Best of luck to Batley against Leigh, your team is tenacious and skill full and I for one would love to see you turn the Leythers over.

You have a Cumbrian in your team and that’s good enough for me.

Good Luck (Workington Fan).

I hope this outstanding year and performance in the play offs is rewarded with better funding from the rfl for next season. I’ve tried to find out but it would be easier to find lord lucan

Does anyone know what the financial benefit is to us from this run? Do we still get only 5th place finish money or is there extra cash for getting to the final?

How about the split gate receipts from a combined attendance of around 12-15k?

As I understand it a split gate from the Barrow match, split gate from the Featherstone match possibly slit gate from the Leigh match plus whatever Batley receive from losing in the final, we know what they get if they win £1million.

I hope I have that right they are all minus team's expenses.

Therefore at present v Barrow att 3595, Featherstone att 4000.

Sorry to be a little pedantic, but the MPG was originally called so, because it was worth an extra £1M to the winner of the GF, when we had promotion and relegation. SL funding was circa £1.8M, the losing finalists got £1M less than the promoted team, circa £800k. 

From what I've read, the latest sky deal is £24m a season, of which, the RFL has been allocated £5M to distribute to all of the clubs outside of SL. 

Logically, if the MPG is true to its name, and worth £1M more funding to the winners. The loser of the final should get £583k, if each of the 12 SL clubs get an equal share of the £19M remaining of the Sky TV deal, as it would equate to £1.583M each. I haven't seen what funding SL are getting, if any, in relation to the Channel 4 coverage.

But when did RL follow any sort of logic?

Well done Batley. Fill that South Stand. Be loud and proud and give us Leythers the fright of our lives. 

I thought you were terrific on Sun. Best of luck 👌

Be up early again for this one. Just hope the reception is better on Live Sport.

Been a terrific season for the Dogs to finish just behind Leigh. If it hadn't been for Leighs big spending who  knows what  the result  may be.

I think the score will be much closer on Sun than when they last met.
