I'm (and not for the first time on here) asking questions, and coming up with few answers, but............
What's gonna happen? One league or two?
We don't even know yet how many teams there'll be in either SL, and / or below!
Are London heading for the promised land? Who'll (if any) go the opposite way?
Vegas is already locked in, so even though they're currently the basement boys, I can't see Bradfraud going down.
Fifteen dining at the top table? If so, who doesn't play at Magic?
Will Fev be coming back?.
The format in the Championship this season has been a farce! We missed out on the 'Yeds and / or you, thus denying us some much needed dosh. How is it fair when everyone doesn't play everyone?
Let's say, next term, we lose the Broncos, but Fev return, meaning there'll again be twenty of us, so how's this for a suggestion, that I've mentioned previously?
Play each other once, making nineteen games. Yeah, I know there's a prob straight away there, coz it'd mean (say) you having ten home games, and (say again) us only nine, but.................
That could (in part) be compensated with a return to Blackpool over the August Bank Holiday, where in the main, derbies like Worky v 'Haven would be staged.
Play-offs? Ten is too many for me, so maybe top four, or maybe top six, with the final as a curtain-raiser at OT.
There'd also be the Challenge Cup, and (poss but unlikely in my opinion) the 1895.
I openly admit, that what I've mooted is faaaaaaaar from perfect, so I'll throw it open to you for your views / ideas / suggestions /criticisms, if I may please!
The board is yours mes amis!
Spelly.
Exactly what I said before the season started !
a season later we are all in the dark - structure, number of fixtures, any cup competition, salary cap dispensations, the rfl really need shagging with a rag mans trumpet
I'm sure they'll sort it out between 10:15 and 10:19 on the 1st Feb 2027.
I wouldn't expect anything from the RFL big wigs until they return from their 'jolly' for the World Cup in Aus.
For me, I'd go 2 leagues of 10, (18 games). A Summer Bash Rd (gate receipts split for foundation projects) with fixtures decided the week before so as to have 1st v 2nd, 3rd v 4th etc (3 games Sat, 4 on Sun, 3 on BH Monday). Top 5 in the play-offs, Final at OT before the SL GF
Challenge Cup (pointless) & 1895 play early in the season, and be out of the way by May.

All will be officially revealed on the 21st Sept, but it looks like everybody already knows
