Freedom for supporters of the government, only for members of one party - however numerous they may be - is no freedom at all. freedom is always and exclusively for one who thinks differently.

Hope the rumour about Sky paying the RFL directly is true or they may struggle for their reimbursement.
Shame.'"
The RL club's a completley seperate entity, so this is irrelevant. |

if they cant run financially stable in the championships they shouldn't be allowed in SL anyway'"
Think you are half right but allow their Super League games to be shown free to air.
S4C happily show Glamorgan 20-20 games that Sky don't want to broadcast despite Sky being the contract holder and with fans in Wales used to Friday Night Magners League Rugby it would be interesting if a deal could be done to carry on that when the Union season ends with the remaining Crusaders home games and perhaps a few away ones too.
Whether there is the will within the Welsh TV stations to try to make it happen is another matter. |

And don't forget that S4C are now effectively owned by our 'friends, the BBC.

| Quote: wakeyrule "I love it how the RFL think professional RL will take off in London/Wales just because they want it to!
No-one says they are - thats why the RFL need to earn their money and sell it to them. Its got to be worth a try, and better than keeping clubs with gates below 5000 in at the expense of other clubs who are better supported. Its all well and good talking about potential, but Quins and Crusaders don't seem to have any, except in Lewis's fevered imagination. Catalans has been a good result, but they should be looking to expand the French RL - hopefully in the future we'll see a strong league in France with the potential for a competitive European trophy, but that is a long way off.
IMO the real potential remains in the M62 corridor, and we should be looking to expand from that firm base in a measured manner and not trying to force-feed RL to an audience that doesn't want it. The key to succesful business is to identify your customers and then create and build on a sound customer base - not go piling into an area where your product isn't in demand, or even wanted!'"
yeah i agree wakey have a hell of a lot of potential
maybe in 100 years more they can realize it instead of promising a lot and delivering little
thanks for that 100% biased post |

Never confuse realism with bias. Wakefields tenure in SL has been irritating to many, but we've NOT been relegated. Changing the rules of the game to get the result you want (Wakey out) - now THATS what I call biased! |

Fair enough.
I suppose if you are imagining the rules its perfectly reasonable to imagine they have been broken. |

That’s still the case, only now, Red Hall store the definition of 5hitty, in a locked cupboard, next to Nigel’s biscuit stash. |
