[QUOTE="Saints1, post: 615082, member: 12575"] I get what you're saying but I think the opposite. The sport is on its backside in the places where it is usually thriving. Too much emphasis has been placed on failed expansions such as London (who have failed dismally) and Crusaders (who no longer exist) and the traditional teams have been forgotten. Bradford Bulls, 4 time Super League winners and 3 times world club champions are on the verge of going bust. Salford nearly did last year until they won the lottery and got bought by a rich fool. Wakefield had to sell some of their players just a few months ago. Too many dissatisfied fans, and I include myself in that. Taking away promotion and relegation was the worst thing they could have done. It is at the core of English sport and rugby league has suffered for it. [/QUOTE]
