Blackpool Bash this weekend, all 6 games will be televised LIVE!
No I meant in the UK, on Sky.in Australia?
One of the four SL clubs would have to go into total meltddown in the next few weeks for that to happen, it could happen at Salford if the good Doctor spits his dummy and goes, Leeds are finding some form with a lot of players back from long term injuries Hudderfield and Hull KR should be just too strong.Anyone think London may have a chance of promotion this year? They've had a decent season and now got Jamie Soward on board too.
A lot more to this than it seems, it's a very strange situation involving the owner Guildford who appears to be an absolute poisonous individual to the extent that a lot of York's fans seem to be happy about the possibility of the club folding as it means a new club may be formed without the stigma of this guy attached to it. Unthinkable really that they would be allowed to fold mid-season as it absolutely f**ks up the Super 8's structure in that division.York about to fold are they? I know they've been on thin ice for a few years but it looks like this might finally be it for them. Sad day for Rugby League.

If York fold I imagine they would probably be replaced next year by a new fan-owned club with the same name and adopting the same history. I also imagine they would probably be able to play at the stadium freely as the current owner is apparently the one who has repeatedly scuppered negotiations with the council and soccer team and led to them playing at a local amateur club for most of last year. The owner has also reportedly banned a bunch of long-standing investors and former directors who disagreed with him from attending matches this season, and attendances have pretty much halved because of his behaviour. The guy really does seem like a nasty piece of work, he should've been thrown out of the sport last year IMO for an incident where he abused some of the club's disabled fans on Facebook. If he's finally gone that's definitely good news, the bigger issue for me is how and why they would be unable to complete the season, that should surely be the priority even if it means the RFL stepping in to pay the wages and playing the remaining home matches at different locations.That's terrible!! Yes I remember reading about him a while back, though don't know many details about the whole thing.
Any chance of York Acorn being able to step up in a few years? (if the Knights do indeed fold for good)

Sounds like they are looking to proceed without the current owner.
I was about to ask the same. Can't find a thing and have been looking for a while on the official SL site. Seems only the Bottom 8 fixtures are out so far. Is there still another round of the regular season left or something?Can't find results/tables for League 1 Super8s on the official site... am I missing something or have they just failed to update it
