14 team Superleague : Thu Apr 20, 2023 7:09 pm  

I've heard a rumour today that IMG's preference is for a 14 team Superleague with (likely Fev and one other club) being promoted at the end of this season and NO relegation.
Has anyone else heard this ??

All I've heard is that they'll go beyond 12 teams if they are all A grade.

I can't see any other club backing a plan to save us.
Maybe if we can put some pressure on Hull.

It could account for why we changed our stance on the vote ??

That rumour was started on social media by a Wakey fan! The criteria clearly states 12 teams at the outset. It will only go above that once there is more than 12 grade A's.

Wishful thinking on behalf of one of our own supporters although all it would mean is we have another season of poop awaiting us.

It always has and was made common knowledge a long time ago.

Fev go up this season then we could go up next with higher IMG score.

No idea if true or not but would it change the clubs approach.
For me the club would have to take a total different path.
I'm bloody sick of the clubs owners who have made no attempt to take the club forward and compete, it's almost like this season was planned.
Its impossible to implement what Trinity have and expect anything other than relegation. If survivals handed to us on a plate I doubt very much the club would change or have learned any lessons from this season

I know. Its like Jeez, couldn't they have at least tried to build a stadium that would give us minimum criteria for Super League or make the club a viable concern financial.
