  1. All those who slate expansion are basing it on a short term view. Many would say all golds have failed with their crowds under 100. If they can hang around long enough and their schools programme works then they may eventually be a serious team. 15 years or so. I have seen the attitude towards rugby league in Gloucester change in schools already. Yet the flat cap brigade will deem it a failure unless Gloucester ru have changed codes within 2 years. Stop meddling with the structure. Support expansion. Enjoy the sport. Stop bloody moaning
  2. Surely the season ticket will be for the first part of the season and a new season ticket required for the second half as super league prices are higher than champ due to higher profile fixtures? I think this idea is good but also a last throw off the dice if it fails. If it doesn't work I fully expect the next change to be a league of ten that will not have promotion or relegation.
  3. If they continue to perceive injustice maybe they will go back to the French league? With them and London gone many would love it. The games I have seen they do seem to get a raw deal from officials
  4. The only conclusion I can think of is that rfl judged the last one as making contact with the head. However, two of those on the video look as bad if not worse.
  5. This madcap idea must work for the sake of the game. Scrapping the licencing so early and recent bad press over broke clubs and lack of sponsor are making super league look anything but super to the outside world. I think through cc games and play offs that fans can't afford or don't want to attend extra fixtures even when they are against a top team. I fail to see how fans will turn out now for more games. Serious questions. ... How can teams sell season tickets without any guarantee of the number of games or the opposition for one third of the matches? Is the top 8 mini league the new play offs or will there be play offs in addition? If there are play offs (top 5) and the top 5 are already clear after the split then what is the point of the 8 having more fixtures? If the bottom 4 of sl1 have such a financial advantage over the top 4 of sl2 how likely is it that we will ever see a side promoted? After 2 or 3 years of no promotion will there be another change to the format? How long do we give the new system if crowds are significantly down? I really hope this works and actually like the idea but I can't see it doing anything other than be a perfect excuse for already disillusioned fans to walk away from the game
  6. Can we have a criticism free week? It is no wonder rl cant grow with all the negativity
  7. Free marketing opportunity, RFL should play on this and people like Dani Mingogues partner. Make RL trendy
  8. Was meant to be in Italy for my sisters wedding, but the M4 fiasco yesterday = missed flights. Every cloud has a silver lining. Off to the final. 1 question, just bought a ticket online, doesnt seem to mention how I will get it? Is there a ticket office open at OT?
  9. I'll try asking again, no reply first time. Anyone know when the reruns of the match are being shown on Sky? I am away until Sunday pm and want to see it without knowing the score
  10. Anyone know when Sky will be screening the replays of this game? I am away in Italy and not back until Sunday evening. And no, not got SKY+
  11. I meant right place right time before the P&R door was bolted shut.
  12. I am amazed no SL has ever offered the ST holders of any other club a half price ST if they switch to them. For a club like Huddersfield, how many clubs are within 30 mins drive? However, I think it is so wrong. The SL has become an elite club that look down their noses at the rest. Isn't this similar to the clique that caused the breakaway 100 years ago? I think SL clubs do need to be ruthless in order to survive and thrive, and full gruonds on SKY does wonders for the promotion and credability of the game. But at the same time, surely history and values should play a part. Especially for those half a dozen SL clubs that were in the right place at the right time and could easily have missed out at the expense of some of the CC clubs.
  13. Great, thank you for the info. Will decide in the morning whether to make the journey up from Bristol.
  14. Knew some smart ###### would say that. Bit difficult when in work.
  15. Anyone know how they are selling? Debating a trip up on Saturday but need to find out if they have many left (Standing)
