always crap teams in every competition , having teams from the bottom half of SL in the play offs doesn't mean they arent crap , a system that means a club can lose most of its games and still be the winners of its competition is a farce

do you? thats interesting considering you asking me what i meant by lower. Strangely it seems to be a pretty similar definition. Makes me wonder why you bothered to ask for clarification then answer your own question.

to anyone who wasnt a silly old troll it would look as if i was suggesting that we shouldnt build our competition around not being the crappest, but building around being the best. Everything else you have made up in your sweet little head. a good job we dont have one then isnt it.

So the club that finishes 8 th in SL [ losing most of its games ] cannot win the play offs and the GF ?

not without winning more than they lose, not realistically no.

Could it happen ?

"Faxhali" You obviously have a very short memory. Its not that long ago that Halifax were in deep trouble and asked fans of all SL clubs to attend a game to provide them with enough money to keep them afloat. I was one of the fans that supported your club on that occasion. Is that how you repay us?

yes, there is a very small possibility,

there is also a very small possibility that every game could end in a draw bar 5, where one club loses 3 games and wins 2 and as such finishes top of the table having lost more than they won.

But these inconsequentially small possibilities only seem to matter to you.

Not a lot to play for then have they ? , make your mind up , they either have something to play for that is worthwhile , or they dont , and no matter how remote that possibility , it is a farce that a club can lose more games than it wins and win the sporting competition it is in

How can a club lose 3 games , win 2 games , draw the rest and finish above a club that draws all of them ?
