I would suggest if RL fans are unhappy with the coverage given to RL in the DT , the simplest way of showing that unhappiness would be not to buy it , that's how it works

What would be the opinion of the posters on this thread , if I was to do a one person ' picket ' outside Red Hall to show my displeasure at the way the Championships are treated by the RFL ?

Would I see messages of support on these boards ? , or would I be considered a ' nutter ' ?

Awwww poor little hornsgle is going to cry here as well.

Hey, if you don't like what I say, why keep quoting me esp in threads I make SookyBarney, just put this big bad Aussie bully on ignore and stop your bloody whinging?

You're a pathetic little tryhard internet stalker

Did you read the bit in red in my previous post? FANS CAN ATTEND GAMES......Fill stadiums and the papers will pay attention.
As for him reminding the editor of "our plight"...WTF Rugby League is not a friggin' charity and shouldn't have to go cap in hand to anyone.
Southern media bias blah blah blah....show them some coin, or at least an audience and they will write about it.....but 3,000 at the Stoop, 4,000 at Salford or 10,000 for an international in Leigh isn't going to float their boat.

42,000 for the RL International RL Double Header featuring the worlds best 3 teams....Saracens got that for a Heineken Cup match recently......was it because the Daily Telegraph wrote about it....or could it have been the advertising the club placed in and around the area, as well as in the London Press? Saracens average about 6k at normal games, but they spend monsy, advertise and low and behold.....they get 7 times their normal crowd.....
I am sure if they got a disgruntled fan to stand outside the offices of the DT they would have filled the place

You are being rather melodramatic you make it sound like a large scale refugee camp stuck in the middle of a war zone with no food or water. Exactly what dreadful danger or risk are we talking about here?


The paper in question before "the picket" had 28 articles (excluding blogs) during the 4 nations tournament purely about that tournament, this clearly is not 0% coverage and seems fairly good representation for a tournament that generates the level of interest that it does. London version of the Metro covers most of Quins/Broncos games and is on a par with most other sports except football, even the likes of the Mail and the Evenening Standard regularly have articles on RL. Radio London broadcasts most Quins/Broncos game live and a regular RL discussion program. Talk Sport regularly covers and mentions RL. BBC when based in London renewed rights to the Challenge Cup. Sky has been very generous to RL over the years.

Show me some major media outlets based in London covering sport that provides 0% coverage. You are clearly speaking from a position of ignorance, please check the facts.

The "Rugby League" option seems to have disappeared from the Telegraph's sport page today...
