He is only following in a long line of others that do the same though , some use an emoticon , some use pedantry , some just insult and pretend they are operating on a higher intellectual level to avoid answering simple questions , oh and Smokey just try's to make the argument that complicated till you get bored

He has slight dementia.

"Why would you want one of those? You can't get lost. There is no fun in that."

Bit of a giveaway you would have thought.

So you want big cities in SL but happy with regional towns in the NRL? Sure there is some logic in your arguments somewhere!

Quote: JB Down Under "

Exactly, which is why it is pointless trying to argue with him because he is either a troll or too stupid to come to a logical conclusion.

He is arguing that Wakefield should be kicked out of SL. Last year he was saying that they should never kick a club out. Contradiction.

He is arguing that West Yorkshire is a football area (which to be fair, like every part of this country, it's true). Last year he was saying that it wasn't, even saying we should add up the attendances of the clubs (which still proved him wrong!).

Now he is arguing we should let in expansion clubs no matter what, and IN THE SAME THREAD has said he would rather have a NSW NRL club (non-expansion) over WA Reds (expansion). Isn't that like picking a Yorkshire or Lancashire club over Toulouse?

He doesn't reply to anything I post anymore because I've humiliated him one too many times. So if someone else would be kind enough to probe him for these points I would be greatfully amused icon_lol.gif

random for those that are mentally challenged.

why should a club provide reserves for a period which is longer than the 3 year franchise period?

why not just have them provide a 3 year reserve instead, and with the money saved they can fund leigh for 3 years?

Quote: bowes "What's amusing is you want to destroy SL by replacing teams people watch with far worse teams that noone would watch and yet apply completely different standards to the NRL, where the expansion teams have more chance of working.

There is not a shred of evidence that there's RL interest in Paris to support a SL team and lots of evidence it couldn't.

Toulouse might work one day, but they are clearly making no effort.

Can you please explain why a team making no effort to meet SL criteria and right near the bottom of the Championship (and that with exemptions from the overseas quota) should be let into SL? Remember them being French is not an argument, nor is their cities population as SL isn't a charity'"


typical flat cap moronic reply.

always seeing it in simple black and white terms

SL has enough heartland clubs in it, especially from small places. it doesnt need more of these clubs. the only way they should be allowed into SL is at the place of another small town heartland club which has failed

if SL expands the number of teams from now, it should do it with expansion teams that could actually grow the sport a lot 10, 20 years down the track

the only thing destroying SL is poor heartland clubs with hopeless crowds and poor stadia. to show how poor these clubs are, Les Cats have done more in 3 years than these guys have in decades

Quote: Starbug "Like paris you mean'"


PSG was a poorly set up club and got very good crowds.

indeed, much better crowds than leigh, a club with a new stadium and supposedly a heartland club
