  • Primary sponsor: Burnham, Andy
  • Sponsors:

    That this House congratulates Leigh, Widnes, Rochdale, Oldham, Featherstone Rovers, Dewsbury, Hull Kingston Rovers and Keighley Rugby League clubs on reaching the play-offs of the Northern Ford Premiership; notes that the line-up includes clubs with a proud tradition and illustrious history in the Rugby Football League; believes that all sports need to hold out the hope of promotion to competitiors if they are to maintain their public appeal in the long-term; and calls on the Super League to accept the NFP league champions and NFP play-off winners into the Super League as a step towards establishing a proper system of promotion and relegation between the two leagues.
