|  York = Could make a go of it, Proven Quality coach, decent fan base to start improving from, ground mediocre but just about meets standards with very little improvements needed. "Possible new 6000 capacity ground with York City with potential to expand to 9000 to be started in 2012" Vibrant youth set up and thriving amauture scene in local area. Potential for 2000+ crowds in Championship.
Oldham = Great existing squad wouldn't need too many new signings to be competitive in the Championship, Great Proven coach. Fair fanbase to improve from. Ground not fit for purpose in any way shape or form. Reasonable local amauture scene. No idea what youth set up they have. Could make ago of it but not at the Whitebank Stadium.

That would be a shame mate. I thought the ground held about 1,200, which you would imagine would be more than adequate?
Anybody know what the average championship attendance is over the whole division?

| We at Oldham are very aware of the ground situation and have measures in place. Terracing and more seats will apparently go in over the break. Rumours about our ground surface about every 40 mins at the moment tho.
Our reserves finished 5th in the league behind Whitehaven, Featherstone, Leigh and Widnes.
Oldham-always the bridesmaids!
This year may be our year, but I know there's definately a less desperate air this year after the year we've just had!

| An exert from an Article last week reference Oldham and Blackpool's grounds. And i think it's a shame if for example Oldham did win that they were not allowed into the Championship just on there ground alone. (And York is my home town too)
Oldham, who beat York in last week’s Championship One qualifying semi-final, and Blackpool, whom the Knights meet on Sunday for the right to face the Roughyeds in the Grand Final, have both been warned their grounds do not come up to scratch for the higher tier.
They have been given a list of improvements by the Rugby Football League which, if not met at some point before the 2011 season, would mean they have to find a new home should they win the play-offs or stay in Championship One.
This could open the door for the Knights – the only other team still in the running – to be offered the second promotion place after champions Hunslet, even if they do not win the Grand Final.
More likely, the second-bottom team in the Championship, Whitehaven, could be spared relegation.

Hasn't it been said that the costing of the seating is too expensive?

| Quote Catalancs="Catalancs"Are both teams capable of making a go of it in the Championship?'"
The step up to the Championship is a big one.
From what I saw in the Keighley vs York NRC Quarter Final this season. They'd need to improve significantly to have any chance of staying up.
We beat them easily that day and we weren't good enough to stay in the Championship.
