Sorted.
If Sarries come down and Falcons go up then Leeds must also be relegated. This would mean the top side in League 1, currently Richmond, must also be promoted.
The rules cannot be unevenly distributed.

Which also means Rotherham must go down - unless whatever they are called this week fold.
Tough on them as they had a chance to get ahead of Moseley.
Hull Ionians and Caterbury were already mathematically down.

Also tough on Rosslyn Park as they had a slim chance to catch Richmond - and beat them twice.

And so on.

Really? Letting Leeds/YC remain in the championship didn't work for 99% of rugby supporters at the beginning of the season, the fact they have been beaten every game this season hasn't changed those views.

Obviously not clear.

Relegation only for sarries. 

All other divisions promote 1 team. 

Championship has 1 extra team for 20/21

PS, cse maths grade 2. Left before O levels for the real world. Wink

I am not sure Leeds want another season in the Championship. I know Blues were concerned that they may not even make the final game of the season!

If 3 Clubs are relegated from Div 1, and the Winners of Div 2N and Div 2S are promoted,  then how would the 3rd Club to be promoted be decided.
As there is not to be a Play-Off game who would go up.  However its decided, the Club not promoted would, and rightly so, have a major grievance.  However you look at the two Clubs playing stats for this season, NO ONE can definitely say who would have Won had the game been played.


Purely because I'm a Titans supporter, the only fair decision is 2 down and 2 up.
I wish we could have played our last 5 games. We had 3H and 2A to play, and after a run of results where we picked up points in every game, we narrowed the gap between Us and Moseley from 13pts to 4pts.
As I said above, NO ONE can say how our unplayed games would have finished, but I'm confident that we could have stayed up.

Having said all the above, the Titans will obviously accept whatever decision the RFU makes and look forward to next season,  whenever that may commence.

I'm sure Leeds will be happy to exist next season in any shape or form.

Anybody else as bored ?
Well almost right  !!!
