and yet Nigel Wood hasnt been in charge of the RFL 'for years' this will be his 2nd full season in charge. Weird huh.
Lets not forget it was the SL clubs who voted this through including Leeds
Except they didnt did they.
The SL clubs voted on reducing the size of the league to allow the new structure and only then after Nigel Wood said the new structure would be put in place regardless as the SL clubs only controlled the number of clubs in the league not how they got there,
and also only after walking out of the first meeting so that there wasnt sufficient quorum and publicly making their feelings known,
and only after they were bribed with free money
and actually only 12 voted as Bradford werent given a vote, and last minute politicking convinced Les Catalans to abstain.
and actually despite being announced as unanimous it is public knowledge only 7 voted in favour (including Wakefield who were represented by Kath Hetherington who was 'recommended' as a consultant to them by the RFL) and 5 against.
Yeah, lets not forget just how in favour the SL clubs were.
