Why are people mocking BSL? Sure it is an amateur grassroots competition, but at least they play real matches, with real teams, since 2017. Unlike this virtual nonsense.

I am new to this forum but felt compelled to comment on this. The man is a myth and never delivers anything he says and would be amazed if the lads at the Gladiators have not worked this out yet.

The story isn't in League Express, and I've just binned it off Total RL as well and removed it from our social media channels.

I'll open the popcorn. This'll be fun. 

Is it really, or are you just speculating? I’m still waiting for Valencia to get into L1.

Get ready for 6-12 months of tweeting about grand plans & promises, (some people on here getting ridiculously excited about it) only for it to all fizzle. 

Spain have not played a local match in 4 years. How about starting with getting that back on track before attempting to 'conquer' Europe? 

Also, didn't the guy behind this also take over Bath RL? How did that work out?

From their FB.

"what teams are involved in this? Will the 6 or so Spanish clubs launched in the pandemic now be joining this league?"

Already sorted ☺️

Oh god, do we have to pretend that people opening online shops to flog mock up shirts are running actual proper teams in real leagues again?

It'd be great to look back on this thread in years to come just as the North Brussels Gorillas beat Wigan in the 2052 Rugby Champions League final ending more than 20 years of British dominance in the competition, thus earning the right to play the Perth Reds in the 2053 World Club Challenge.

Reykjavik Rabbitohs top looks smart though.

I can confirm 30+ less sales for Scotland vs Italy at Workington, after this afternoons test purchase for the Tonga match, £7.50 is extremely reasonable, however a £2.50 'delivery' fee for a walk in purchase is beyond taking the mickey, good luck with that, it's cheaper on the telly.

Don't be silly it'll be the Valencia Hurricanes, the NARL will be bigger than Super League, the Odsal Super dome will be the Wembley of the north, and Keighley Cougars will still be trying to get into Superleague

China will have won the rights to host the 2053 world cup and the Balkan Super League will be limiting its non Balkan based team participation to just 2 teams. London meanwhile will have just started its third professional team.

Decent badge with Hallgrimskirkja made to look like some rugby posts and a kit that features a hologram of an erupting volcano?

Are they the ones who withdrew from the RFL?

I think that is the very reason they should be praised. They've been turning over a steady community comp for a couple of decades now. Where else in the world could claim that?

I put forward Montpellier sharks for this comp, they have a online shop, massive partners, a nice playing strip, but no players,

 

They're perfect for this league and will easily make the virtual on line playoffs,
