Quote: SaintsFan "I read somewhere that the rules had changed this season. A small percentage goes to the RFL, a slightly bigger percentage goes to the host club and then the rest is divided equally between the two clubs playing, I think to the tune of 40% each, something like that. I don't know how true that change is but if it is true then Oldham will get 40% of what will probably be a bigger turnout than would have been the case at the Whitebank Stadium, which only holds 1500. They won't have to fund the overheads either (except the free buses).
I don't think we will need police somehow!
Given that a condition of Oldham playing at Whitebank was that they were not allowed to have a Superleague team play there, playing at Langtree is more cost effective than renting some drafty place nobody wants to go to.'"
"Ice Station Zebra" as Joe Royle called it and lost a stand since then.
