It would make me smile but it isn't happening. The next couple of years look as if nobody will be getting promoted - there will need to be some movement between SL and championship to keep non-SL clubs and supporters on board with the new IMG way of doing things or too many people will feel cut adrift and leave the sport (many are in that place already).
Maybe I'm putting two and two together, but some of the noises being made this week from Toulouse sounds like it could he SL or nothing. They've reduced the investment in the playing squad since SL, not sure they'd carry on if they're consigned to the championship again.
We seem to be splashing the cash but you have to wonder how long this approach will continue. We need to see an expansion of the comp to get in with the ground being as it is. Not sure how we can improve IMG scores otherwise apart from by finishing top or substantially increasing attendances (difficult in the league we're in).
what a season ... a year of coulda shoulda wouda ... dropped so many points this year, toulouse sums up our season. i very exciting championship all round.
looking forward to next year .. stay safe you guys
