It seems the failings that were obvious to some are dawning on others who were seduced by the word promotion.
I've been saying since the system was announced that it isn't promotion and relegation. It's just the illusion of it. As it stands, the only way a championship club can push for a SL place is if they get to the MPG and play against a team that is on the ropes both on and off the field as London and Bradford were last year.
The system as it stands is there to keep the status quo. Unless there's a review of the rules for next year which allows championship clubs to be able to spend a similar amount in terms of salary to those SL clubs in the middle 8's, then they're really no chance.
