Quote jaybs="jaybs"Here we go again with the gospel according to Gutteffax, get off your high horse for once, if I had ever had taken your attitude I would never have lasted in my career, yes we debated strongly but None of us ever took the High Ground of forever thinking only I can be right.'"
If I was always right, I would have bought the club from DH years ago with the Millions I would have made....I am arrogant, for sure, but not so arrogant to believe I am always right.
Quote jaybs="jaybs"The RFL make this big profit! why? because of one deal that Maurice Lindsay signed with BSkyB no other reason,'"
Maurice Lindsey signed the new TV deal did he? Or the one before that? The RFL make money through a numbe of iniciatives...not just from Uncle Rupert.
Quote jaybs="jaybs"we give away the Super League sponsorship for 100 painted trucks, I have not read any praise in either trade marketing magazines Marketing and Campaign? The Challenge Cup sponsorship is also given away for a pittance these days.'"
So what....simply put, if you work on the maths used by any Outdoor advertising provider, the wagons will be seen by a certain number of eyeballs......that's all outdoor is. The RFL weighed up this offer against the supposed bookies offer...they took it to the 14 Clubs.......the Clubs voted on the offers......the RFL signed the deal accordingly......but you blame the RFL to back up your claim that it's a bad deal
Quote jaybs="jaybs"Yes I can't understand why we don't have a shirt sponsor, it is not without trying contacts in London I have spoke to, but it has to be someone who currently would take it as a tax advantage nothing else with the crowds and the success on the pitch, at least with one colleague I tried to sell it their brand which is now in the North would be seen at grounds with larger attendances and in some TV games!'"
Shirt sponsorship is just one area that has been sorely neglected....the club went into "outsource" overdrive a few years back...it's now reaping what it sowed.....
Eric France wouldn't sponsor Wakey if the company's board weren't fans......nobody knows how much cash is changing hands between Probiz and Castleford.....times are hard, but a plain shirt, the only one in the competition is beyond a disgrace....
Quote jaybs="jaybs"Look at how you come over for once gutterfax, why you feel the need to ridicule anyone else who may say something? why?'"
I don't give a F^&k how I come across. I call it as I see it. I don't ridicule for the sake of it....but I'll be buggered if I will listen to some of the bollox you come up with in defence of the fiasco unfolding in TW2.
