It is said that Leigh have received a parachute payment from the RFL following their relegation from Super League. The sum of half a million pounds has been mentioned. It may not be true, but if it is.
How much did Hull KR receive in 2016? Did they receive anything? I have no idea. If they did not, but Leigh have. Something very wrong, is going on here.
Surely when we were relegated along with Bradford, due to reducing the number of teams in the League, we would have been due a similar payment.
It strikes me that Red Hall are making the rules up as they go along. It is not good enough.

Life is pretty simple: You do stuff. Most fails. Some works. You do more of what works.:cartoons/WB24.gif |

HOW MANY TIMES?????
£20 a ticket and £15 on beer and merchandise.....so an away fan is worth £35. At best, 1,000 is the average away support split across 11 rounds and I am being really generous here, so Toronto, replacing say Wakefield will cost a SL club £35,000.
The minimum turnover of a SL club is £4,000,000 so Toronto instead of Widnes is worth less than 1% of a SL clubs turnover.
There are many valid reasons for and against expansion into America, but "AWAY FANS" isn't one of them.
