I wouldn't go if it was free.the players have given in.we give Marshall a new contract.his record is worse than Harrison's.

Don't talk stupid.
Does anyone think a team from our division will get promoted?
"Yes we lost money by not finishing in the top four. life goes on.
Most people thought Harrison was a good signing. Sometimes things just don't happen.
I think RM will create a great tem for next year.

What's the point playing then,if we have no chance of getting promoted.

You can't get promoted out of super league so what's point playing in that too?
It's sport that's why you play not to just get promoted.
Siddal can't get promoted frim their division should the just give up? Or try be the best team at that level?

Every team has a chance of promotion, which is better in my eyes. The championship is getting stronger by the year as a result. Players like Higham , Sammut and Gaskell playing in our league shows how far the championship has come. Leigh have a real chance this season of getting promoted.

I have always believed the aim of an amateur sports club is to achieve the best results it can, with the players avaiable and in doing so those players enjoy their participation.

For a professional (or semi professsional) club, players must still get satisfaction from what they do but the club should seek to achieve the best they can with the resources available. Which is why I believe you don't always have to come top to achieve your goals.

At the moment I can guess what the club are aiming for, and failed this year, but I would like a clear statement from the BOD to clarify this and set expectations rather than the constant waffle about "building foundations" etc.

We had a better chance of getting promoted under franchising.

I've no idea why folk didn't see that at the time.

Whilst I vaguely see your point the process was flawed, how Wakey kept in their was beyond a joke, when Crusaders folded 2 teams should have gone up, if that had happened then maybe people would have been able to support the process. The RFL bottled it and lost any credibility it still had at the time.
