dont know what kind of grudge you have against fax really, we have done nothing to you.,

we are just fighting back against a totally biased RFL, we have to defend ourselves dont we.

why should we be forced to stay in the championship for years to come whilst the RFL work on making the sport even more of a laughing stock than it already is. Franchise will never work.

have fun finishing outside the play offs in super league for the next 3 year when yuo get in though wont you

Re: Attendance Criteria : Mon Aug 16, 2010 12:40 am  

Well, i don't have a grudge against fax at all, please state where i have mentioned this?

I agree that the RFL have pretty much ruined the game for clubs outside the super league, After all their is a decline in the attendances/competition and i have enjoyed the rugby coming from this league..

As for you being forced in to stay in the championship.. i don't agree with it, Don't think anyone likes the franchising system really but it is how the RFL are doing it at the min.. It will soon be returned but maybe it will have damaged the game heavily. I would love for widnes / fax / leigh to all be promoted to the super league. Throughout the years i have enjoyed travelling to both stadiums and love the banter our fans have..

As for super league, Well only time can tell.. I hope we get in, But we are not in yet.. So who knows?

you seemed to take joy in the fact we may be punished for stating false attendances, we know there making rules up as they go along, the false attendance if thats what it was was just to see what they would do next to rule us out, now we have got the required average attendnace by hook or by crook.

this is how we are being forced to stay in the championship.

this franchise if 1 team goes up then that team will be - Widnes

next franchise- Toulouse will be promoted- that will happen whether we get 11,000 average and win the grand final in the next 3 years.

the next franchise after that assuming it is still going by then- there might be a scottish club by then you never know or a spanish team, if not then it will be. South Wales Scorpians or a Cumbrain team.

the franchsie system wont still be going by this point but the one after that if its still here, wont be fax either.

if thats not being forced to stay in a division then i dont know what is

Re: Attendance Criteria : Mon Aug 16, 2010 1:03 am  

Well, i do agree.. But when you say a scottish / spanish team / welsh again.. Can the RFL afford to keep funding these expansion teams? I dont think so,

With fans from the championship declining, They especially can't really keep funding..

Maybe a Cumbrian team will get promoted soon.. But cas / wakey / salford / quins / catalans are all holding on by a thread.. Who knows what will happen in another 3 years time? I know for a fact i would be supporting fax's bid (not that will mean anything), and again atleast they are trying to progress with licensing unlike cas / wakey / salford who are now panicing about their "plans for stadiums".... again..

well i dont think they can but you know they will do everything they can to help the expantion teams out.

Cas and Wakey are most at risk i think, Salford might just survive this time because of there location.

Quins, Catalans, Crusaders will never be kicked out of super league, the only way they will ever leave is if they go bust
