Quote: Craig_UK "Sorry if this has been covered but not been on these boards all that much for a while.

Mr Wood has numerous bad decisions over the past couple of years.

We all know the problem with Premier, only available on Sky or online, which is restricting your audience from the start, only an idiot would choose this as the platform to broadcast using this company.

Before i slate him for the World Cup (other than England games) being on Premier Sports, can someone enlighten me as to why Premier were chosen? Were they the only bidders? I don't believe for one minute they outbid anyone, were they the only offer on the table?

Surely someone should have put it requirements that they have to get the channel on Virgin, Freeview, BT etc before being given the go ahead??'"

Only have to look at popularity of Netlfix (see 'Breaking Bad') to see whilst online only being an inconvenience.. it's hardly an issue nowadays.

Also surely there's more people with Sky than Virgin..

Brad Fitler "If the ref's decision decides your game. You haven't done enough prior." Referees are like women, they make snap decisions and never reverse them. [b]Littlerich wrote[/b] Widnes will be glad to get away from Leigh. They've been regularly pumped, roasted and left in the alley-way by the lobbygobblers. Talk about being bitched - what a torrid time they've had. They'll be looking for some A&E rest time for the next three years at least.:simpsons/PDT13.gif

BBC NE & Cumbria news have just done a feature on the FIJI team who are currently staying in N Yorks. One slight criticism is they didn't mention when, where or who they will be playing.

Quote: t-r-i-n-i-t-y "Imagine if this forum was around when Wire TV were awarded the rights to the 1995 World Cup!

The most important thing is England games live on the BBC. Everything else, as harsh as it may sounds, doesn't matter if they're on Sky, Premier or Information TV with greyhound races in the middle.'"

This !!!!

Apart from the England games and the semi finals onwards, who apart from those on this forum give a b0llox anyway??? Nobody.

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Quote: gutterfax "
I am not a fan of the Premier TV deal but it is what it is...and that is probably the best way to have Live top level RL available to a wider audience than the game has had access too for a long long time. Trick is now is to convert these curious eyeballs into curious attendees at RL games in the 2014 season.'"

To get new fans interested, you need them to understand that what they are watching ' matters ' unfortunatley they have just lost 5 such matches with demise of the NL Cup

James Gordon ‏@jamesgordon67

I hear that a deal has been struck so Virgin Media viewers can watch the @RLWC2013 on Premier Sports for free.'"

James gordon from loverugbyleague.com wrote that earlier on twitter.

No idea if there's any truth to it, and if there is It's not certain whether it's for everyone on virgin or XL packages etc, I guess we'll just have to wait and see.
