And so you aim towards the sky, And you'll rise high today, Fly away, Far away, Far from pain....:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_53838.jpg



Odsal is the biggest white elephant in RL.

All this talk of it being 'iconic'- is there a RL fan who really enjoyed watching a game there?... No cover, miles from the pitch, poor atmosphere, I don't see a single selling point of why anybody would want that relic back, when surely we should be looking to make the game look modern and worth investing in?

Quote: craig hkr "16 years is a pretty slow walk. But ultimately it was a loss making enterprise which hed invested in like majority of RL club. I do agree with some of your points but never the merger and Newacastle area did have a high spending franchise till plundered by the Pogs.Seems we will be welcoming backn Toronto shortly so there you go. The future is Transatlantic once more. If we do slip back out of SL it may be no bad thing.'"


Yeah with an investor but only if they get their ‘fair share’ of the TV money..

So TV money = Toronto No TV money = No Toronto

They need the TV money just to pay Sonny Bill what a sad set of affairs the RFL have created..

SKY want subscriptions for the Superleague games they show. They get these subs from English fans not from Canadians. SKY won't hold Superleague back if they want to develop and expand the sport. but they put a minimum nine English club requirement on this as Adam Pearson said......

Catalans have one of the three possible overseas spots. That means there is no room for any more than two North American clubs in SL. Perez stated North American TV companies would only back a Superleague if there were at least five North American clubs in it.

So the bottom line is TWP, Ottawa and New York create zero value to the SKY TV deal. That they may demand a cut of said deal is ridiculous, that SKY may give them that is equally ridiculous.

Rlfans - the most toxic rugby league forum in the world:



Quote: wrencat1873 "Go on then, prove it.

Since SL was "created" by Uncle Mo, the following clubs have had new grounds

What about the clubs that gave a guarantee they would get a new stadium, that SL fell for?

No guarantees were actually given, unless you can provide some archive evidence?
