Thing is.....he wasn't, neither was Gutterfax. He started a thread about attendances because the guy in charge at the RFL had apparently the bare faced cheek to big up attendances when he could.....hardly a crime you wouldn't see committed every day in the working world by a guy in that position. (Could William/Gutters honestly say they wouldn't find themselves putting positive spin on attendances when they could if they had that role in the RFL?..... If they say no they're lying)

Gutterfax/Galliant again kicked off because ONE poster subscribed to BT sports to watch RU even though he disliked it and they then tried making out that numerous RL fans were doing the same.

What they do is take ONE/TWO persons comments and try and make out that the majority of the RL community think the exact same.....it's the cheapest form of attention seeking and trolling there is. Like i said before, the biggest trolls on here usually display no grasp of the actual product on the field, because they've probably only played it once as a kid, got sat on their backside first tackle and belittled it from a spectator view ever since.

Stratch beneath the surface and see that their topics and posts are the same repeatitive stuff over and over and over again and you'll see just how little they offer. Like Gutters always talking RU sponsorship and attendances......is it because he has a good point he's passionate about.....or is it because he knows naff all about on field action.

Good way to spot a troll on here. They'll portray an image of someone who is all knowledgable....yet will only talk about the 4/5 topics they feel they can talk and win about.

On this forum, a similar time to you, on this god forsaken earth, probably a lot longer. But whatever you’re getting at, it still won’t sway my opinions, no matter how many of the rose tinted brigade scream & shout - R.L’s popularity is flat-lining.



Oh sorry when you said



I thought you meant they could be compared - apologies, silly me.

Yep, you sound like it too. Funny how it's always those who've been into something for the longest time that like to hate on it's current state.
Everything was better when you were a lad, eh.



And yet crowds are up, sponsorship is at record levels and there's never in the history of the game been more TV exposure. Go figure

Alas it has and traffic and instances of genuine interest are down as a result.

That has to be the understatement of the year

Super league for some reason got 'huge hits' in October last year.

Unprecedented.

Maybe Flower should have got a bonus.....

Not at all. Quite the opposite actually although I do enjoy coming on here now and then for a bit of pointless bickering.



Sorry for that then, I misread your post. It came across (to me at least) as sarcasm and considering some of your earlier posts that was a fairly easy mistake to make.



Well you rebuffed my comment re the current TV exposure and pre-Sky we were limited to highlights shows in the Winter weren't we?



It'll never become the Rose Tinted Terrace but it's nice to be positive now and then. More on here should try it.
My glass has been half-full since 1981 and it's had to be as i'm a Leeds fan. I suffered 23 years of pain. Things were that bad that most of the Leeds forum are still miserable pessimists, writing the club off every season, even after what's happened in the last decade. Try reading some of the posts on there from before this season kicked off
