Quote: christopher "Yes that's why Sinfield had such a great career, by conning officials - give your head a shake.'"

I'm not saying he wasn't a very talented player, just pointing out one of those talents was practically ref'ng the game. Ask any none Leeds fan, him and Burrow constantly bleated to officials.

Quote: Leigh_Manning "reality is not welcome, believe the myth that the Leeds fans do.

They sing a football song, tells you everything.

Maybe in Leeds "Rugbys coming home"

(you can't doubt their loyalty though, must be tough to travel from Bradford, Wakefield, Huddersfield to join a bandwagon, only to find the wheels have come off and the conductor is blaming everyone else)'"


As the majority of your posts on rlfans have Leeds as the main theme, I’d suggest you’re a troll or need to talk to somebody about your little obsession

Quote: Call Me God "They own it.........they can do exactly what they want with it. There are countless accusations of conspiracy and being hard done by, but the reality is the game put itself up for sale and was sold......other sorts aren't as "compliant" or easily used....that's not the fault of the people giving us £25,000,000 + a year....it's the fault of the people taking it!'"

I never said they didn’t own the rights or that they can’t do what they want with it. They could pay for the rights and not show a single game if they wanted. That doesn’t mean that’s what I think they should do.

The changes I mentioned are not anything that would cost Sky any money. It’s only what they do with most of their other sports programmes. It can’t possibly be in Sky’s interest to broadcast a poor programme, yet that’s what they’re doing. As I said, change the producer and I reckon you’ll soon see some positive changes.

JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

Option 1.
You as a sky customer complain to them....they won't give a flying one....they get 100k to 150k for games and doubt they'll get any more viewers as RL is a sport you have to look for, not one where you'll catch casual viewers.
Option 2.
The people who are responsible for negotiating the TV deal on behalf of the sport make it clear that any production that isn't deemed up to scratch will jeopardize the contract.....again, they won't give a flying one......
Option 3.
Package the next TV deal up with "in-house" production teams and insist on a partnership with a FTA channel.

Choose one of the three above, but realise that we made our own bed when we scrambled to take the cash.......we can't blame SKY for not caring

Quote: Mild mannered Janitor "This is the second time this has been quoted yet no evidence to back it up.

Stop making out RL is a victim here. Your post suggest RL has been singles out for poor treatment, yet you cannot state how or why.

There are plenty of trailers on sky for forthcoming RL games.'"

But not on other channels like there are for soccer and cricket. Not on their vans, not on their display stands in shopping centres.
