There is no way you should even be in the running for relegation. The likes of yourselves and KR are what has given many Championship fans hope that a team can go up and hold it's own with the big guns (twice!) with no help from the RFL (unlike Huddersfield, Salford, Crusaders, Quins and Hull who have all been a protected species at some point). You have survived two relegations to bounce back and can only be viewed as an extremely strong RL club.
i have copied the quote below from casforum and i think you will agree that the poster has a point
QuoteOn top of the aforementioned, we are also a success story of franchising. The rfl would look ridiculous denying us a franchise when we are evidence of franchising working. Two crippling relegations plus being hampered financially but inspite of that we are currently sixth best side in the country and solvent. Without franchising we would have been down again after finishing bottom on our return and suffered further loss of support and income etc. Franchising allowed us to accept a lower finish and place emphasis on bringing the kids through not just hurling money at loads of foreign imports to desperately try and stay up.
In all honesty as much as I prefered promotion and relegation, we have benefitted more than others because the frsnchise and it is another reason why the rfl should be proud of what cas have done for them'"
