They will do next season if they make SL....and they won't be paying air fares for visiting sides either, so they better be bringing a TV deal with them when they come  |

London is 3x that size and the Broncos get 3 figures, Newcastle is half a million and Thunder get around 1200, Sheffield is around half a mill too and get similar gates.....go figure...
Brand awareness. Something that hasn't yet latched on the British RL heartlands.... |

Quality photo. Probably more fans in that one photo of one small section of the stadium than all the other championship clubs get at each home game.

Indeed. The benchmark has now been set. No excuse now. |

You see, why can't people praise Toronto if they have to without the condescending, antagonist comments towards championship clubs.

Because the mod/mod’s mate with the multiple accounts want to spark debate/arguments across the forum because there are only about six of us who post on here and without his eight accounts the place would be like a ghost town. |

It’s not antagonistic at all. I’m comparing like for like and pointing out for a championship level club, how well Toronto are doing. I also think it’s pretty laughable given Toronto are taunted at literally every post by certain fans of championship clubs yet when positive news is posted dummies are flung out of the pram.

Must admit though, watch the highlights, looks more than 6K at Brooky.

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
