Quote: DemonUK "So the RFL are basically powerless in this situation......FARCICAL. Come back Lewis (nah don't mean it really)
Can't remember where I read it but BBC had 1st chioce, Sky 2nd, BBC 3rd and Sky 4th. If the game they want cannot be played on that date then how can they force them to play it. The time this is taking, I am assuming everyone they have asked has said go forth, all they will be left with is the Marshes'"
I wouldn't say they are powerless, I'd say they should grow some balls and simply tell the clubs, "We have an agreement with the TV companies, these are the days and time you are playing" its then up to the 'home' team to sort out a suitable venue.
