This was the Catalans team last night. Anyone who says another team of this is positive for SL has lost their mind.

So many people I talk to also find SL boring and predictable.
Interesting last night to hear Jon Wells saying the important thing for the new club is to bring a fan base. Carney instantly said it's the Bulls then.
Coincidentally, the club must have finished 6th or higher in the championship which we finished 6th.

I don't want us to go up but it wouldn't surprise me if we were chosen. The only way we could if there was a secret funder to make up that £800k shortfall and some help with the stadium. I would rather us play at VP. There are a few teams who share grounds they they don't own.

Agree above about Catalan. They are just like Toronto but closer. Imported players and no youth set up.
I do get the feeling they want the bulls back but we are just not ready unless things are being sorted in the background.

Good man, you are catching on.

We haven't had any shameless intrigue for a while. Go on then who do you think may secretly back us and make up the shortfall?

You don’t really think Cummings leaving Downing Street yesterday was a coincidence, do you?

Well the refs were sponsored by specsavers so we have some synergies already.

More and more noise we could be the 12th club. We'll be the bad guys yet only ones to benefit will be SL clubs from our away following, while virtually guaranteeing themselves safety from relegation. Genius from them.

John Davidson tweeting that the word on the street is that it's the Bulls. Grab the popcorn...

Going to look a bit rediculous if we get in due to fanbase then take about 200 to watch us get walloped at Wigan on a Thursday night

Absolutely this! Anyone going up is just guaranteeing the protectionist chairmen another safe year. No thank you!
