it tell us both Widnes and Wrexham and Sheffield and Doncaster are by some massive coincidence, both exactly 41.83km which is exactly 26miles away from each other.

though why he is telling us this he has yet to explain.

kcab sfrawdder Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done But he with a chuckle replied That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried. So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin On his face. If he worried he hid it. He started to sing as he tackled the thing That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg

Quote: SmokeyTA "No, im suggesting that championship clubs don't exist in a vacuum, and they marketing strategy would need to be altered because they have an SL club, as well as in most cases numerous other championship clubs on their doorstep

Yes, i am suggesting that a club only 12 miles away (for rochdale/swinton and Halifax/keighley, 20 for Leigh/Widnes) is in competition with you for fans. Im suggesting that it is condemning yourself to being a small parochial club when limiting your market to only a 6 mile radius and giving your competitors for fans outside this advice on how to take them from you.

Im suggesting that whilst Halifax and Keighley arent in competition with each other for fans in Halifax and Keighley, they are in competition with Halifax/Keighley and Bradford for fans in Bingley.


im not the one confused why people dont want to help their competitors cannibalise their market.'"



Surely that is something we already are , or are you suggesting that we can all be in SL ?

Do Keighley and Halifax do much marketing in the London area?

Do you think London is as big a part of the potential market for Keighley and Halifax as Bingley?

It depends on the market, whether there are lots and lots of people in a small area or a very small amount of people in a large area.

in the less densely populated areas of RL (i.e East Yorkshire, Cumbria) you would be looking at about a 20miles radius, in the medium (i.e Wakefield district, lancashire(outside manchester)) and more densely populated areas (i.e Leeds, London) between 5 and 10, maybe a bit more.

I dont think those are the options , you however do , at the moment we are small parochial clubs , that does not mean we cannot be strong parochial clubs , you know , like good community clubs as you yourself have suggested in the past , or are we not to be considered worthy of that now ?
