I've been watching Sky Sports News and have noticed over the last few days that although our league season has finished they haven't stated on the table that anyone (including Doncaster) has been relegated.

In Championship 1 it states that Dewsbury are Champions but nothing with regards to relegation. Is this just a mistake or are they waiting for the RFL to confirm what is actually happening?

Shouldn't this be in the clutching at straws thread

I note that we are still in the Championship as far as this site is concerned (as are Doncaster). When we were relegated from Super League we had been run out of town by now.

The only thing that might change anything is if someone has/is applying to join Championship 1. If they are its being kept a very big secret. Even that might not change anything though

I admit it's a long shot but it just seemed strange as Sky are usually on the ball with these things.

I hope whoever is trying to come up does'nt meet the standard and Leigh stay up!

Well if/when you get moved out this forum section I hope you'll all still come talk to us

(Mind you if you don't I think you'll only have Keighley to keep you company)

Perhaps the reason this board hasn't been moved yet, is because the season is still running?

Heres hoping

Straws.....clutching at.

maybe the rfl will make a 12 team championship div with 2 teams comin up but only 1 team down graspin at straws but owt can happen

They are? They're usually bobbins at anything other than Premier League football.

Are Sky actually bothered with the detail? All the are surely concerned with is sale of sky dishes!

Well the money they shell out for the contracts I'd imagine they would. Remember rugby league is only an after thought by comparison.

Viewing figures, merchandise, etc, etc. To be fair they usually have all the tables etc up to date although I did notice a few weeks ago the table was wrong after we'd won against Toulouse at home.

Leigh relegated?


I will put 5p on NO!!

Every leyther must accept the fact that we are relagated, until we are told otherwse by the RFL.

it does'nt matter what division we will be playing in the die hard fans will still be there

We've been relegated ?

and if we start winning well and playing some nice rugby a few of the stay away fans might return.....


....unless they've not already bought their saints, wire or wigan shirts

Wire now they have won something isn't it? aready seen the shirts and car flags out and about.

Keeping Leigh in the championship when they where relegated as per the rules of the competition is wrong.
Leigh should be relegated as per the rules of the competition but the rules should be changed at the end of the season for next seasons competition.

when a team finishing 9th in the Championship can be relegated and a team finishing 7th in Championship League 1 can be promoted the rugby league have got promotion and relegation wrong but that should have been sorted out before the season started.

Aint life a bitch

You say the rules should stand this year but changed next year ,this would'nt by any chance be because you might be in the bottom 3 next year would it

What will it take for some of you to realise that we have been relegated.
Next seasons fixtures.......?
The oppostion being Swinton....?

When Alan Rowley starts ranting its not fare, then I will accept we are down.
