    It's the same mistakes over and over and over, not just by the club but by the RFL.

    They are set for a 9th place finish, they are struggling to pull in over 2.5k fans and the signs are next years funding is already half spent.

    Batley put 40 points on them today and it's not even a surprise.

    Unless someone with some money takes over they will be in serious risk of relegation next season.

    maybe they are 9th this year as they have started reducing their overheads due to the knowledge that the ‘loan’ payments are staring next season

    I also noticed that season tickets were over £200 this season, for standing on an open terrace. £250 if you fancied sitting down.

    For that season ticket they have managed a grand total of 4 wins, two of those being against the two teams who were relegated weeks ago who have a grand total of 4 wins all season, and seeing as they play each other twice that's half of those 4 wins explained.

    It's been dross at City in recent years but it looks another level of Dross up there.

    Cougars are moving forward building new stand and ground improvement also team building and with new signings for next season. IMG are proposing a grading system category A,B or C the grading to be monitored on a yearly basis . Changes to the top tier could be controversial they have targeted London as a high priority . Rugby League have attempted changes previously without success anyway I’ll be down at Cougar Park next season supporting my local team .
    IMG will be scrapping Relegation and promotion also magic weekend any money made by RL will be going into the bloody Yankees pockets .

    from my reading top league will be made up of some A and some B, second tier some B and some C with bottom tier mostly C but could have some B in it as there will be promotion between the bottom two. So just being in Championship doesn’t guarantee a B as the club could be badly run, constantly going bust and having to beg for survival numerous times so those points would go against it eg Bulls

    Morning Storck just been on the Cornwall RLFC website News Statement: Reimagining Rugby League rather lengthy statement more clarity .We can only see what changes are made to the game. Let’s not forger Cornwall are run by a Canadian Consortium led by Eric Perez maybe third time lucky for him. Meanwhile next season some good away trips for me not far to travel Halifax,Batley,Dewsbury,York and Bradford Mrs Rocket will want to go to York .

    To be fair they have only played them a handful of times, with Bradford usually dining on the top table.

    However Keighley probably have more finance than Bulls these days.
