Considering where we finished we wouldn’t be able to compete in 5 and also needing to go through a rebuild.
As per the new system it says we are D6. But will clarify with the league this week.
Unsure about who goes up though… can’t help you there. all I heard was the teams for possible nominations to go up said no on the basis they “weren’t ready” to make that move up.
That’s not 100% fact though, just what I heard.
But by your own clubs admission you’re the “most financially stable D6 club” you have apparently good infrastructure, you are “extremely ambitious”, you openly want to discuss player incentives and you’ve made no secret of a desire to “climb back up the grades”.. add in a comment about not giving up all your players to a rival club as rumoured.
Doesn’t sound like a rebuild to me, sounds like you want to play D6 to win a cheap flag so you can strut around like a peacock.
Correct. Why would you ever ask to go down? And if given an opportunity, why would you not go up? You might have a tough season but who knows what will happen, especially this year. Of all seasons for strange results to happen, this is going to be it
I remember the few years back when Kenilworth lost to lockleys in the last round. As a result were to be relegated to D6, players were shattered. Volunteers and people at the club were all shattered. It was a horrible feeling.
Only survived due to Rosewater losing points for a suspension I believe.
I'm sure the club would not be in div 4 this coming year had we been relegated to 6 back then.
I would rather hang in there, prove you want to be a stronger club.
