Quote ="Jemmo"Unfortunately, there isn't enough interest in South Yorkshire Rugby League at this moment for either/both/a mixture of the clubs to get a look in.
A few years ago it was Doncaster, now it happens to be Sheffield who is better placed in the league so the noise will be about them.
It's the other issues that one of them needs to sort out to have a genuine SY SL bid'"
Doncaster were never serious SL contenders, other than in the eyes of Dally Messenger and one complete loon who bankrupted your club.
Sheffield are not serious contenders for SL at this moment in time either. In five years, who knows, but I personally doubt it - and I'm Eagles through ad through.
I know the club are doing a lot of things right - along with Widnes and Fev, they have an Academy team in the comp starting next summer, they have a scholarship, they're working on press, PR and marketing etc - and Bramall Lane is a great stadium. Plus, the Eagles finances are in order.
It's a pipe dream at present, but one that the Eagles are working on. Good on 'em. Whether or not they ever get back to SL, they're one of the better run clubs in British pro RL.
