This WILL NOT WORK and I fear for the future of any of the current CC1 clubs who are still in this division when the RFL realise this. What we need is more games against the teams we have now and also in the Champoinship. Why not just merge the two leagues we have now? The travelling will be a killer. You might as well watch Moorends or Toll Bar .'"
To be honest the clubs left behind can probably ride out 2013 in CC1 and surely the teams at most risk are those that make it up next season, probably spend to try to survive and don't then drop into CC1 for 2014 with massivly reduced income and probably debts carried over from the previous two seasons striving to make it out of CC1 in the first place and then trying to make a go of it in CC.
