What would a Cockney know about rugby league?:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_73558.jpeg



Quote: Miro "Wakefield tried the hype a few seasons ago versus Cas ing who "owned" the City, North Stand or summat like that. Unfortunatley a few fans of both clubs couldn't handle the excitement, or their ale, and spoiled it for everyone.'"


I thought those adverts were asking for problems back in 2012. Was a Good Friday 8PM kick off I think and it was a bit naughty in the ground.

RL doesn't like to play on animosity too much but publicising the rivalries could generate more interest from new fans.

Can't believe it was as far back in 2003 when Wires got themselves in bother over the three eyed fish poster when hyping up the local derby with Widnes.

Of course this was the idea of Sean Mellor, who is Joe's dad.

Quote: SFW "It's been done in the past but when we have teams playing each other up to five times in a single season it's almost impossible to maintain.'"

That never dampened the Auld Firm rivalry in Glasgow. They used to play four league games and then face each other in the two cups as well, almost every season.

WE should do anything (within reason) to generate interest in the games, I think it's called Marketing.
Most SL clubs pay people to do this and some are better than others.

The problem that the game has is that we have very, very little national exposure, due to the game (at the top level) being played in small parts of Yorkshire and Lancashire (I'm including Cheshire in with Lancashire icon_biggrin.gif ).
