Quote: Krzzystuff "Well let's hope that the NA market can bring in some much needed money to the competition as the English game is in dire need of it with the new NRL wages. Also the money needs to be spread to all the divisions so there isn't such a massive quality gap between the tiers.
New to the sport and especially to the unique RFL fan viewpoints but I do have high hopes for the sport growing over in NA and don't think we will go the way of previous expansion efforts as we started from the bottom, have great corporate sponsorships and most importantly a passionate fan of the game with deep pockets.
Argyle isn't in this for the money and Perez is apparently on a mission from the founding father's of RL to ensure that the game gets the recognition it deserves.
I understand that a lot of fans are doubtful as they have seen this fail many times before but I will be positive and seeing as you are the team to beat next season I'll do my best to bust your guys chops!
If anyone is coming over for the game in Canada let me know as I'm planning on going the games against you, Toulouse and the home opener.
Cheers and may you finish a strong second!'"
I see you've found our home site , and met some of our supporters , everybody is welcome at Leigh both physically and virtually , don't worry about upsetting some of the natives , some would have an argument in an empty room
Like Maurice I also hope that Toronto do succeed and that as you suggest money does enter and filter down , although I have my doubts
If I bump into ' Eric ' , I will be asking him what his plans ( long term ) were for Leigh when they tried to buy us , if of course he offers an honest answer
Anyway all the best , no doubt bump into you on t'uther site
