What a bloody FARCE!!!!.... How the hell is this a fair playing field, travelling all the way to St.Helens to play a "home" game at their place. In the situation that we are all in due to the COVID restrictions, any sport should scrap any relegation due to the fact that this is NOT a balanced and even competition, it's just bonkers.
All teams have an advantage on their own ground, and it scews potential outcomes. Yes, I'm biased, but my team, and others who have reduced or zero proper home games are disadvantaged over the season.
Even if it was the B and W enemy who finished bottom, but played less home games, it would be wrong.
If you have played all teams home and away, like everyone else and finish bottom, so be it, but if the RL decide to relegate the bottom team(whoever it is) who have played less home matches then their competitors, that is wrong, not just wrong, but stupidly wrong. However this is the RL, don't expect anything less.
