There is an assumption, repeated several times on this thread, that because someone has money they must be smart and have deeply considered motivations.
I encounter some very affluent people pretty much every day. Some meet that, some were born with money, some are very successful in a field where that gets you money, but plenty have just got a bit fortunate a couple of times and held on to some decent cash as a result.
I have no idea where Davy fits in that spectrum but wouldn't necessarily assume that just because he is successful and has the money to put ideas in place, it means it's well thought through or strategic.
Sometimes a bad idea is a bad idea.
London Broncos....

Can someone in a nutshell brake it down to me (simple as possible) on what exactly happened, why the club is in a mess now, and the "predicted future" of the club... I've been lost in this mess... so confused need clarity.
Cheers.

Is there any truth in the latest rumour?
Shedding the Red Devils brand to relaunch as the Salford 49ers?
That's must be a joke?

Nothing official at minute all just speculation.
Just like the Brisbane takeover

And besides if this is happening... and people want a name change it really should be named the London Seahorses (closest thing to merging a Dolphin to a Bronco)

I don't think another name change is what is needed.... stability and a permanent location with finances are in order.
Fulham, Crusaders, Broncos, Harlequins, Broncos and now maybe Dolphins.... I think it needs to stop. At least under Broncos they had some decent history making the the Challenge Cup Final.

Given current happenings, I doubt we'll see any rugby league at New Old Trafford.
And premier league.

I have never once heard of any talks of merger between the codes.
The Irfu and Rugby League Ireland do not have any relations with each other. Individual RLI clubs do rent facilities from the Irfu.
But if such a merger would occur the Irfu would bring the 4 provinces to the table, one of the oldest national teams , a five division national league and a vibrant school system. The biggest attended club game in any code of Rugby is Munster v Leinster in Northern hemisphere. RLI would bring its relations with communities in North of England.
The RLI would only have a pint of Guinness and a half eaten bag of crisps as there bargaining.

It’s making the Odsal deal look relatively normal at this point. Can’t wait for the ‘RFL intervention derby’ next week between Salford and Bradford. Match sponsorship by Probiz of course.
And Stobart.

Surely someone's got the wrong end of the stick here? Leeds makes sense, but not Headingley!
I'd have looked elsewhere in London. Wembley has cachet and prestige, but that's diminished when it's not full imo
Sounds like someone owes Headingly/Leeds a favour.. hence the stadium pick.

I read the venues will be Wembly, Elland rd and Everton's new stadium. Correct?
It's been reported it could be Headingly

If the NRL did buy Super League... would mergers / relocations / name changes be accepted by the RFL ...or more importantly the fans ?
in The General Rugby League Forum

Its Been reported that the NRL could sign a $3 Billion Australian Dollars TV deal... They could definitely buy the Super League with some of that change.
