RLWC2021 - not the rugby

[Maximus Decimus]

My daughter went on a trip to the local library this week, for a story that about the RLWC.

I was involved in the State of Mind Choir to make this song that was released this wee with the video (look out for the North Wales Crusaders shirt!)

Its the unofficial anthem of the Rugby League World Cup....

It's good to see Samoa enjoying the cultural delights of Doncaster:

Details of the Fan Village in Newcastle. Shame it couldn't be on for the Saturday and Sunday as there is a Scotland game on then, but maybe the footfall would be low on a Sunday...

The room packed with media did, and anyone watching on the OurLeague/RLWC app?

Those in the circle and the small number who use the app. Wonderful.

Me, they tweeted about it.

Were you expecting BBC1 to carry it live?

It was a media event. The media attended it. Job done.

I know it's geeky, but I do like to see a stadium dressed nicely.

Not geeky at all, Dave.....now hear me out about these pitch markings....

Bolton do seem to be doing a lot to promote their game:

Good song, well sung, Gogledd, and I say that as a director of one choir and tenor in another.  Thanks for sharing it.  I hope it gets extensively used at RLWC matches

It made ITV Tyne Tees Breakfast News this morning, along with a mention of the England Samoa game on Saturday.

Would like to see Gary Neville do an Overlap with Tomkins, or whomever walking around Manchester. This would be great advertising.

I hope there'll be a way for people to buy tickets there (assuming the various Newcastle games are not a sellout) - seems like there could be a fair amount of footfall with shoppers etc. Could be a very effective way of filling any remaining gaps.

It's nice to see the effort that Newcastle City Council are going to with plenty going on on Friday and Saturday:

This all looks very positive. Will be sure to take the fam down nice and early.
