Who gets the SL licence ?

I expect a sneaky trip over the channel will be being booked as we read this , the Bulls overseas contingent of players will be having lessons in French by next weekend , that Sammut bloke will be growing his ' tache ' back , Carlos is partial to a large ' mo '

Toulouse please.

+1

Why would we want to go in to SL its e.

+2

Lets get a franchise in Barcelona, Barcelona Broncos! they can take the name of London who will be known as London Lollipops as they're always getting licked.


Ill get me coat.

P&R please

the rest will take care of itself.

could be feasable !

TO13 play out their LER fixtures with the present squad and buy a new squad for next SL season and playing their fixtures at either/both Colomiers or Stade Toulousain until the ground renovations are completed for 2014

bet Carlos' tache is twitching.....

Fax, Toulouse are gash. They were crap in the championship.

Halifax for me. It's just over the Pennines for the Red Rose lot, it's within 5 minutes of the town centre and railway station, and it's an an atmospheric little ground. Why would I and the majority of supporters want to spend 100's of £'s schlepping over to frogland for a game of Rugby League ? One French club is more than enough for the punters that want to sample the "culture" of spending a fiver on a pint of gassy lager in a country that merely tolerates our presence in order to fleece us.

Halifax for me, though I'd prefer Fev (suspect their ground doesn't meet the "requirements" yet though).

Fev are upgrading their ground - plans look pretty decent too.

Fax, Leigh or Fev

Looking at it through the RFL's eyes, Toulouse were a roaring success in the championships so it has to be them!

Fax or Fev for me, why would we want to develop the game in France and under develop the game in England.

maybe because Toulouse has more investment potential than the rest ?

probably a minor detail though...

Shouldn,t the investment potential objective to have a Superleague in France, rather than having a superleague with say 3 french teams reducing the finances of English clubs and reducing the no of English players in the comp.

No reason why English players can't play for a French club.

So we could be having our best english players playing in Oz and some others playing in France. That might increase the attendances in the Championship Leagues.

What are you on about?

french SL isn't sustainable

two french SL teams with the LER as feeder clubs would work tho'

Fev havent ' qualified ' to apply for this licence period, neither have Leigh , it is a 2 horse race, Fax or Toulouse

Halifax might find it a bit easier to get ready with a shorter lead in time. Toulouse would probably need a year to ready themselves

Rule books been torn up Starbug, or have you been asleep the last few weeks

If they put it to Fax fans to vote, I'd bet we'd be staying put

Never. We'd get an A licence and take the league by storm!

I'd rather stay put than keep it warm for some other experiment/pet club
