Quote ="Walshovski"Finding a way to bring back to life clubs with proud traditons and a consistent record of producing players should be one of the Rugby Football League's top priorities but sadly at present it isn't.
The only way for our sport to truly grow is by increasing the pool of players we have playing the game and the quality of the teams within our leagues and while it is absolutely right the governing body are attempting to spread the game further afield we should not be neglecting areas such as Oldham.
I hate when people talk of reducing SL to 12 or 10 teams as you are effectively condemning more teams to the dustbin of the lower leagues.'"
Spot on Walshovski. The Cahmpionship 1 is now little better the North West Counties in fact you could argue the NWC is stronger.
