| Quote Wembley71="Wembley71"
But the clubs doing well, only act in their own interests. If the RFL had all the power, I'd bet that we'd have two full time divisions and a proper pyramid structure of a wholly summer sport. But the clubs run themselves, and the SL clubs control the distribution of the SL revenues, including sponsorship and tv rights. It's the clubs, too, who fritter it away and come cap-in-hand to the profitable RFL if it goes wrong.'"
I'd disagree with your 2 full time divisions Joe , it seems to me they are doing all they can to put as much ' air ' between the top two tiers of the sport as they can , they seem to lack any understanding of the sport at Championship level , I know I am repeating myself again , but it seems to be a recurring theme when I see what they do
I am truly dreading this announcement in march with the restructuring of the sport at our level , the Championships are competitive , if they change it either by making one big league or introducing licensing between them they will spoil it

We need more clubs , but it would seem the RFL prefer to help finance the odd single SL club rather than 2/3 new Championship clubs

| If SL is 14 clubs, why cant both Championship leagues also be 14 clubs each?
Get a team from Scotland and Ireland in Champ 1.

| Given crowds in Champ 1 I do not think either a Scottish club or an Irish one is viable.

Stoke or Derby/Nottingham [ basically 40/50 miles from the heartlands on the other hand are close enough to the heartlands for the RFL to put in 250 K a year to set up and run a club , that would pay for a reasonably competitive coaching and playing staff in Championship 1 , you would make them excempt from promotion [ now theres a novel idea , dont you think until the RFL funding was reduced so as not to upset the other \chasmpionship 1 owners and fans'"
great idea,let's do it !

Were they funded by the RFL in a competition with a salary cap and a non promotion clause ?
With a higher dual registration allowance and a reasonable overseas quota for 5/6 years things might have been different

Have we forgotten that until then Sheffield was outside the RL area? Mansfield were badly run, Sheffield had Gary Hetherington. Nuff said.
