ESPN could get it or the BBC could still keep it this just means they are no longer made to show it

...Very mischeivous Sally.

Seriously, its a lot more complicated than that, and I think you know it...

Using your example then.....If Wire decided to charge £35 to watch a match, compared to say a tenner, would we get the same attendance??...

More than likely, for £35 you'd get your real hardcore fans, with virtually no casuals turning up....for the tenner you'd get a lot more casuals.

Of course, its got to be a case of balancing up your budgets....Either take a hit in your wallet in order to gain more exposure, or simply go with your faithful followers and keep the purse topped up.

The League Cup is still well supported and thats on Sky - quite why folk are blaming Andy Burnham I`m unsure as the decision was made by a committee containing such RL illuminaries as Eamonn Holmes and Colin Jackson ...

You can moan about scrapping the CC or whatever but it`s still the one RL trophy that entire communities relate to as proved by 25k plus Wire fans at Wembley ...

rugby league is and always will be a minority sport if the bbc is bringing f1 and the ashes then i'm all for that.

In my opinion i like the coverage on BBC. but if the bbc drop it, what will replace it? Gymnastics? and TBH i think more people would enjoy a good old knuckle scraping game of rugby league than some woman prancing round in a leatard.
