Surprised we've all missed this over the last couple of days.

For me he wouldn't be remotely interested in this if he hadn't already had some form of assurance from the powers that be that a Cumbrian team if formed would be in SL and leads me to think that the reformatting of the league is actually going to see an increase in numbers.
With Leigh looking likely to struggle you'd think that say we went to 14 teams next year then Cumbria and if indeed Leigh do miss out they will get a reprieve and join the winner of the Middle 8's.
The issue with that would come if say a SL team lost out in the Million pound game and a team got fast tracked into the top flight.
