| Quote: bramleyrhino "Supporters of the game complain incessantly that this sport doesn't get media coverage.
The Newcastle Chronicle is currently printing RL content every day this week and has actually been very positive and supportive of the event. Its hacks are obviously looking for more content and Newcastle Thunder has obliged, providing a perfectly innocent "one day we'd like to be in SL" comment piece.
What on earth is there to sneer at?'"

[b:1crbsr9w] Toulouse for Championship in 2017, Super League in 2021!

| The ideal situation is if we see Newcastle in Super League in conjunction with London Broncos, London Skolars, Toulouse, Paris, Bradford, Coventry and Oxford, at the expense of Wakefield, Castleford, Widnes and Leigh. The latter four would do nicely as advertisements for the M62 Championship. At the same time Super League would look more national and international. 
At that point nobody in the mass media would would be sneering at the 16 team Super League anymore.  |

| Quote: Angelic Cynic "If only Thunder had not been liquidated in 2009 coach Rowley would have led Leigh Centurions into the lowest tier of professional rugby league.
It may not be hard to beLEIGHve but hard to take.
The Leigh club have bad-mouthed London,Crusaders and Thunder.
Must be hard living in the shadow of Wigan.They seem to have a complex. ![]()
Not that I particularly want to drag the thread out, but it could certainly be argued that Leigh would have finished outside of the relegation places anyway if Gateshead hadn't been throwing around money that they didn't have which of course led to their voluntary relegation.
Anyway, back on topic, 2,500 there tonight, hope they enjoyed it. After a few of their recent results, I backed York at 2/1 from scratch so Newcastle can sod off as far as I'm concerned

No surprise to see a Leigh follower pass comment,and slur,on another club without even reading about the putative reasons for the liquidation.
No surprise to see Keith Christie being one of those from the Geordie Nation who jumped on the 1992 Kevin Keegan bandwagon.
No surprise to see the Leigh born Mick Hogan have a foot in both camps but keep well away from Leigh following his education in a north east university and interest in the other code.
It is no doubt down to the influence of Mr Hogan that the investment and assistance afforded to the Thunder club has been realized.
It is a surprise that someone from Leigh has some discipline,affability and success. |

Starbug here , what have Leigh gambled ? , given current home averages , a decent cup run , £ 500 K central funding and possibly 23/24,000 fans generating a quarter of a million income if we get 4 middle 8 home matches , I don't see a lot of gambling going on
In fact I'd suggest a profit isn't out of the question if we can beat Wire in the semi |

einstien said insanity is when a person does the same thing over and over again but expects a different result: |
|
|
I don't really mean in money terms I mean the players signed that are super league quality and you have a few will they stick around if you don't make SL this season that's the problem

We can be bold enough to make a stand and do battle for our views and beliefs. But we must strive to be mature enough not to resort to unnecessary personal attacks upon people with opposing views.:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_47035.gif |
