[size=78%]Has there been any word on how the championship view this?[/size]


They may have us, worcester and another relegated team next season, without anyone getting promoted.


Would they just relegate 3 teams to make space for us?
I assume they have the right to refuse us entry to the championship?

The RFU requirements: paper scissors stone, best of three.

Is that the words at the top of the new EA stand?

Reading The Cov Tel's suggestion of  Lee as DoR, and Matt as Head Coach  the idea is very appealing.

Can't imagine that going down well with the 2 additional clubs relegated if they did that!

I can't see it being remotely practical for another club to be relegated from the premiership this season with 2 clubs having already gone pop. Surely just a matter of time before they announce that.

As they're making this up as they go along don't expect any deeply thought through strategy that addresses these issues.

If we start a school of thought on here that a 16 team league is the way forward it will probably be their stated policy within a month. Or we could just pay Baxter a sack of cash to publicly state he thinks we should be allowed back in.

I don't think we should forget the fact that we have deen delivering mediocre uninspiring rugby unde Lee for quite some time now. If the financial disaster hadn't happened I suspect we'd all be arguing about whether he should be sacked.

I want to be able to carry on supporting my club, but I want them to play the way we should play and be a quality side.

Very possible but, even if he's not, I'd imagine he knows what's going on in the background.

Really? We’ve been down that road before. I think by far his best policy is to not verbalise anything.

Which is roughly his point!

If Oxford United do build their new stadium at Kidlington, there's always the Kassam.

Heard rumour not that long ago that Leamington FC were looking to move again, Location and site that would need to be developed to create a decent facility but an option.
