Quote ="wakeytrin"I have supported Wakefield Trinity since the age of 9 and will continue to do so whatever league we are in. If we are in the lower league I will have no interest in SL at all. The reason being there are at least 3 teams with less to offer than ourselves, one being bank rolled by the RFL and who are not paying players! Richard Lewis and Nigel Wood have made our game a laughing stock by persisting with expansionism, even though it is not working at Crusaders or Quins. We are a sport that manipulates decisions to get the answer that it wants. I have never felt as dispondent as I do now, not because we might be in a lower league, but because of how the decision will be made.
I have supported WT in lower leagues before and will do again. if we go down that will be twice we have been demoted without finishing bottom. How can that be fair.
WAKEFIELD TIL I DIE.'"
There's several clubs which have been stranded in the lower leagues who didn't finish in the relegation spot. It's nothing new. The fans of those clubs also share your disillusionment as to the RFL's reasoning behind it all and have done for many years. If the Wildcats do go down then they are simply the latest victim of this crazy system. Again it's nothing new.
But the Championship is a great competition and deserves far more credence than it currently gets. Did you see today's NR Final? Classic rugby League. Was it more entertaining than the weekend's televised SL games or not?
