Quote: easthull fc fan "It is sad to see a SL club up the creek.... but what is the point in them fulfilling the 2014 season with no players no ground tbf no fans. The RFL should use this next season to let a team each week have the weekly round off as they do in the NRL. Also give the team the 2 points what would have been on offer the squad would get a break twice in the weekly rounds. Its going to be there last season anyway even if the RFL pump them with cash to keep them afloat. Pretty pointless if they do that the money could go to another area maybe swinton or youth rugby.'"
I think its more likely we'll play a team twice at home, the clubs won't want to lose a home fixture. Especially us who play them on Easter Monday where we'd expect to see a bigger than usual gate.
as for London, about time they went, they've been a joke ever since they became Harlequins and the already small fan-base has dwindled. The RFL would be better spending money on helping clubs down South develop organically. Crusaders for example seem to be doing better living within their means in Championship1 than they did in SL, and have built a solid fan-base in Wrexham. Fans would rather see a winning team in a lower league than a struggling SL side being hammered every week.
