Shit ground, no fans clinches that precious spot in the lower leagues for you

FWIW I think if the heartlands of RL are suffering then look after your own and not anymore do we continue to look outwards, its time they looked inwards at the backbone of British RL grass roots clubs .......
Spend time and money investing in community development at the West hulls, Heworths, Thatto heath, crossfields, st pats and such clubs in the UK and start all over again, help clubs like Batley, York and so on with investment but no more Londons or crusaders for now till austerity is a thing of the past and finances look brighter , support the flat cappers who go to doncaster and whitehaven etc week in week out and bring their teams forward instead of taking the SL backwards by spreading the jam too thin

I like jam.

you are clearly whom they thought of when they banned brothers from marrying their sisters

They survive because their owner pours money into them. You're kidding yourself if you think enough travelling fans pitch up to fund their club.


The RFL have never given them money. The RFL has no authority to stop a club changing it's name or ground. The decision to re-admit them after they went bust was made by the club chairmen. And SKY would notice they had gone.

The only money spent on London is the money they are due from the SKY package, so whether they are in SL or not is irrelevant to how much gets invested in the grass roots.

BTW - do you know how much that is? Or have you just assumed that it's not much?
