I actually feel despite relegation, we're the team that's going to benefit from this. (Quick someone bookmark this for 3 years time so you can grief me when we're playing in league one)'"
Joking aside, that could happen if we don’t go down with the right attitude and preparation!
Some very good teams in the championship but to be honest I welcome a break from SL, which is dictated by Stains, Wigan, Leeds and possibly Warrington and I’m sick of it. They have the clout in SL and unless you have a backer like Derek Beaumont then you’re absolutely not going to get a rub of the Green! |

It's not just cash though is it? Compare Shudds with Leigh.
With so much available and going on in such close proximity, that LSV must be the best venue in SL for a start. Go to Wigan, Saints or Wire you just get out of the car and walk into the ground. Hull KR have tried to emulate it a bit at that open end but don't really come close. Leeds does have the Headingley area to offer. |

I’d hate to see us avoid relegation by default, take the relegation and hopefully come back stronger. Just out of interest AA, when were Cas unfairly relegated? |

I assume he's referring to when Catalan were protected so Cas were relegated as second from bottom. |

Exactly that...wasn't that when Wigan broke the salary cap to stay up as well?
Edit: just seen that point made by Mopsey...not like me to be so slow  |

I don't think this is even a thing. Cas ground is not sub standard enough to be kicked out of the league. It's just someone starting a rumour.
I'd even support Cas in defending this at our expense.

Likewise. We need to take our medicine and move on. Go get our ducks in a row, get back up and make sure we are never in this position again. |

What's the prospect of Wakey getting it SL status if both Cas n feath manage to remain in SL
Don't think 3 clubs all from the same district would be looked at favourable

There is no 'favourably'. If we all get the points, we are all in. We lose the value in catchment no matter what league we are in.
No different to Leigh and Wigan. They get the crowds so no one is worried. |

Apologies as it strays away from the thread slightly but I was only thinking yesterday just how well we'd go if we didn't have 800 clubs in the WF catchment area.
Wakefield
Castleford
Featherstone
Dewsbury
Batley
Surely we'd be pushing 10k gates. |
