You'd have thought so, also been noises about Quin's dropping out as current backer is no longer willing to cover the losses they incur. One things for sure, there's a lot of rumours going around. But come licence day I doubt they're going to stop. Clubs will still be running at a stretch to keep up there and with the economic climate still not being great, probably a matter of time until someone else goes bust

Almost certain, just a question of who. Not a month goes by when someone or other isn't grumbling about their finances. It would be interesting what help Quins would get in that situation in comparison to others.

I wouldn't get too over excited about the decision on the 26th, I very much doubt that Halifax will be chosen, various reasons spring to mind, such as not filling all the required criteria

Yes, you do have a reasonably decent ground, that would be if all 4 sides could be used , but with one suffering major structural failure, sorry thre sides to a ground doesn't count.

Youth policy, what youth policy ?

No, think on reflection, the ex coal miners/ cotton queens from Leigh, have a better chance than you.

Got to giveyou 9 / 10 for trying though, yes very trying, but failed miserably

Of course if you were the " best team by a country mile " in the is it second division you play in ?? you might have a very slim chance if we felt sorry for you, but otherwise, keep dreaming.

A non bolloxed up announcement would be Quins and Crusaders out and Fax in, but we all know that is not going to happen.

If there are no cameras down at the Shay on that day, then we arent in... Just look at how lucky Sky got having cameras at Widnes (just in case!!)

Didn't help that you told then you didn't want them their and then only agreed to one in the boardroom did it?

Widnes had 3 rooms full of fans, players & staff you'd want your cameras there either way (as they where in 2008)!

Re: Licence Announcment : Wed Jul 13, 2011 3:34 pm  

There are no cameras scheduled to be at The Shay on July 26th, so read into that what you will. Things may change between now though I admit, this is the RFL/Sky Rollercoster we are all riding!!

I am 99% certain SL will not contain a side from Halifax next year sadly.

Cos everyone should want their team to play at the highest level. Of course we want to dine at the top table. Who would not?

Only me it would seem , then again the prospect of continuous years getting spanked and having nothing to play for after round 7/8 doesn't appeal

I believe we could develop and build in Super League. I have a dream
