RogerT Posted October 10, 2018 Author Share Posted October 10, 2018 C'mon get your hand in those deep pockets and be happy. I'm thinking of making a weeks holiday with the wife who's no sports person, so I said you can go into the beer tent and soak up the atmosphere there.

Hmm and you had a dig at me for asking concessions to pay a little to help get the young-uns in the ground. What's a week in Canada cost to watch a game of rugby we'll probably lose?

RPH Posted October 10, 2018 Share Posted October 10, 2018 well Roger...that's almost three going.... I wonder if Toronto are paying for the championship clubs to travel and stay this time.....I think they were going to let the Super Duper League clubs pay their own way.....had they gone up..... its costing Toronto a fortune....

Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Their major shareholder has just a bit more money than the average Championship club owner I do believe. His timescales are a bit longer than those we are used to in RL.

RogerT Posted October 11, 2018 Author Share Posted October 11, 2018 Batley don't get such luck. I was not having a go at you PM I was just joining in the conversation. I believe they where only paying for two seasons. That's what I did Redditch went out on the Thursday and came back on the Tuesday. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Twp put on some games to come over as a package deal...e.g Magic Weekend and some other games...none of the dates worked. Hopefully it will fit this year around. They had nothing for the March Break that worked and this is a change they will hopefully make this year. P.S. I don't get to 'book' holidays....what is this, some type of socialist thing?...I'm told the dates. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
