Maybe wealthy backers should stick to Union, we can’t have these upstarts trying new things. Your missing the point. It’s not how much money the new club has it’s the league 1 clubs who have to travel unless the new club pays like Toronto did sometimes you have to take a step backwards to move forward Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s one game a season, have you asked the existing L1 teams if they want to go to Cornwall or are you just assuming they don’t? 9 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Takes a bow - I’m a bit embarrassed that they spent all that money just to bring me in, but 1000 posts on here and subscriptions to RL World and Forty20 means someone presumably benefited somewhere.

The Hallucinating Goose Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 As I just said on the other thread, don't know if they still do due to the pandemic but Eastern Airways certainly used to fly from Leeds to Newquay so wouldn't take too long to get down there if those flights still go!

RigbyLuger Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 Perez is the latest in a line of those who latch onto Rugby League with wild statements, and those who want to believe do so, because they ignore reality. His cheerleaders in the media will be whipping up a storm while those who say anything negative are criticised. I hope RL in Cornwall is a massive success. I don't see it being so with him involved.

Chris22 Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 I am excited and cautious in equal measure. Excited because its a chance to develop the sport in an area with little in the way of sporting competition. We have little to lose, even if this project does fail. We might as well try. I am cautious for obvious reasons. I wonder what due diligence has been put into this. Where will the players come from at such short notice? Will fortnightly long trips cause issues? Have we done anything or are we going to do anything to lay foundations to allow the club to grow. Anyway, never a dull moment in this sport! 1 Twitter: @TrylineUK Latest Blog: What is the Challenge Cup about? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sports Prophet Posted November 2, 2021 Share Posted November 2, 2021 If this does work then we are in for a big future. When Cornwall are promoted to The Championship after their first season, I can see the continental fans of Feather… sorry European Rovers flock to Cornwall for an away trip.
