League Table

I see last night Oldham beat Batley 20 - 14 with goal kicks being the difference between the 2 sides, to put things into perspective lets look at last years league table play off positions. 1. York - now in SL 2. Toulouse - now in SL 3. Bradford - now in SL 4. Oldham - Cut back on budget with Geyer joining Huddersfield, Dixon going to Salford and Dean/Ormonroyd now at Bradford. Currently in 3rd place with a game in hand so will go 2nd. 5. Halifax - liquidated, re-formed with the loss of about 8 players and a points deduction. 6. Featherstone - in admin with a £3m debt, denied entry and hoping to re-join in 2027. Then just missing out on the play offs, Widnes in 7th place. Current Widnes league position is 6th place. Thats with the above plus 10 League 1 teams joining the division. We have been overtaken by London, Newcastle, Barrow and Doncaster in addition to Oldham still being ahead of us. London have had massive investment and Newcastle have the link up with York but I would say Barrow and Doncaster are of a similar standard to 2025. My conclusion given the top sides are now in SL (we missed the boat on that one) is that we have gone backwards. We should be in the top 4. Thoughts?
