Not sure how a Gateshead player is qualified to talk about Championship One really.

Hendo has plenty of experience in the NL.

He spent time with Castleford, and also I think previous to that Barrow

<whispers> Championsip 1 is the old NL2 - which Hendo never played in with Cas and which doesn't feature Gateshead this year


Top confusing name from the RFL/Co-op there

Well confusing, I can quite happily accept we play in the Championship, but when people say Hunslet, Blackpool, Dewsbury ect play in the Championship 1 it just doesnt sound right.

Championship 1 & Championship 2 would have been far better and more appropriate names.

Could argue all day about the names really, at least when they say fans were consulted about the name changes they are telling the truth for once, though I still think the names are confusing.
