In the current economic climate its highly unlikely that any new stadia will be started in the next 2 years.
I still cling to the hope that the RL will have to have a serious rethink on franchising sooner rather than later.
Regarding Salford and CC they were the top 2 teams last season in NL1 so I have no problem with them being in Superleague this season.
The sooner promotion and relegation comes back the better as far as I,m concerned.
Well the fact that promotion and relegation has disappeared for the forseeable future crowds in our division will suffer greatly I would imagine.
Obviously there's mileage in winning the play offs to apply for SL but they've taken all the excitement and anticipation out of both leagues.
