Things like the TV deal etc aren't voted on by the SL member clubs, aren't they?

I know what you mean j.c. but if it is part of SKY's offer then they may have no other choice if nothing else is on the table.
I really don't know who is in charge and who makes the crap decisions, is the SL decision supposed to be made by an 'independent' panel.
Who knows, it's all on a par with FIFA at times.

Cas are ahead on support yes but not on stadium, we have a better facility now.
e.

The only reason they're so far ahead on support is that Fax have been languishing in this non-entity of a league they call the Championship. Seriously think we would be way ahead of Cas with a three year head start.

Just can't see the powers that be giving us a sniff of a chance, but we can live in hope for the next 20 days...

Sky will make the decision.

Just to let all Fax fans know, drove past the Gal? Stadium (Huddersfield) and the Market Tavern where we all used to go has shut.
Not to mind, a brand new pub across the road "The Yorkshire Rose" has just been built.
Get more of us in there next season.

It'll be another Presidential style podium announcement by Lewis. Awful. Just awful.

I just dont see us in SL and personally think it's a closed shop. I think the next thing I'd like to get involved in is a trust meeting where us Championship clubs talk about a breakaway! We could just have something with that!!

A breakaway is a not starter Chris , collaboration on the other hand is a must if the Championship clubs are ever to get anywhere

A breakaway?
To where?
A sponsor?
Who? (see other thread about championship attendances)

I think you will find that next year with only Sky interested in Super league we have been "broke" away.

As Starbug says, best to try and work together.
