Slowcoach, there are plenty of sites on th'internet where you can watch SKY Sports for free. Much better to invest in an IMAC for better viewing quality than to pay subscription fees to SKY.

Let's all do that, then see if Sky Sports still has a spare £200,000,000 to bankroll our hobby.

| Quote: Ganson's Optician "Same with the other five deals announced by Sky today. Why tell their competitors what they are paying?'"
You and others mentioned a figure all I ask is where that figure came from as I have not seen any.

Not sure what I make of it, happy in some respects from our Point of view it's a bonus as we can plan fixtures for the full season now and also no silly midweek trips or games. From the Championship point of view less coverage but only for 12 months then back on Sky!!M'"
Thanks Andy. Do we have any changes to our home games - they were all announced as Sundays, (apart from Swinton on Good Friday) but I thought we were going to try Saturdays too?

| It just says in the press release that Sky will cover both leagues, playoffs and some challenge cup games on 2015. I didn't see anything about 2014.

Keyboard Warriors are out in force again hahaha
You are probably one of the sheeple who also buys his papers and believes all of the crap that is written in them. If you remember it was SKY who split the game in two and their money has been the main cause for greedy SL chairmen stopping P&R for many years. Why should I line their pockets. £200million is nothing to them and the amount of money that RL supporters subscribe to SKY will be a drop in the ocean. You line his pockets then. I'd rather watch SL for free.
And as for Binosh - I've attended more Leigh games than I care to remember and I will be attending more now that the stupid Wiggin agreement has been scrapped. If everyone had abstained from watching the first game after the agreement had been made, then it would have been stopped immediately instead of dragging on like a messy divorce, but there are too many plastic Wigginers in Leigh these days!!!!!!

Presumably there would be one SL team you rather wouldn't watch for free?

We all have a right to an opinion, but what's gone is gone and if you want to play a part in LRLFC's future then that is great but its your choice, Binosh has chosen to play that part
For clarity if 100000 folk take sky primarily for RL then those subs alone more than pay for the £40m pa deal, hence there is a direct income value to Sky from RL
We are entering exciting times not just for our club but for RL in general, for us to reach our potential we need all 'alleged' fans to play a role in the journey and we have to rid ourselves of the little Leigh woe is I attitude of many, replacing it with the Proud Leyther attitude that I grew up with and that does not mean blaming others for our position but taking ownership of our opportunities and creating that bright future many crave
Come and join us you may even enjoy the ride.

| I'd expect funding to be split more along the lines of the 3 tiers of 8, rather than the 2 12's. That way the big clubs will get the bigger shares they will certainly demand, the lower clubs will continue to receive a hell of a lot less, and the position a club achieves at the end of the season can determine its funding for the following year.
