They have quite obviously done things. Some pretty f@cking major and obvious things. some quite fundamental things that you really shouldnt need someone to point out to you. You may not agree with what they have done since 2008 but considering that the competition has had two different broadcasters, numerous different sponsors, the introduction of new competition, changes in the size of the league, the removal of P+R to SL, the introduction and removal of french sides, the introduction of DR, the inclusion of new clubs from new areas etc etc its almost a new level of idiocy for you to argue they havent done anything.

. At last , an answer , THE answer , yes they have done ALL these things , and guess what not one of them has helped to make the Championships any bloody better , not ONE single thing that has been done has improved the Championships or made them more " Vibrant and worth winning " , it has taken a while , but we got there in the end

So back to the OP , in my opinion the RFL are more interested in winning worthless competitions than improving and building the sport they are supposed to be running

The Championships ≠ the sport of RL. The sooner you realize this, the better.

Sorry you've lost me

Well that seems a long and pointless conversation, you asked the same question numerous times just so I could tell you things we all already knew (even including a period of time where you pretended you didnt know them) and you could tell me that you didnt agree with them, even though we all already knew this and you had said so on this thread.

BTW, that answer is the same answer i have given you numerous times, was this really honestly just an effort to get a list of things we were all already aware of?

Yep , a list of failed inititatives , none of them has achieved anything , other than to further damage the Championships as " Vibrant and worth winning "

As I asked earlier , what objective criteria do you base your opinion that the Championships are MORE Vibrant and worth winning ? , because no bugger else is willing to comment on it

failed in your opinion. We already know this. You could have saved a lot of time for everyone if you just said that.

You do realise you didnt ask that question, I asked you what objective criteria you had used to decide the championships werent more vibrant or worth winning. Vibrancy and worth are subjective terms (assuming by worth we dont mean financial and by vibrancy we arent talking about vibration or resonance) so there quite obviously isnt a objective measure of it.

You wouldn't know either way , because you dont attend Championship games or speak to Championship club fans

Anyway Not to bothered with the argument , I got my answer

Cheers

You shouldnt confuse people ignoring your asinine irrelevencies with them avoiding answering a question.

You are a very strange and bitter old man.

Smokey, when you're next hoovering Nigel's office (BTW, does he pay you, or is just a labour of love?), could you smuggle out his latest "strategic plan" for the Championship? - it might give some comfort to Starbug. Thanks.

Why would anyone need to smuggle it out. Anybody with access to a computer, the internet and a printer can have a copy

Excellent. A great strategy in place then, and RFL expertise in place to deliver on it. The championship should go from strength to strength, just like it has over the last few years. What were we all worrying about?

You know what , you are probably right

Still doesn't make Mr Wood any better at running RL though , completely clueless
