I must have missed something. When did the BBC become the RFL's PR agency?

It's not even like the Beeb have ignored RL either, it's been mentioned plenty of times, just because people haven't heard it doesn't mean it hasn't happened.

There's been an advert on talkSPORT for cup final tickets for weeks, as well as a couple of competitions to win tickets, Morley and JP have been on various media outlets promoting it too.

The promotion could be better, but it could for anything, overall IMO it's not been too bad.

Was mentioned during the Diamond League athletics on bbc3

They aren't but surely they want people to watch they're coverage.

I didn't ask to be facecious, I genuinely haven't been watching any telly this week. But usually, the standard of the CC Final promo compared to the RU ones is like Hollywood vs Cricklewood.

One bonus is that the audience wouldnt have had to look at the thick toothless goon that is JP. How poor must he come across on the radio. At least his ugly looks detract from his bile when he is speaking on TV.

I'll give you his address if you want to tell him about this in person.

He's awful, yet the BBC think he's the next Des Lynam. Mark Chapman would have been a much better host if available.

And they are plugging it.

Unfortunately, the BBC could cancel Eastenders for an hour-long trailer in prime-time and this boards would still be littered with pharocial whinging.
