I sympathise mate, even in a country where League is the most popular TV sport I know what it`s like to have a broadcaster , in our case the national broadcaster, who never misses an opportunity to have a dig or point out a negative about the game. It`s frustrating and infuriating to say the least and they talk up our main competitor like their #*^! doesn`t stink and trust me some of the things they have done are every bit as bad and sometimes worse than anything that has occurred in League.

Josef K Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 Thankfully i never watch itv because it’s a rubbish station. From naff morning shows mostly involving Philip Schofield, to naff afternoons shows & quiz shows. Then naff soaps on a night, along with the dreadful itv entertainment involving P Schofield, and then he pops up on the naff ads. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevecl Posted April 23, 2022 Share Posted April 23, 2022 It’s got nothing to do with which code you support so why does it always come down to a “my code is better than your code” pi**ing contest. Ex players from both sides of the divide are taking actions against their respective governing bodies and all of them are going to need help and understanding in years to come. I’m not 100% convinced this should come at the cost of those governing bodies being bankrupted in court but it is the litigious world we live in.

Rugby League probably features on ITV news less once a year and every single story is negative. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
