when it comes to RL in france its all in the past.

you can shift the goal posts all you want about not having an elite club now, but thats not what you said earlier.

just admit when you are wrong, its not the first time

dance all you want.

are you really claiming only clubs in the French elite are heartland clubs?

not lower down.

by your logic then, any non SL club cant also be heartland.

just think about this for a minute.

Err yeah, clearly I was talking about the past. Note the "right now" and the "may have been" applied to Mille. I'm quite aware of the history of rugby league in Mille.

As for Lyon, I didn't know that they had ever won the championship but Lyon has never been a solid treiziste area with a history comparable to Mille and I have seen little that has contradicted that.

you had to use google to find out about the trophy gijou mentioned.

trust me, thats not a good look when debating someone

I'm claiming

a) they are not heartland areas
b) they don't support elite clubs

I did not claim that areas that don't have elite clubs can't be heartlands just that neither Lyon nor Mille are.

So what?

Does it alter my point in any way?

ill be honest after the way gijou showed you up, i think ill leave it at that.

its hard to post seriously when you are laughing a lot

see ya

in between giggles, if you knew your stuff here, you wouldnt be needed to google it einstein.

please, leave me for a bit to get over it, my sides are hurting

seems rather hypocritical you saying that after your efforts regarding Widnes going bust, you even had the gall to demand an apology for being proved wrong,

did we ever find out who UTC beat in the 2005 french elite grand final?


maybe if you are going to call people on 'their abuse' you should avoid it yourself, especially when you are wrong

In other words, having had all your crap refuted, you've run out of mud to fling.

He "showed me up" by pointing out something I was aware of.

The number after two is three. I showed you up.

if you were aware of it, why did you have to "look it up"

please mate, ive got to go to sleep soon and i wont if you keep me laughing all night.

have a heart.

Of course I've heard of the French championship just not the name of the trophy. But since I made no statement about either club winning the French championship his point was as irrelevant as yours.

so you admit you werent aware of what he was talking about

thanks for admitting and saving me from having to quote that previous post again

the minute i read gijous post i was thinking ill bet he (ie you) havent heard what hes talking about but will still try and argue with him

thanks for not letting me down mate, im going to bed with a smile on me face
