I've long wanted a 14 team league and the end of loop games, but if SKY keep reducing the TV deal there's no chance the clubs will split the money into more slices

Itll take years to find a suitable site, get planning permission and get it built, they could be at the Shay for a while, during that period surely their support will dwindle given how they struggle to get crowds in Huddersfield itself now, then when they move back they'll have to rebuild the fanbase again, doesn't seem sustainable really, wonder if a merger with Halifax is a possibility
