[QUOTE="Alias, post: 798089, member: 72652"] This all sounds a bit like the big boys wanting to keep all the money to me Greed if you like. The championship is underfunded when clubs like Plymouth go bust and clubs like Cornish pirates struggle for every penny something is very wrong. You cannot cut off the grass roots without damaging the grass. The championship is the Premierships life blood Having seen so many players move through the clubs and into the prem over the years its hard to understand why you guys think so little of it. If it was properly funded and clubs allowed to grow im sure the quality of players would improve further. Likewise if there was a fair religation and promotion between the prem and Championship it would improve things further. Two up two down and no ring fencing. If there has to be a playoff let it be between bottom but one in the prem against second from top of the Championship. Guys these are great clubs that are run by some of the best rugby people, coached by many a dedicated ex prem player and supported by so many die hard people. We must not let them bleed to death for the sake of a 2p plaster. [/QUOTE]
