| If a club has to rely on away fans coming through the gates in order to be financially viable, then they need to take a long, hard look at themselves.
This obsession with away fan numbers is a strange one amongst UK RL fans. Page 1 and it's a discussion on away fan numbers. Fks sake.

| They brought back relegation in 2014. Quite the opposite of what is being alluded to.

Put like that, it sounds so simple.
Unfortunately, RL spends too much time with gimmicks (sorry, being innovative ) and the sport seems wholly incapable of making any decent long term decisions.
People are starting to get used to the 3 x 8 system but, it wont allow the "expansion" clubs to flourish so, we may well end up with another change ??
It's mickey poor that only 3 years ago, before the new structure was implemented, that NOBODY at the RFL could see the problem on the horizon.
We want to be everything to everybody, instead of working out the best way to take the sport forward and then getting on with it.
Where do we want to be in 5 years, 10 years and 20 years time ?
Right now, we will either get lucky and have some success with the North American "experiment and miraculously start to attract some major sponsors into the game, although it would be akin to throwing 6 double sixes in a row or, despite trying to expand, we risk shrinking the professional game in the UK still further.
Are we hoping that if/when Toronto make it into SL, suddenly it will allow us to harvest the money tree because, in terms of added value and cash contribution, it's really unclear just what they will bring to the game.

| And perhaps French tv might make more of an effort.

Agreed.
If your stadium holds 10k then you should be looking to sell 10,000 seats to locals and for the RFL to force you to release a % of seats for away fans. The Income of a club is 100% that clubs responsibility.....be that from gate receipts, sponsorship or central revenue income that is determined by their finishing spot in the comp....away fans and their revenue are the icing on the cake.
Whinging about away fans is nothing more than fear/jealously/resentment of another side than anything else....

Good post.
For me the RFL's obsession with planting English teams in far away places is quite laughable, I can only imagine it is also quite laughable for anyone on the outside looking in.
