They have tried to run a club in London since the 1930's when they had 2.

It just hasn't worked.

The Rugby League are centred around the M62, and Rugby Union are centred around the M4. Simple.

Where were the sports centred before the M62 and M4 were built?

You call me a gobe, it's fair game, if I called you a gobe I'd be banned for God knows how long from here, what a joke. icon_rolleyes.gif

FTR though you're probably the worst Mod on here.

Some of this sounds familiar...

FWIW it went last night on a freebie, and bumped in to quite a few who also seemed to be new to the sport. Thankfully most seemed to stay to the end which should have left them with a better impression than they got from the first 60 minutes.

Harlequins are the Champagne club, are we really going to sell a Northern game to southerners with that?

Funnily enough I drove down the M4 yesterday and didn’t see any exits signposted for Leicester, Watford, Northampton, Exeter, Sale, Newcastle or Leeds?

And I’ve just posted on the Super League show thread that the BBC will only show the programme in the North bar a 3.15am repeat... I wonder if there is any connection to your perceptions above?

Quote: Starbug "Just out of interest , is there any actual evidence to prove that without a London club the SKY deal will be considerably less ?'"


No idea, I've never used that argument.

However one particular poster is too thick to understand that the RFL have never given us any extra money never mind being bailed out.
