Exactly , it's like saying England is not a heartland RL country because the whole country is obsessed with Association football

No because rugby league isn't sufficiently popular to be a heartlands area.

Dally you really need to try harder than that. That was particularly weak trolling.

Another sport dominates all England.

So by your reckoning there isnt a heartland for RL in this country?

But he's been doing it for so long. It's kind of worn a bit thin for me now.

Which given that he has said that "all clubs are expansion clubs" in the past almost makes sense. By his standards naturally.

peripgnan was once a RL heartland.

60 years ago isnt 2005.

except if thats the last time your team won any silverware.

A week or two ago, you were arguing that Lyon and Mille were heartlands on the strength of stuff that happened 60 years ago.

Perpignan and Toulouse both have rugby league clubs that have been around for a long time, they both have several other clubs in their vicinity. Rugby league was hardly a new sport that wasn't played locally when UTC was formed nor when Toulouse joined the English league. That is what is meant by "heartlands".

heartlants to me isnt where a rival sports crowds are ten times your own crowds

prior to UTC merging each club was lucky to get 1000 fans whilst the scum USAP get 13,000 or so

so no thats not my idea of heartland

RL in france was comatose. anybody that argues Les Cats success was a sure thing because they are a heartland team is simply stupid
