Really the only two points related to my post. It was made pretty clear early on that the existing smaller clubs add little in terms of interest or development, arthur is of the opinion their priorities don't even match that of a competitive competition; and i would be happy for them to merge or change competitions so we have closer to the amount of teams that is appropriate for a development and interest perspective.

You can never be 100% sure something will work but as we have a low interest competition now, it's worth trying what other sports do rather than leaving it as it is and pretending it will pick up. Topic finished i think.
