Really? I disagree.
Given you and the Bradford Massive are currently throwing doubt on the % of my stats that are either accurate, inaccurate or just made up, I think it's a very valid question!




I repeat....which is it. 86% or about 86%

so what you're saying is it's probably about 86% but you don't know for sure?

As for my use of the BARB figures, did you g=have an answer as to where the RFL got their Darts and Union figures for their press release?

If only this website had a smilie to sum up my feelings. Oh it does.....

Be very careful when extrapolating polls . As proved by the literary digest poll of 1936. online.wsj.com/news/articles/SB1 ... in_tff_top

Haven't these all been dismissed as witchcraft by the moonie brigade?

69'000 for a live Friday night, lol.

Not bad figures for SL.

Their Saturday & Sunday figures are just as bad. Pretty embarrassing really.

BT need to start sending out free subscriptions, champers & sausage rolls to the Union "fans".
Viewing figures will rocket

Are they counting the TV screens in the back of the range rovers?

Good figures.

Would be interesting to see what a Sunday afternoon game would rate?

Sky must be pretty pleased with that. Nearly 160,000 tune in at 8.30am on a Sat morning, impressive. Would be good to know how the Aussie viewing figures compared to their normal domestic matches...
