And no possibility of changing that.

Why can't the smaller clubs develop? As I said earlier St Helens is no bigger a town than most others in SL.

And Lenny and Smokey would be happy bunnies

They are still bitter over all those wins W1g4n posted in the 80/90's

Do you think the Premier League is struggling? Or is it one of the strongest football leagues in Europe? Is it dominated by a small number of clubs and not have a salary cap? Do other clubs think they have a cnace of winnig the Prem? Has it harmed the other clubs attendences or have they been increasing?

I think that is highly likely, even more so than is the case now. What is more, as I previously posted, other clubs would be less able to build in such a fashion as to ever be able to compete, without massive financial input.

How can it be more likely than the 100% as it is now?

Then the onus is on them to attract this input. Who would have thought, money coming into the game is a bad thing...

By being 110%?

Nothing can be 110% likely.

because youre levelling the playing field from the successful down to the failure

So clubs should focus purely on attracting a rich sugar daddy to fund their way to success. Not on improving their business. I think that would be a bad thing.

Can you elaborate on that?

Who said anything about a rich sugar daddy, you are shifting the argument now, you previously referred to financial input. This shoudl be done by growing the businesses and not being complacent as they are likely to become as they know they don't need to try, as the strong clubs will be shackeled anyhow.

Well that is what the RFL are trying to get the lower league clubs to do

So they are just being consistent

I'm sure the Directors of all the other clubs will go out tomorrow morning and do just that then, or at least put 110% effort into it...Next!

Makes a change for them doesn't it?

Is it? I assume you can back this up or is yet enough more of your unsubtantiated anti-RFL guff?

There's no reason that all clubs can't be as competitive as St Helens as most other clubs are based in similar sized towns.

Excuse me sir , would you please vacate the premises , we dont want your ' kind ' here sir thank you

I never thought I'd have these guys defending the RFLs policies.

Because its bloody SPORT you plank

I believe it was a massive financial input. How are these clubs going to achieve that when the product they are selling is stagnating?

And...

Shame you have to resort to insults too. Pathetic really.

Can you provide a ' link ' to the contrary ?
