Quote: TrinTrin "Willzay completely wrong, i.am a WAKEY fan & have been for more than 40yrs ! I also have a season ticket as do all my family !
I am not a troll, but I do ask questions, some people do not like !
The fact is that travel for 19 plus staff for several days is quite a cost, teams already travel to catalan in one day
Because of cost !
Go to google and toronto & view written agreement !'"

You are correct that it will cost clubs, but who actually cares? Fans of top football clubs spend thousands travelling around Europe following their clubs, two trips a year is not much to ask if you can’t afford it that’s tough it’s what life is about, we have to stop this catering for fans who can’t afford to pay & focus on the ones that can & will pay, sorry if sounds cruel but so is life. I personally am excited about a trip to Toronto & if health permitting I will be off. If clubs can’t or the RFL organise block bookings & offset the cost by selling travel to fans then we are lost anyway.

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



Quote: vastman "Do you have a care? I’d cycle through Headingley to fund one for you if that would help.

You are a perfect example of why Brexit won and why exspansion in the South is both unwanted and unworkable - why would any sport want ignorant fools like you joining it’s ranks?'"


Is English not your first language lad? The sentences above make no sense at all?

Do I have a care? Well, thanks for asking but, nope, not a care in the world at the moment as I pack for my flight back to blighty, so no need to pump your tyres and get out those cycle clips just yet. By the way, I cycled to Headingley from London......not just through Headingley.

As for me being the perfect example of why Brexit won, I am at a loss dear boy? I do not have a racist bone in my body and fully support the free movement of both citizens and trade through Europe, so how you make that assumption is a mystery. But, then again, given your "frothing at the mouth reactions to any support of a non heartland club", maybe not.
As for......EXPANSION (slow down when ranting and turn on spell-checker), I believe that if RL is going to flourish, it needs to expand and if we keep donating £1,800,000 a year to clubs like yours just so 4,000 unwashed in-bred's can rock up once a fortnight, with no plans for growth, only survival, then the game will cease to exist as a viable professional sport in England.

http://flightsandfrustration.com/ It is "Fifita" not "Fafita" If you don't know the difference between "there", "their" and "they're" I might get annoyed. Sharing First World problems so you can get it right first time. Millionaires wanted. Apply here --- Wakefield Trinity:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47943.jpg

How to make friends and influence people? You really need to think more about your tone and approach to making your point. You say you are not racist but on a previous post you've slated northerners with generalisations and false stereotypes. Now you are calling the people of Wakefield "unwashed in-breds". Just as well that I am not a moderator because you would be on a week's ban now.
