Tommygilf Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 5 minutes ago, Spidey said: In the Q&A with Martyn Sadler it’s stated there is a limit to how many times you get selected. I don’t think that number was shared though I suppose from a slightly different perspective I meant was there a minimum? Wasn't it something like at least 3 times On TV minimum or something in Super League, pre covid. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When the fixtures come out I guess we’ll have some indication Leigh are busy hiring out the LSV every Monday night apparently 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My wife,s company used to provide the pitchside advertising for the Pro 14 on SKY as soon as it moved to Premier Sport the interest from clients dropped to almost zero which was a shame as the 2 Italian matches were a weekend of foodie bliss:) which we all miss especially the logistics boys. Premier Sport is a tough old sale however I wish the clubs and them well and hope it works out. Paul By the way I have a mate who does the pitchside ads for UEFA. Deeply envious. I digress. It is not the case that Pro 14/16 supporters in Wales lament that Premier took over from the beeb as first it is ######, but mainly as it was felt it disappeared down a black hole? I see that some games this season have returned to the BBC as well as on S4C. Unless Premier can demonstrates a profit for clubs, I reckon it will quickly be dropped.

Some fans, but if we are talking financial impact we are referring to the hosts. Hopefully there will be some pragmatism and an aim for Variety. For example if you are going to show Newcastle on a Monday you choose either the most local geographically or a team where the away following would be tiny anyway, therefore impacting a small number of people.

You are correct I think I had in mind home games, as a lot of the discussion was around the number of home games on the Season Ticket that would be affected. Speaking personally, I'd be more than delighted if our (Bulls) away game at Workington (or Haven or Barrow) gets chosen for the Monday night match. Less so for a home game against Featherstone or Leigh Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Les Tonks Sidestep Posted October 13 Share Posted October 13 Visually, the budget will also be used to enhance the matchday experience. Flame cannons and fireworks are among the features that should be expected at games in an attempt to improve the product to audiences. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
