Why have they let you come up? : Tue Sep 01, 2009 11:22 am  

Widnes would have won a lot more games, played alot better and wouldn't of had 6 people with their visa's rejected, and a much better ground and better facilities.

sort it out crusaders.

Ray, widnes have indeed won more games. But this is due to playing against easier opposition.

IN THE YEAR WE EARNED our pormotion, we won more matches than Widnes and we had a far, far better franchise application.

Therefore we were promoted.

Why is that a problem for you?

Its amazing Warrington win the CC and then some fans need to start passing comment on everyone.

Almost every team that has come in to super league has stuggled at some point in there first year. Atleast the celtic has got more points on the board this year then hudderfield with 4 pts and Halifax with 2pts (before the cap issue) in years gone by.

Good luck celtic and I will be cheering you on against castleford thats for sure!

You did NOT win your place in SL. You lost the Grand Final !!!
You were given your place in SL despite shoddy facilities because of your geographical location as London were in 95 at the expense of Keighley who earned the right to play in SL !

That about sums that up. Great comment and true.

You said it 'added to SL' not promoted !
I forsee a future not too far away where SL is populated by plastic teams with the 'right' postcode and as more and more traditional clubs are sacrificed in the name of the great god expansionism the Championship will be a far better competion than the manufactured SL.
