Free tickets can boost a lot if attendances , the Sport hasn,'t looked any gift horse in the mouth at all.
The clueless owners BS empty promises & pr stunts have caught up with him.
Delusional to blame SL for an owners failings the criteria didnt stop Catalans
SL owes TWP nothing.

How do you feel about the Championship and League 1 clubs not playing either Mark?

Catalans get a share of the sky tv money, Toronto do not.
Catalans entered our league system in Super League, Toronto entered in League One. Catalans do not pay away teams travel costs, Toronto do pay away teams travel costs. Catalans were exempt from relegation for 3 years, Toronto were not given any exemption.

Another sh#*t show & unfortunately i can see a few going into Admin or folding.
Many of them seem keen enough to get their seasons back on track but it doesnt seem viable from the outside looking in but i also think the Leagues coulld havd been given a bit more time to come up with solutions.

As soon as TWP were promoted talks were ongoung about scrapping relegation.
Catalans also brokered their pwn tv deal with cansl+ SKY used to piggy back iff thst coverage so get that straight.
Catalabs also had a clear business plan & a strong enough support base from the owner downwards with a clear interest in RL in that area.
Toronto OFFERED to oay travel as a condition of their entry into our League mate so that woe is us BS doesnt wash.
They came with promise after promise about big tv deals spinsorzhip in Canada etc etc & fsiled to deliver.

Toronto are too far away out on a limb to have ever worked , it was a ridiculous stunt right from the start and was always going to fail . Some players saw them as a cash cow and got paid more than they ever would by an English team and others such as Wilkin and S.W.B have just topped up their pension funds .

Toronto were going to get their own T.V. deal

Toronto were going to produce their own players

If they are crying the poor tale now it is for reasons such as 1. The money wasted on a washed up S.W.B AND 2. The owner is looking at a new Toy to invest his money

We'll see, if they take this reprieve to really get their house in order for 2021.
I have bigger concerns about the clubs in the lower tiers. Unless they get a decent share of the government bailout they could be in serious trouble.

Sorry what reprieve is that ?

No promotion and relegation.

Something is seriously wrong with a sport whereby teams are better off furloughing their staff than continuing to play

Unprecedented times Sal unfortunately. Many businesses are in the same boat and only the full financial ruin will be seen when furlough is over.

So many businesses are being run on debt and have no cash in the bank whatsoever. RL is certainly no different.

That means nothing to Toronto , they are as good as gone !

I agree - but something is wrong when clubs use the ST monies to see them through the winter they should be building up reserves during the season to see them through the Winter - robbing Peter to pay Paul. Then have to emotionally blackmail their customers not to ask for a refund

TWP get no share of the Sky TV deal and cannot play any games at home this season ,so in reality what were we expecting to happen . If they play games their costs increase but their revenue is still nothing or minimal . Whether they should have done better in obtaining a TV deal themselves is another matter , but if Argyle is paying the wages for this season (not a fact I know either way) then at least the players are OK .

I do not know if Canada had a furlough scheme , maybe others know this, but our clubs have been using this even to the extent of not paying academy players their wages , which in most cases isn't exactly a lot .
Next season most clubs are not going to pay their current 2nd year academy players (unless they have a first team contract) and so expecting them to play for free on amateur terms .

The timing seems very much a case of they realised P&R was being scrapped , but maybe there was a clue with Liam Kay signing for Wakey .

There is talk of the Championship clubs and League 1 clubs having a "meaningful competition" this autumn , whatever that means . But if so they could potentially have fans back in the grounds to make this worthwhile .
