Not st all surprised - I think they should have moved it to Doncaster when Leeds failed to fund it.

The bigger question is what happens to Leeds?

Slippery slope like Liverpool St Helens I can see unless they do a Richmond/London Scottish and drop out and re-enter at the bottom.

Still no news (in fact a deafening silence) but there have been some board changes logged with Companies House lately  which suggest that the links with the Rhinos might be being reduced. Whether that means a change of venue after all remains to be seen. 
That's easy for you to say.

Based on the fixture list, appears they have reverted to the Leeds Tykes name.

You know the Rhinos are probably just waiting for the excuse to allow their grass to grow in winter unmolested....

Not surprising, Rhinos by far the bigger club - wouldn't be getting enough money from the lesser team to make it worth while.
