i hear the RFL approached Daryll Powell to ask his views on Fev being admitted to SL however when they knocked on his office door all they found was a note -

"gone dummy shopping with Mark Aston - back for tea"

Shame really, would be nice to have heard what he thought.

Both clubs would get shafted whilst in Super League - by the other clubs, by the referees and by the RFL. Come along, step into this burning pit of molten disaster, kill your club and disappear forever.

Neither club would do any better than Salford, Widnes or Castleford. Go and visit their boards and see how happy they are. For both our clubs, the best chance of top flight RL will come with a 2 tier SL and then a slow organic growth into the top tier. It would be suicide to go in now or 2015, unless a massive sea change occurs at either club.

This post may be un-ambitious and negative but that is what the RFL have reduced the game to. It is no reflection on either club or its tremendous fans.

2 tier SL with Relegation and promotion, would be my choice.

all teams in second tier should be deemed worthy of promotion without any silly bollox

What's negative about wanting to stay in a league that is competetive? Where nearly all the teams can reach a final? As most of SL fans keep telling us, we're where we are on merit,--"where we belong". I would love to be at the top table, but not at the expense of just makeing up the numbers, until the RFL decide to put Dulls or Toul13back in at the expense of my team in about 2-3 years.

The only "silly bollox" is the Fat controler and his minions.

You have my vote for this one mate.

Ray French said something on these lines in his collumn this week with central funding and even distrubution so as to give all clubs a fair chance.

I hate to mention this but, so far this season, we have averaged 2,172 and Fev have averaged 2,236.

Is that just Championship games, Championship and NRC games or Championship, NRC and CC games?
