How does that work, when it would be a different TV station screening the games in France than it would the UK?  |

are you asking what the differences between NL1 and NL2 are? surely you already know that Starry, one is NL1 and one is NL2, one is the 2nd tier of RFL pyramid one is the 3rd, one is made up of generally bigger clubs than the other, one is a bigger competition than the other, one has better attendances than the other, one has a higher profile than the other, one is in general a bigger league than the other'"
He doesn't understand the difference, Just as he doesn't understand the difference between SL and NL1. Thats why he thinks Leigh are worthy of super league |

Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.

On his face. If he worried he hid it.

Sponsors look to get publicity. If teams play in higher profile games - the sort that get pictures in newspapers, then sponsors are more likely to spend more money on it.
Starbug, where does the RFL get the money it subsidises the NLs with? Sky TV money.

You seriously believe that Batley,Keighley and Blackpool will get more sponsorship because of this ? 
NO it is ' central ' funding  , nothing to do with TV |

I couldn't care less if toulouse helped NL1, neither can the RFL. It is the NL1 that is there to help toulouse develope into a SL club. |

No, Catalan in SL brings in more tv money, but NL coverage generates naff all tv money, in and of itself. Its only covered on Sky because they prevented other stations showing NL RL, even when they weren't showing any themselves. They were, in effect, given a 'show it or it'l go elsewhere' ultimatum. And their coverage has been good these past two seasons. But having a french team in the 2nd tier makes no odds to its televisual marketability.
What the other NL teams lose for TO's inclusion isBienvenue et bon chance a mes amis treizistes en Tolouse... j'espere que je vais aller regarder votre equipe avec les legends de Leigh.. et pardonnez-moi si mon francais est un peut mauvais, je suis vielle maintenaint, et mes journees d'ecole sont tres loin d'ici.....[/i |

Toulouse will help the National leagues immensely by keeping Widnes down when the next franchises are handed out. |

You're right, can't move for bloody Elite League Ice Hockey on the telly
Sticking a foreign team in to a domestic league doesn't automatically give said league a higher profile; can't say that I've noticed increased media coverage in this country on account of Catalans inclusion in Super League. |

On thread drift:
[quote="tb":24qn1m99]Tough. Conversations develop. It's their nature.[/quote:24qn1m99]
Little Pepe went to nursery school one day wearing his Widnes hat. His teacher asked him why he was a Widnes fan. He said, “Because my parents are.” His teacher said, “That’s not good. What would you do if your parents were drug dealers and hookers?” He replied, “Well then I would be a Warrington fan.”
[i:24qn1m99]There's a Wooly over there, baggy kecks and feathered hair
with a 3 star jumper half way up his back, that’s a fecking Wooly back![/i:24qn1m99]

That's not the question though is it?
The question wasWill Toulouse’s inclusion help the clubs in NL 1 and NL 2?
NotDo we care if Toulouse’s inclusion will help the clubs in NL 1 and NL 2?
Sadly you are probably correct in this assumption'It is the NL1 that is there to help toulouse develope into a SL club.'[/i
I'll take the liberty of translating this into English
You’re probably correct. But that’s because the sport lacks any integrity at the highest level.
All these interesting attitudes from fans of SL clubs, towards expansion clubs, would do a bloody quick about face if their own club was threatened. |
