JohnM Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 Anyone actually pleased that Toulouse has merely lost a key player, or does it go deeper than that. How many people on here want to see them fail, or be kicked out? Asking for a friend. People who think they know everything are a great annoyance to those of us who do.

barnyia Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 (edited) The vaccination pass is supposed to be in place until at least June they said. I just read they can start lifting restrictions due to the vaccine pass, so it doesn't look like they'll be getting rid for a while, Edited January 21 by barnyia Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

My cap is as flat as anyone's..... but I would love Toulouse to survive in SL.... moreover I'd love them to challenge the top teams. It's a great city. A great trip. A great experience. One of the best places to go and watch rugby..... and visit the marché Victor Hugo. I like the club too 16 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really all SL clubs should have an English or French website option as a requisite for entry. They have. They chose French. 2 5 "We'll sell you a seat .... but you'll only need the edge of it!"

Robthegasman Posted January 21 Share Posted January 21 The simple solution to this would be for France to say that there is no need for sportsmen and sportswomen who come and go from France to be vaccinated. And maybe whilst Macron is at it,he should also say that you don’t have to be vaccinated in order to partake in French society and use the facilities that French society offer. Problem solved. 2 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sir Kevin Sinfield Posted January 22 Share Posted January 22 11 hours ago, binosh said: Anyone remember Toronto? Good times. The expansion club who were given no central funding and made to pay away teams travel costs. They would of been in Super League 2022 if we were willing to give them a share of the central funding, sadly we opted against that, they averaged 7000+ in the Championship, who knows how big they could of become in Super League. But you’ve got to say going for Leigh instead last year was the right decision, interest in Super League went through the roof with Leigh’s inclusion. I was listening to the Sadler-Hogan interview, Hogan was at the original Gateshead Thunder Super League club. I was shocked to hear they only received 50% of the central funding compared to other Super League clubs. Neither Toronto or Gateshead stood a chance without an equal share as Wakefield, Salford and the rest get. Catalans are the only expansion club who’ve been given any preferential treatment (exemption from relegation for 3 years) and they are a massive success and now one of our biggest Super League clubs. Why do we keep making the same mistakes, give expansion a chance. 16 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
