Heard this today.

Do you think anyone on here will be bothered Dick? They're ok - got more money next year. Besides, there is no game outside of super league, so nothing to show. Won't be able to see it with their heads buried in the sand anyway!

What a shame. It's more interesting to watch than SL.

Viewing figures to strong for it not to be picked up somewhere IMO. Decent sponsorship behind it too.

There is always Time Team on History and More 4 if you want the look at the past.

If true,i can cancell my sky sports subscription.Only reason i have it,is for championship rugby.

I guess that if this is true and I heard the rumours a few weeks ago. That is down to sky not willing to pay for the product. Even though its ratings beats certain other sports that sky show.

I didn't think Sky paid for the Championships. I really hope someone picks it up as it's usually a good watch. Last night's game wasn't of the highest standard skill wise but highly entertaining.

Me too. They can stick SL. I won't pay just for that.

Yeah they dont but maybe they have been told to cough up for it now as they are make a fortune for showing it.

Where've you all been?

This has been known for several days now, word on the street is that Championship games are going to be shown by Premier Sports.

Which street?

The way the SL/RFL is now run there may not be any clubs to watch in the championship due to a severe lack of aiming to win anything, apathy and possible reduction in income from central sources as the "big boys" want to get their collective snouts into the trough even if they are totally incompetant and have no realistic chance of winning anything either.

SLE/RL the only sport that tries (and sometimes succeeds) in rewarding failure and mediocrity!!!

Have heard this as well from a decent source. Should be good for the championship clubs. Might get away from Thurs night games also.

Just as happened with british tennis when a certain someone was in charge. That worked out well too didn't it. Boy we learnt from that eh?

I hope it goes to Premier sports as it will give me abit more to watch as I have it already for the NRL & just maybe they will show it on saturday afternoons now that would be good.
