I see that Toronto have announced the signing of Westerman from Warrington for a transfer fee of £130k. Going to be very difficult to get top 4 next year with Leigh , Toronto , London , Fev , and Toulouse in this division.

The club do look at potential gates for games and try average it out to try budget ahead but having a good away following adds the cream. Come on some clubs such as Swinton do rely on away fans it is understandable but dangerous.
For me it is the lack of atmosphere that no away fans makes its rubbish.

Same here. I struggle to even get mildly excited for about 70-80% of the games in this league.

Unfortunately, about half the $uperleague clubs see no value in funding an undercompetition. They reckon they'd be a lot better off splitting the cash 12 (maybe 14 or 16) ways. Don't underestimate Nigel as the glue holding together a 40 club competition.

Very true Griff the sport is a very different game on and off the field from what it was for many of us x number of years ago when we first started watching it.

It’s hard to accept it and adjust when your team is now part of the under competition and the powers that be want to make it permanent.

Can’t decide on Nigel and who’s interests he’s looking after but it certainly includes his own.

Never underestimate the glue holding together a 3**K plus pay check and a 40 stone weight bearing chair.

I can decide on Nigel but if I put it on here I'd be barred! Sportsman shudds, Dark Star Hophead 3.8% Mmm!
