Quote ="northernbloke"Having a team in london and credibility on a marketing front is an old arguement that has been used a lot, not sure its valid to be honest. We had the opportunity on that front when we had the big names playing for us what did it achieve then?
2019 season yep reasonably competative but still finished bottom.
Other clubs are much better set up in regards stadiums, eg widnes leigh york, Toulouse.
I think the finances of any club will be the main focus, last thing they need is another club going in, buying a squad, which tbh any club would have to do, and then them struggling.
Squad, is an issue but that would go back to how the finances look if it came to this sort of call
Currently i think london would be out of the frame on a number of fronts, stadium not ideal for SL, how long DH can keep us going. Very small fan base. Location currently does not help.
I fear if it came to it Toulouse, leigh, York would be way ahead'"
If we dont deserve to be in SL, we dont deserve to be in SL so no point getting over excited.
All being well, Toronto will remain in SL, and if David and the club are up for it, we can slug is out for SL 2022 on the field.
