Interested in your suggestion then Dog.
Not many clubs in any of the leagues who are actually self sufficient, so they nearly all need cash thrown at them by a generous benefactor to keep going, without those benefactors there is no sport, and it’s not just RL in that position either.
Another comment from a previous post, you say TWP dilute the talent pool. That then raises the other question, so what if they dilute the talent pool? You only increase that pool by expanding, in sport to expand you have to accept the pool of better players will be spread thinner to get other players to that standard, if as a sport you are not willing to do that you can never grow.
Do we (nothing to do with us) let them into SL? If they earn that right then why not, but it has to be earned, I am not a fan of franchise and buying your place in the top flight per se, for me, and yes it’s my opinion the only way up should be promotion and relegation. Yes I know in effect with spending on recruitment TWP are still buying there way in but you can’t really change that unless you go NFL route.
But along with that you have to have a financial structure and player contract protection that does away with the current impact of losing the million pound game.
Are TWP a good investment for the sport? That’s up to woodsy to decide
HOW MANY TIMES?????
