What's even more interesting is that I've not heard anyone, celebs or otherwise, bigging up England RU or the RU World Cup in general. In fact the only stuff I've heard has been criticism and boredom.
SL has attracted some excellent and enthusiastic comments from people in the public arena in the last few weeks. What a shame we don't have people at the top who know how to capitalise on them.

Rio Ferdinand & Wayne Rooney are big fans, I remember when the 2007 Rugby World Cup was on and Rooney was asked if he had been watching it and he said something on the line of "No I've been watching the League and it's brilliant"

Also a few cricketers who have bigged up the sport - Ryan Sidebottom bigged up the 9's Tournament

You've stolen my washing
From out my back garden
You've tarmacked my driveway
Even though I said no
You've nicked my lead flashing
And weighed it in at the scrappy
Oh St Helen's tatters
Come rob me again:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_25852.jpg |

Quite a lot of cricketers and footballers have good things to say about RL. Sides is a Bulls fan (I think), Matthew Hoggard likes it, Fred Flintoft's partial to a game, Nicky Barmby is a Hull FC season ticket holder.
What amazed me was finding out that, despite being built like a rugby player, Tim Bresnan had trials for Leeds United!

roy keane of course is a regular at the international games, and nicky wire from the manics likes his league too - warrington fan i think
of course no better time for some tongue in cheek promotion of the upcoming 4 nations tournament - along the lines of, 'bored by the union world cup? - try another variety' backed with some quotes from these celebs, but you just know the rfl wont do anything like this, sadly

Spot on Cronus.
If we had the marketing of union and we obviously have the sport we could overtake the buggers.  |

THE ONLY WAY TO GET SMARTER IS BY PLAYING A SMARTER OPPONENT
How you expect to run with the wolves come night when you spend all day sparring with the puppies?:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_34025.png |

Nick Barmby, answering a question on Soccer AM something along the lines of "Who is the best footballer ever to play for Hull?" and the former England international gives Jason Smith as his answer, cue dead silence and Barmbys explanation, good lad. |

Probably been brainwashed by James Graham. He's an Evertonian. Being an Aussie he's bound to be aware of RL anyway and Saints are his "local" team |
