its actually worth quite a lot to sky.if the games were shown on terrestrial tv the viewing figures would be twice those for SL games shown on SKY so for that reason alone its worth more than a couple of bob a season to each club.
as for cheating why does anyone cheat even when they know the consequences of there actions?

I think you'll find that other Leigh fans share the same belief, so less of the 'conclusion that WE are wrong' please.
The fact that we are playing Championship RL instead of Championship 1 RL shows that the RFL doesn't have this huge downer on Leigh that some fans believe them to have.... IMHO.

Wigan cheated to avoid relegation, lets be honest there was no consequences.
Simon Moran handing Matt King a brown envelope of his personal money as wages without declaring it is breaking the law.
The BBC wouldn't take it, you live in dream world. Sky ONLY produce the show as part of the SL tv deal, if it was up to them they wouldn't

with the exception of 5/6 team the whole of RL is built on dreams & not pound signs.
or hadden't you noticed?

Fairly glad you cba getting into a debate ......You could ve stopped at that point but you failed miserably even ignoring your own stance on the matter..... Classic..

Do you have any evidence to suggest that this is true?

No you mean Starbug not willing to continue seeing the RFL sh it on some of it's founder members without asking for explanations as to why ?

If you say so. Grandiose delusions is how i'd put it.



What ARE you going on about? I have trouble understanding the uneducated leythers at the best of times but you're talking pineapple.

Delusions to you because you choose not to see what is in front of you

What he was on about in simple terms so you will be able to understand [ probably the reason you dont understand the visa issue as well ] is you said you CBA [ couldn't be harrised ] to argue the point , and then you argued the point

Don't CC games - screened by the beeb - usually get much higher viewing figures than the SL fixtures on SKY?

I know when we beat Salford in 2001 - live on terrestial - this was certainly the case.

Don't know, but had wondered about this afew weeks ago when a few of us were discussing whether the Beeb might be interested in 'buying into' RL when they complete their move up north, especially now they seem to have lost so many other big events/sports.

no writen evidence pal but there was a grand final [at our level] shown on itv a number of years ago & repeated on channel 5[i believe]in the early hours of the morn & both got better viewing figures than SL & from that moment on our GF has always been on SKY.

I didn't argue the point whatsoever you silly old prat.
I outlined a couple of points without going into any detail whatsoever because the issue has been discussed to death elsewhere. It's you who has been shown up on the visa issue, I commented that yours and Smokeys D1ck waving competition was ruining the thread as it does every other flippin thread on that forum.

At the end of the day, little old Leigh claim they're hard done to when everybody else gets on with it and oh look, you're going to miss out on promotion again, pity Widnes just got on with it eh

there you go again dico just like the rest of them on the vt twisting thing around,making out were fighting on club issues when its plainly obvious thats not the case you think that the london club[even though its failing miserably]& the french club[even though no one who does'nt follow the club in france a has got any idea what SL is]is more important than the 21 clubs that make up the majority of the semi pro & the pro teams in RL & that is obviously not true.in all honesty i'm disgusted & disappointed at the stupidity of the supporters of the major teams in SL that they are so short sighted that they cant see the long term damage thats being done to the game.it really does begger belief.
