Don't know about Hudds board but I haven't heard too many people on the Wakey forum say Bradford shouldn't have excepted the money. Negative opinions on what Provident do is another thing but I've read plenty of similar comments from your lot as well. |

Blimey how awful of some fans to express an opinion you don't like, especially one based on moral objections - whatever next  |

Speaking of Huddersfield, A paper dropped onto my desk today as i work in Hudds, £99 season tickets with the option of paying monthly, Still, I would prefer to rub Sh!t in my eyes than watch rugby seated in at the galpharm. |

After the underhand deals struck by the R.F.L regarding Bradford last season, they make Provident Finance look like the National Australia Bank. |

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

73 days to go until SL starts.....I can't think of any other professional sport in the UK that wouldn't have a sponsor for it's league comp announced by now......let alone it's cup comp that has already started ![]()
I disagree. Last year the RFL was lambasted for taking the Stobart 'no cash' deal. They should not be in a hurry to take easy deals. In these straightened times I can imagine that there is sponsorship money to be had from payday loans companies, online gambling outfits and booze producers, but taking such cash would be a retrograde step for a 'family' sport. Premier League wendyball clubs long ago gave up any pretence at sense or morals ( how else can you explain Chelsea's sacking of a manager 3 months after he wins the 'Champions' Cup'? ) so it is to be expected of them to grab money from anywhere. Rugby Union 'sponsorship' is often really patronage. The chaps who run the finance and insurance brands themselves grew up with 'rugger', sell products to ABC1 types who grew up with 'rugger', and, no doubt, enjoy the corporate hospitality at 'rugger' that comes with the 'sponsorship'. These are the same companies, BTW, that destroyed the UK economy. Do I envy Union its income? Yes I do, but we're not going to get their type of sponsor into League any time soon.

Disagree, the NRL manages to attract plenty of blue chip, white collar sponsorships.
ABC used to cover RL mate. |

Austraila is one thing, England ( and it is England really, not UK ) is another when it comes to sponsor interest in rugby codes.
