  1. Probably been put off dealing with anyone at the RFL for life and decided to join the East of England Conker league.
  2. 2 blokes in a pub. Bloke 1 “I’d really like to set up a professional RL club” Bloke 2 “don’t you need a business plan?” Bloke 1 “not really but thought I’d leak it to this bloke on twitter” Bloke 2 “not much of a plan” Bloke 1 “and…” Bloke 2 “go on” Bloke 1 “he’ll send out a tweet” Bloke 2 “and?” Bloke 1 “within an hour or two there’ll be a thread on TRL Forum” Bloke 2 “so what” Bloke 1 “it’ll debate how long before we get in SL, give us name, home ground and design a badge, and what beers we should get on the can stall” Bloke 2 “genius, let’s do it”
  3. Saw that. Great news. Hopefully the West Yorkshire Massive and Leigh take note.
  4. A little bit of back of the fag packet maths. Currently excluding Catalans, assuming 11 English clubs with 25 first team squads with 18 federation trained players, makes 198. Add on 2 more federation teams making 13 match day squads of 25 of which 15 are federation trained makes a total of 195. An actual reduction of 3. Hopefully Toulouse get a gig meaning 12 @ 15 making 180. If the league stays at 12 but Toulouse get in, it could be as low as 150, or a reduction oh 48 federation trained players (and I appreciate a few could get a gig in France) Brought to you by the West Yorkshire massive and Leigh.
  5. Wouldn’t trust either of them to choose left or right for me.
  6. To quote Mick Morgan. “Bottle-less gets”
  7. It would follow the SL rules of no team allowed to give away freebies against any other team than Catalans.
  8. And Castleford have an embarrassing ground and Salford have embarrassing finances. Why should any of them get in before Catalans? And I haven’t even included embarrassing owners as a factor.
  9. I’d be interested to see a like for like comparison of all Catalans KPIs and value to competition save for contribution to “the exclusive benefit” of the local economy including visiting fans to another randomly selected SL side. In fact, let’s make it 3, Castleford, Huddersfield, Salford.
  10. Didn’t realise I needed to explain “not exclusively”
  11. Not exclusively Yorkshire based but that includes a lot of them.
  12. If IMG have anything about them, they’d implement legal action to ensure that the RFL/SL wouldn’t have a pot to pee in for the next 50 years. I can’t believe my home team Wigan would have anything to do with this shabby charade and if it is being driven by the clubs who have dragged the game down for the last 20 years, then I hope the NRL does come in with a deal to have a hand picked league of clubs that will actually drive the game forward and leave them watching on the touch line. If it is the last game I watch, it will not be at Odsal.
  13. How many more IMG points will these mean? Asking for a friend.
  14. Gets interesting at 5 min 30.
  15. Not sure the digital merchandiser will be too happy with the badge.
  16. I’ve heard on the grapevine that one of Woods first jobs will be to rename the organisation RL Uncommercial.
  17. As far as I can see the disbanded in 1988. Broncos played as Fulham until 1991.
  18. I think we should start a sweepstake about which canine’s ’arris will adorn the back of the new mutt inspired kit. Before they cover it with player numbers that is.
  19. Most of the land on that side are back gardens. There’s a couple of properties but there’s no issue to blocking any light as far as I could see. There’s a alleyway but even if the stand was taller than 2 stories I couldn’t see how it would impinge. It might actually improve the view.
  20. Gone to the dogs. Maybe they could move back to Streatham and Mitcham then surround the pitch with a greyhound track. At least the northern hoards could wear their flatcaps and walk their whippets. I can’t imagine what the entrance music might be?
  21. Wood and Rimmer’s scores must be exaggerated. They were never that high.
  22. I think something lost in translation as it looks like an old Nigel Wood interview about Superleague that has been translated into Catalan and then picked up by a French publication and then back into English. Different countries, same game, same problems.
  23. 200 police at Liverpool, 5 at Everton. Sorted.
