Keep The Faith 625 Posted May 10 Report Share Posted May 10 I’ve seen that fans of Oldham, Dewsbury and Newcastle won’t be able to watch their sides play on Monday evening following sky’s blockage of streaming as home fans will return btw Friday just gone Sheffield Eagles vs Batley was on our league meanwhile on a free sky channel 2 challenge cup ties were shown i’m for one baffled by this as fans of the clubs would still have to pay 4.95 for the game meaning the home teams would make some kind of money back why does the sport shoot itself in the foot so many times before it realises it’s public image is terrible I hope for once the RFL can resolve this issue before it’s too late and the championship clubs lose fans http://tombatley.wordpress.com/ Give it a read..

All the championship comments on the subject is down to the clash with the Sky game. Including now Bradford moving the fixture again Link to post Share on other sites
