How the chuff is that relevant.
One game has a place in SL as the reward and the other is a game too far by two sides that have failed to make the top 4 in the Championship. Not quite a nothing game but, not much more, effectively a plate comp for The Championship also rans.  |

Sold out really? Wolfpack have announced free entry for ST holders and have been tweeting about free tickets for others. Not blaming them to build a crowd but sold out, really?

Season ticket holders have bought their season tickets. All clubs have given their season ticket holders free entry to their Super 8’s games. |

Indeed and I understand why. Not blaming them but by the same token let's keep it factual.
In fact I bet that whilst there'll be a bigger crowd announced than Leigh/Fev, the crowd with the biggest proportion of paying people won't be in Toronto!

The MPG is not included in anyone's season ticket. Simple reason is that no club knew the location to be able to make that offer.
In fact Wolfpack made an announcement of their gesture (including bring a friend for free) so either they've lied about their grand gesture or you're wrong. |

No club knew their Super 8 fixtures until last minute, they didn’t know whether they would have 3,4 or 5 home games or who they would be against, still all clubs included home games for season ticket holders. Stop trying to talk down Toronto’s achievements.

Clubs did not include 8s games on the St's..... And as for achievements, they've bought 2 hubcaps and have lost cash doing so..... |

Leeds Rhinos included their four home games on my season ticket, which clubs didn’t? |

Most...... Toronto have made a statement saying that they will be giving away tickets to ST holders..... Why make the statement if they'd already included them?
My mates bar in Toronto CBD was asked how many tickets the wanted FOC...... They've been going into overdrive handing out freebies...... |

All clubs included their home games in the 8"s. Leeds ST included four home games and if they were in the MPG at home that would be a fifth.
Wolfpack announced 4 days ago that season ticket holders could have free entry and bring a friend. Tell me that was part of the ST as well?
So again are Toronto lying or have you got it wrong!?

So who are you tipping for Sunday then? |

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.
