I'm pretty sure an airport was one of the key criteria for a superleague franchise. Poor hunslet insisted they could land planes in middleton but the RFL were sceptical. Mind you they believed wakey when they promised to build an international airport on heath common.

Granted, it will be a little less exciting not having Marwan Koukash on the radio and television, and in the newspapers every week. But since his ambition is to migrate to Australia with his family, he will have his time cut out just keeping the Gold Coast Titans afloat. He won't have time to maintain the Salford disaster.
Meanwhile Super League will have clubs each with a decent sized fan base (only Huddersfield and London marginal in this regard), a good stadium (only Bradford marginal in this regard), and the beginnings of a geographic spread.
Sun starved English fans will then have the choice of two southern French clubs to visit each year.
