Stick it all over dressing room walls. Yes, 10th October. Just checked and they have what I posted above. Maybe your internet in Batley is steam powered. Us in the NE have 'world leading' speeds.

The French broadcaster, BEIN, withdrew from televising Catalans games part way through the season. BEIN are broadcasting the Toulouse game this weekend.

RogerT Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 It's the same as Catalan did a few years ago in a cup match up at the Mount. It saves the lads having to break work and no overnight costs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RogerT Posted September 30, 2021 Share Posted September 30, 2021 It wouldn't they are full time rugby players not part time who have to work prior and after the match. It's entirely different. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's entirely different. That makes no sense. Do Batley players work after a match on a Saturday or Sunday? Poor buggers if they do, that's not fair. I'm sure that will change if they make it to the SL Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It was better for them than eating late when they got to the ground. The Batley players will find it very different as it won't be a normal game day schedule for them. But these have been difficult times for everyone and will have to find a way to adjust. On a brighter note, the weather looks smashing for Saturday in Toulouse.

Plus it's every 14 days with no game in between. Just to be clear, are these travel arrangements forced upon the club or simply made by the Batley club to reduce costs and time? A genuine question, btw. Sport, amongst other things, is a dream-world offering escape from harsh reality and the disturbing prospect of change.
