The Official Down to the Wire Franchise Thread : Tue Jul 15, 2008 7:58 am
This time next week, bottoms will be twitching up and down Rugby League land as the RFL announces who has been successful in securing a Super League licence for 2009-2011. Looking at other teams boards, and, in particular, those who are close but not certain to either getting one or not, paranoia is setting in as the date moves closer.
Assuming the incumbents get in:
Wire - Saints - Wigan - Leeds - Bradford - Catalan - Huddersfield - Quins - Hull FC - Hull KR - Wakefield - Castleford
Who do you reckon will get the other spots? Surely 2 from 3:
Salford - widnes - Celtic
I'd go for Salford and widnes. Just. But I could be swayed. I'd be interested to hear from some of our more famous forumistas
Wire 71 - will his egalitarian tendencies affect his judgment?
WOTT - is it all just bandwagon jumping?
Sally - can he give a straight answer or do we have to believe the opposite of what he posts?
Cockney - will his 30k a year IT mean he plumps for the rich french team?
St Maca - is he gay?*
What do people reckon?
*probably. And fair play to him for that.
