Stobart is nothing to do with Clipper. I don't think Clipper will sponsor the league but that doesn't mean that Parkin who owns Clipper will not be involved in the game shortly.
They may have to pull the plug on their sponsorship with Widnes due to a conflict of interest but this hasn't bothered the RFL in the past.

Once a Sandal Wild Cat always a Sandal Wild Cat.
Some talk of Bradford Northern and some of Hull and Leeds
Of Wigan and St Helens and such great teams as these
Of all the teams in Rugby league with me you will agree
The best team in the whole wide world is Wakefield Trinity!

Who knows but i doubt many would question it if Wakey did the same.
Although it may explain a few things regarding a certain other interested party, and the dealing he had with the RFL.

Not really. And theories like this make us Wakefield fans look like morons.
If Stobart want national advertising at a good price, having their logo on TV both on live games, highlights and news bulletins by sponsoring Super League makes sense, regardless of which league a club affiliated to it may be in.
I'm sure for such a title sponsorship, other parties would have been interested, without 'blackmailing' the RFL into accepting a club into a league.

Cheers, tbh anyone saying Widnes have been 'fast tracked' is living in a different world to most  |

The RFL said a championship club was coming up. Did anyone think it wouldn't be Widnes? In fact, did anyone really think Widnes weren't coming up, regardless of what had been said?

Yes, contrary to what the RFL would have us believe, there was only one team who came close to fitting the bill. |
