I am interested to see how the season starts. The season launch, the promotion, the sponsorship deals that we see most years - this will be an early indicator of whether things may change.

Its disgraceful that the Tories pandered to the DUP in the first place and ceased to be a neutral broker in Northern Ireland, a large contributory factor to the current impasse there. They are now getting their comeuppance.

Thanks for the update Kevin. Be good to keep Danny with us and not at Eagles lol.

New York RL - The Full 80 Minutes
TMF replied to The Daddy's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Kman, do you actually know how the semi-professionals manage to work full time, train in mid week and play at the weekend? Obviously not. Most clubs don't have the advantage TWP have. The same clubs asked for this change? Facts please. If you're correct I will apologise. -
Then why hold back so much on this forum?

Leaving on Saturday night means they can fly straight to Manchester rather than Glasgow which is more convenient for PT players apparently

Pah, wouldn't work in marketing if they begged me to! I'm the one who gives marketing a hard time

Exactly...so you try to accommodate them and their concerns and guess what?....you are the bad guy again!

Hayne to Super League?

I think someone charged with sexual assault is less likely to be welcomed than someone with a drug ban or someone p***ing in their own mouth ect -
Danny is concentrating recovering from his knee injury then will consider his position. His rehab will be at the Club.

The all-new-ish Brexit Thread
ckn replied to John Drake's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other Sports
Come on... debate the subject, not each other. It's getting tiring reading pantomime villain stuff. There's plenty of scope for grumbling at the lead morons on either side of the debate without grumbling at each other. -

Are theses the same clubs that asked for this change since many of their players were having trouble getting a day off work for the trip? Be careful what you ask for; you just might get it! So Toronto makes the requested changes and now is wrong again?....sounds like damned if you do and damned if you don't scenario. The clubs (and many posters on here) asked for the change. You can't have your cake and eat it too....especially when its on anothers dime....be a little more appreciative. -
So this only applies to Super League,and the 2 things Mr Elstone has been instrumental in changing,for the benefit of Super League clubs,are - 1) Magic Weekend moving to Liverpool 2) Golden Point extra time in games which end with both sides drawing. The other code must be quaking....Hull FC fans are happy,though.Oh! They're not.Never mind,eh.

The all-new-ish Brexit Thread
Damien replied to John Drake's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other Sports
Are you the only one that spoke to people about Brexit, read articles or watched debates? You seem to be under the impression that everything you say on the subject is gospel and no one else can have differing views. I never said campaigning had no effect but for some reason remainers on here seem to think it only had an effect one way to suit their argument, strange that. There are two sides and both were guilty, someone like yourself who watched debates and read articles should surely realise that. -
A lot of the support in the area for Burnley FC goes back to the early 60s when they won the league, both Braford soccer clubs were in the fourth division and Leeds Utd were struggling at the bottom of the second division so anyone wanting to see top class soccer in the area went along to Turf Moor, where crowds of 40 to 50,000 were regular occurrences. Plenty of kids at school with me in the sixties had Burnley kit in games lessons and the local coach company, Andertons, use to run a bus to all the home games into the early seventies, I went on it with mates a few times too. As people have said out to the north of Keighley: Sutton, Cross Hills, Skipton and the Dales there's still a level of support too that the Cougars tried to tap into in their heyday. I said a few months back that there was a couple of clubs who wouldn't finish next season in Div one, the two clubs in question look like proving me wrong, they ain't even gonna start it! Anymore for the quickstep to oblivion?

TMF replied to The Daddy's topic in The General Rugby League Forum
Hi Oliver, I don't think it's conspiracy, with the money your owner put into the club, I would have expected, and I can see why, to be in SL by now. I actually expect you to reach your goal by the end of next season and good luck to you. But it does seem you are trying a bit too hard to achieve that. A lot of clubs will not like that proposal. If you don't understand why, then you have a lot to learn about the game over here. I think BN does know the advantages. -

They haven't put money in ANY bank account...they have posted a note...that is all. if its a fully funded note there will be 5 million actually in an account which won't be touched until the note is removed from the file....is this the case in this instance? -
It would run with eight teams and potentially (or most sensibly) everyone playing each other at home twice and away from home twice, making up a twenty-eight game season. That doesn’t actually give a solution to the problem of the viability of the competition but it’s a short term fix.

The all-new-ish Brexit Thread
Maximus Decimus replied to John Drake's topic in Any Other Business / Any Other Sports
Yeh I made all of those opinions up. They certainly didn't come from actual conversations I had with people who voted Brexit or the countless articles and debates I watched. You seem to be making the rather bizarre claim that campaigning had next to no effect; that the dismissing of experts by demagogues and rousing speeches about Britain's independence did nothing to affect the way people voted. -
Looking better,with more signings to be announced this week. Nice feelgood factor - but then most supporters of clubs are optimistic before the season commences. I do detect a totally different mindset.

Do you think believing climate change is real and thinking it doesn't exist are both valid opinions worthy of the same amount of respect? -

The business plan was Super League in Five Years. 2019 is Year Three. Good conspiracy theory though. -
Spoken like a marketeer 😃
