Superleague clubs chosen to host Sky Sports matches get 20K in compensation. As if you didn't need anymore proof of the disparity of competition in middle 8's Championship clubs get 0.

Derek is kicking off about it and understandably so given that Leigh have been chosen to host two of them.

Personally in view of this I'm not going to go to that soon to be derelict tip at Wankfield. For two reasons.

1. Given we've only been picked to play in one its our only chance to show support for the other Championship clubs affected by this.

2. As wakefield fans are quick to point out. Everyone should be treated fairly so not putting another penny in on top of the 20k they're already getting to gamble on staying up again.

It was bad enough when we had to compete with clubs taking half our sky money.

It might seem petty given it doesn't affect us as we aren't hosting any but because it's them I'm not going.

I get what you are saying and agree with you on the whole.

However, the team need all the help they can get and packing out the terraces at Belle Vue to create a fantatsic atmosphere could be more important than squabbling over the extra money being stuffed in Carters pockets before Trinity are sent packing to the Championship!!!

Personally always loved going to Wakefield so won't be missing this for the world.

To be fair I think the RFL have released a statement saying SL clubs out £80k each in a pot, and then when they're on sky they get £15k from this pot. So wakefield probably lost money from it.

Either way that Wakefield game is absolutely huge and I would always choose backing the Bulls over petty points scoring.

Yep youve got to back your club mate, especially now

I agree this is a disgrace

However I shall still be going but I might try climb over the wall now and not pay in

The RFL wrote on Twitter.At start of season the SL clubs each put £80k into a shared pool from which they receive payments (of their own money) for hosting TV games'"

Hey - not good form to talk of Wakefield like that, plus we want as many of them as possible to come to our beloved hole in the ground next season, when as I expect we will be playing them in the Championship.

I hope I am wrong of course but enough of the insults.

Just sounds like an excuse to not to go and support your team

There's nothing which will stop from going supporting my team in these games - not even the wife...in fact she might go as well!

Never mind!

Nah mate, I try to encourage her - I'd love the crowds to rise. In the last four years years though she's only been to four games; V Catalans in perpignan, V Catalans in Perp.....if you see a pattern developing, it's because you're correct.

Isnt worth it, if we win people will be kicking themselves for not going (ino i would) teams needs us to get behind them and we should turn up in numbers, better to not buy one more pint of one more pie whilst there.

All the more reason to get back into Superleague!

You can't let some daft ruling around money stop you supporting your team.

Doubt the Bulls budgeted for this income; so it doesn't really matter anyway!!

Hmmm, bet they did, if you hadn't made the top 4 it would've been a disaster.
