[QUOTE="Crash Hamster, post: 1218956, member: 84693"] Certainly the scheduling could be better, but if the Prem Cup is going to be played between Prem clubs only, make it a straight knockout and play more league games. That makes the league more meaningful and introduces more jeopardy to the Cup. A cup with a large preliminary league stage is exactly the same as a league with an extensive playoff programme. Introduce a point of difference. As to semi-pro teams, I suspect everyone with an ounce of sense realises RU is a minority sport which can't support administrators with £1/2M+ salaries (especially when said administators allow asset-strippers to buy and wreck clubs...)
