Similar article alomost word for word (including quotes!) on the Bradford site:

Probably a marketing tool to give people a reminder to get their tickets sorted.

why do you guys time and again fall for such obvious trolling?
look at the user name, and the fact that the account has few posts to its name, and then the topic at hand which is a wind up
you guys invite such behaviour falling for it all the time
i want toulose in SL one day and i dont think they should come in now
some someone with that name should already signify hes a troll and when you look at the list of pseudo french trolls theres one noticeable ex poster who fits that bill
i think he posts under paristout on another forum

So you want Toulouse in super league. But as my name is Toulouse for super league, that clearly means im a troll. riiigggghhht.
This thread isnt about Toulouse however, its about the massive demand for RL that is in south Wales. The RFL needs to capitalise on this and get a south Wales club into super league.

That's really poor. In fact, almost insulting. You shouldn't write articles quoting people if they haven't actually said it (especially if they've both said the exact same thing!).

er...hold on there buddy. Are you calling me a troll? If so, why?
Someone posted that south wales was a hotbed of RL and SL should get a team in there now.....I suspect that their tongue was firmly in their cheek when they did so....as was mine when I responded.
...is this form of bad humour now classified as trolling? When was this decided? Was there a meeting....a vote? Or is it as usual, that anyone who has a differing view from yours is dismissed out of hand with a one liner.......

Oops... sorry.
The average gate at for SL last year was 11,643....With 7 games a week giving you a weekly average of 81,501......so every SL supporter would need to buy a ticket to sell out MM.
40,000 each day would be good IMO

That's what I meant. To sell out, all of them would have to buy weekend tickets.
I think that if the RFL/SL are going to push ahead with the MM, they need to find a way of getting the clubs to collect payment for MM with Season Tickets and maybe add a quid to the entry on the day prices of regular matches all season, with walk up fans collecting "points' that count as savings against MM tickets. You could even get the buy in from hotel chains etc so the points can be used that way.
This will cushion the cost associated with the weekend and maybe push up the attendance. I would also suggest that deals are done with the train companies to get travel to and from the heartlands sorted in such a way that if 60,000 wanted to make the journey by train they could.
I still say that Wembley should be given a go....but it would need a 50-60,000 gate each day to make it work.......and maybe a split broadcast between SKY and the BBC? Wales and Edinburgh are not going to get the "media" intersted and the only real benefit of the wekend is currently being received by Cardiff hoteliers and publicans.
Crusaders didn't grow as a result of MM and Scottish RL saw no tangible benefit. If the RFL are using MM to try to grow the game it would gain more benefit from media coverage and we all know where the Media are based.
