Well, I for one am very glad to see Celtic Crusaders (and Harlequins!) in Superleague. And yes, I'm from Sintellins, which is in that wonderful nether world known as the heartlands.
I'm keeping everything crossed that the Crusaders make it through their first year uncertainties in the same way the Dragons did and they grow as a club and a team; that the great work being done by the Quins and Skolars in London really begins to pay dividends and that Quins stay in the play offs; that Gateshead Thunder manage to avoid relegation to Championship 1 so they can build on the good work they've been doing in that soccer mad part of the world; that the Nottingham Outlaws and Bristol Sonics can keep producing the goods outside the fulltime game; that Barrow win their grand final (because although that part of the world is a traditional heartland, it has been neglected); that Bradford Bulls get on board to spread the game into the Asian community; that the sport really catches on in Jamaica, because I'd love to visit the country, and that the BBC wake up one day and realise that they've been letting a fabulous product pass them by, and they actually start to put the Superleague Show on at the same time every Sunday for a full hour nationwide!
I don't ask for much.
However, I do want Crusaders fans to know that there are a lot of people who feel the same way I do: that we want rugby league to succeed all over the place, are fully on board with expansion and look forward to taking trips to far flung corners of the country (and globe!) to support the game and our particular team. It's a great sport and I don't understand how anyone doesn't want it to succeed.
