At the moment, Wakefield, Castleford& even St Helens, don't have a divine right to be in Super League on current criteria, as their grounds are not up to standard. If Toulouse do acieve the goal of Super League,they have the
backing from the City, for a new ground, and the opportunity to ground share with Toulouse Rugby Union, which has a 30,000 capacity. Time and results will judge them, I would think. Surely it's the goal of every team to better themselves and play at the highest levels?
Yes it is , unfortunatley some clubs are denied that goal because of thier location
Dont get me wrong I have no gripe with Toulouse themselves , but What I dont like is money from our competition [ Championships ] being used to help prepare a club/team for entry into SL when many of the clubs in the championship are struggling financially
That money could be put to better use than travel/accomodation costs
