JESUS WEPT :WALL: HOW MANY TIMES????? £20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000. The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover. There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them. :BEAT::d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_76030.jpg

Hull KR the pride of East Hull.:



Just a question, that I'd be be grateful if anyone can answer.

At elland rd tonight, when the referee went to the big screen. In the ground the screen was just an advert and then a spinning wheel with the decision. So we really had no idea what was going on. Or how he reached the final decision. Or why he'd gone to the screen in the 1st place.

Why has this changed?

At least before you could the decision process. And had an idea what was going on.

They have a video ref sponsor now, hence the new spinning wheel graphics, but you would think they would still show the replays on the big screen. Does anyone know if it was like that at last weeks games.

Warrington sounded poor, but then again what do you expect with the lack of a strong bench and your main pivots being Ratchford, Brown and Patton?

Both teams were very poor, could have fallen asleep watching the game. As a neutral watching the game i worry for both sets of fans as if they play like that i cant see them picking many wins up. Saying that its only the second game of the season and a lot can change.

What struck me about Warrington was how everything stopped at Ratchford.. They looked quite fluent in attack until he got hold of the ball and doesn`t seem to know what to do with it, which 9 times out of 10 results in him switching up direction and running around like a headless chicken. I have always liked Ratchford as a player but i think Wire would benefit from a steady fullback that can chime in the line.

[b:1crbsr9w] Toulouse for Championship in 2017, Super League in 2021! Avignon for Championship in 2021, Super League in 2022! [/b:1crbsr9w]:d7dc4b20b2c2dd7b76ac6eac29d5604e_18302.png



Shocking result in the Friday night game. Silly Salford scored three tries to two tries by wicked Wakefield. Silly Salford deserved to win but could not kick a goal. So wicked Wakefield got the two points.

Incidentally, what a joke of a ground that Belle Vue is. One stand located along one sideline with only about 6 rows. On the opposite side no stand at all. Then at one end behind the posts a small stand, and at the other end a building that looks like an apartment block but isn't. What a dreadful venue for watching rugby league!

Considering it wasn’t at our home ground, on a Thursday night, on sky, bitterly cold and torrential rain, that’s pretty impressive.

I can see your point jeannie it doesn't look good on television, which is about as near as you've ever been to the ground, and as you know is nowhere near as good as Victory park where you watched most of your rugby.

I like the term wicked Wakefield jeannie it sounds far more affectionate than woeful Wakey don't you think icon_biggrin.gif

Good old Wigan, accidentally almost knocking a player out with a head clash but still celebrating the hit and outcome as the Hull lad has to come off wondering if his jaw is still in place and how many marbles he’s lost.

If Wigan are clinical here they’ll score 50+

Hull have got no right winger
