Quote: Pieman "Like I said for a championship side they had 3200 last year as an average against 3600 at Salford with more away support, Cas V wakey out of them games, but you want a team In Toronto who ran out of money?......flat clappers are putting more into the sports than the flash in the pan men who are doing it for publicity or hobby instead of love of the sport'"
When was the last time anything Fev did make the news? Get people talking and interested?
I’ll wait.
Yes I want a team in Toronto. I also want teams in every major city in the world. Why do you not? Why do you want a sport confined to the M62 and two Australian states?
Doing it for publicity is EXACTLY what the sport needs. Eric Perez did it for the love of the sport and the publicity. To get our sport out there to the masses in North America, to get it international recognition, to bring in more money and new fans. To turn people’s heads and get them interested. All of which he achieved. They ran out of money due to a pandemic that no one could plan for. They weren’t entitled to any money from the RFL or the Gvt. Were they mismanaged? Absolutely. They ran before they could walk but they added a new interest to RL and actually widened the sports appeal.
But yeah, let’s bring in Fev or Leigh who are doing alright in the championship
