  1. Is that not blackmail? Give me your money or I will sell your favourite players.
  2. 2017. No idea but nobody mentioned averages.
  3. I mentioned it on the match thread but the Wigan v Leeds attendance should be raising alarm bells at IMG. The game itself was entertaining yet a little bizarre at times but great banks of empty seats across the stands for two of the biggest names this side of the equator isn’t good. There is of course some reasons behind why it was a little low but you’d expect 15k for that at least, wouldn’t you? Or am I being all nostalgic?
  4. Like it. Historic but with a modern twist. Shame there’s sponsors on it but it’s 2023 and we are covered in them.
  5. Salford’s old saviour, Marwan Koukash, is in court for a bankruptcy order issued by…his wife.
  6. Bedford first team play in the Southern Conference. St Albans’ first team play in the East but no idea about Hemel but I think it’s their first.
  7. 46-14 to Bedford according to The RFL site.
  8. That original shirt is lovely, the one they’ve made actually isn’t bad, I like the retro badge and it’s quite smart but it’s not a great remake of the original shirt. Leeds’ isn’t bad for a charity shirt, either.
  9. Not being called Bill Arthur is a good starting point.
  10. How many shirts do clubs need? It’s just fast fashion and sport combining further but unlike the annual merry-go-round of shirts changes, many of these kind of shirts are one-off’s, which I don’t really like. Still, it’s a good shirt, being modern whilst having enough of a retro feel about it.
  11. An old fella in my local pub is adamant that Coors, Carling and Madri are the exact same drink with different labels stuck on the bottle. Mahou is great, mind. Estrella Galicia is a personal favourite, though.
  12. They’ll be happy with 50k-ish across the three games at the end of the year. 16-17k at Saints, 17-18k at Leeds and they’ll take 12-15k at Huddersfield.
  13. It doesn’t look alike at all.
  14. During World Cup’s and series’ against New Zealand. Meaningless mid-season friendlies outside of the heartlands are untested and almost certainly won’t be tested because of the risk involved.
  15. If your core support aren’t interested in watching the game on their doorstep, its going to be incredibly tough to get signed off to be played well away from your core support, which is going to need far greater finances behind it than doing little and playing it at Warrington or Leeds and getting 7-9k attending.
  16. They’ve played five games in Scotland since 2014.
  17. Scotland’s last “home” game in England was in 2014.
  18. You congratulate them, then.
  19. Excellent it is not. Decent, maybe. Ideally I’d have liked it announced during the World Cup, if not, ideally a couple of weeks ago to build up this France game. Not 24 Hours before.
  20. The announcement, albeit later than I would have liked, actually has placed some form of significance on England’s game with France and whether an unfancied face can play their way into the side. Maybe some will buy tickets off the back of this.
  21. A Not Lancashire A team. Jesus, I dread to think how bad that would be.
  22. I’ve no idea what goes on in that sport but BBC tend to show England with some regularity so I suspect it will be on there. It’s worth noting that was England A and not England. The proper side were playing as GB in Australia.
  23. Being in the European Cup anyway, when it links to World Cup qualification, is devaluing the competition anyway.
  24. And London has historically done well for tests against other nations.
  25. No one said there was an obligation.
