New Liverpool club making progress

Plans for a new team based in Liverpool are still ticking along, despite it falling off the radar in recent months.

A big launch had been planned ahead of the Magic Weekend at Anfield, but it never happened. Politics are believed to be holding up progress, with the uncertainty over the structure of the game beyond 2021 meaning the RFL are reluctant to accept new applications. Figures behind a Manchester team last year were told their only hope of entry was to purchase an existing teams’ licence. Either way, the Liverpool project is far from dead.

Encouraging news. Really wish the people behind the Swinton lions would see sense and move the team across from sale to Manchester proper. RL needs a presence in both these huge northern powerhouse cities.
