My booty.

They're only 'independent' of the Championships, not Sooper Dooper league.

Sounds like it.

We should start by refusing to be promoted to SL if the bulls go pop. If they do

So - because there's no promotion - we should refuse to be promoted .......

It was my understanding that when London went into admin, reformed the next day and carried on in SL regardless there was no RFL rule to cover it. The rules were then changed so that, if a club went into admin, they lost their SL license. Am I correct? If so can anyone find it in the rules before the RFL quietly change it?

No, they changed the rule again to accommodate Crusaders.

I think you know exactly what I meant, smart guy!

Bulls get kicked out of Super League, someone will need to replace them. I'm saying championship clubs make it as difficult as possible for the RFL! Our financial projections will still be "speculative", Leigh's new stadium still "non-existent"!

If all championship clubs work together we can only make our fine product better. The RFL only keep proving they don't know what to do with the championships, that's why Fax had to trek to France for a pointless game!

Having said that, Big Nige would probably put Gloucester or Hemel Hempstead into SL if Bulls went pop

Ah, yes! I forgot about that. It's so difficult to keep track these days.

I wonder if it's worth setting up a company to manufacture sliding goalposts. I can think of one customer straight away.

Actually ...... no.

But now you've explained it, it's the daftest idea ever.

No offence intended.

Ha ha yeah! Now I've read it back, I couldn't agree more! Thanks for pointing that out! It's been a long week!

I do think championship clubs need to do something to improve their - but there's another thread in itself!

No offence taken! Cheers
