3 div 1 slots still for sale

[jus]

Three extra slots in Division 1 available!
As three Div1 teams will reinforce the reffing staff at each event and the format calls for always 32 teams to compete, the Millennium Series offers three extra licenses for Division 1 to teams, interested to buy into this elite locked division and to volunteer for reffing.
If your team might be interested, please contact the MS Ref Manager.

So any team with an ego(no pun intended) can buy into the division and can now also earn maximum points at one event because the so called best league in Europe is to tight to pay for refs.

It is pathetic and wrong, I can see the reasoning behind doing that at much smaller events but the so called premier league in Europe with the entry fees they are charging, it's a joke.

They are supposed to be leading us into the future and it looks like the future is up a garden path

[Bngi]

And why arent these spots GIVEN TO THE TEAMS that just placed outside of the newly formed division? THAT MAKES NO SENSE AT ALL!?


Edit:
You cant sell something that doesnt rightfully belong to you Millennium..

Well said

i would say the teams will just have to pay for the transfer and licence fee. if im wrong and they are given away i want one

I think its a good idea what they are doing but you could get a complete **** team just buy the spot because they have the money.
Which isnt good for the sport in the slightest.
As said above it should be given to the tams that are top in the divison below.Since they have worked hard to get there.They deserve it....

Hmmmm..... And all this just 1 month before the first event ?

Let´s see if they manage to get 32 teams playing in div. 1 at the first event !!!!

Agreed though - this shouldn´t just be up for sale to any one, but should be rightfully given/offered to the next 3 teams in line for a spot!

 

[jus]

i suppose it depends on how far down that list you have to go before you find a team in a position to fund the season

 

[fuzzy juzzy]

LOL! I would gladdly have a spot if the cost wasn't so high, but I wouldn't be wanting to marshall. Not going to fly abroad to marshall and if my family was coming to Basildon to watch I wouldn't wana be marshalling there either.
