| If indeed, all the SL trucks are the white version of the Stobart trucks which do cut us up each day on the roads, they are the chilled lorries.. and on the channel 5 documentary about the company they travel over England and abroad aswel as they take English food to our troops.

Luck is a combination of preparation and opportunity
Just to avoid confusion Starbug is the username of Steven Pike
SOMEBODY SAID that it couldn’t be done
But he with a chuckle replied
That “maybe it couldn’t,” but he would be one
Who wouldn’t say so till he’d tried.
So he buckled right in with the trace of a grin
On his face. If he worried he hid it.
He started to sing as he tackled the thing
That couldn’t be done, and he did it!:9005.jpg |

Comon sense to use the ' chillers', it would be cheaper and easier to livery them up than curtainsiders

| Quote: NickyKiss "The 100 stobart trucks will be few and far between on the motorways of Britain considering they have a fleet of 2250.
We should have taken the betfair money and used the St Helens route of plastering buses with pictures of superleague players and adverts for tickets.
We could have got 1000's of buses all over the shop in Wigan, St Helens, Manchester, Liverpool, Warrington, Leeds, Hull, Bradford, Castleford, Widnes etc etc for less money i'd guess then we'd have recieved from Betfair.
The more I think of this deal the less I like it.'"
You are suggesting that the clubs would have used the 50/70 K each on marketing ?
No chance

This is about increasing the TV audience, and ultimatley the amount of SKY money you recieve'"
But haven't we already signed a long term deal with Sky for a set amount of money? If so then how's this going to help us? I said last night to my mate I don't like the fact that Sky Sports is all over it because it just seems like an advert to get more people to tune in as you say. If thats the case let Sky pay for it!!
To me Sky and Stobarts must be laughing all the way to the bank with this deal but are we? I'm really not sure.

| Thats impressive. Anything to spread the good game is surely a good thing.

| Again i am assuming we have an increased deal with Sky which will have paid for the advertising of the game so the money has come in from them rather than Stobart hopefully for the first year only !
Sky seem to be driving this rather than the RFL as it is they that will really benefit from this with possible increased subscriptions to there service, hopefully theres also a kick back for the RFL
Who knows its all speculation but i honestly cant see the game being sold up the river somehow

In the term of this deal SKY will be monitoring both the take up and demographics of people watching SL , if it starts to change and more affluent [ southern rich folk ] start to watch , then that will become more attractive to their advertisers and therefore should result in a better cash deal from that nice Mr Murdoch next time round
As far as localised marketing to bring in more paying spectators ? , thats down to you as individual clubs , however the slogan on the trailers suggests the opposite , very strange

re which routes these trucks will be on.............as i type my sons doing his weekly round of Stobart depots checking on security...hes also under orders (from me) to interrogate the staff on where these trucks will be seen.
they are staying up north for the foreseeable future.
so its just advertising superleague on tv then?

| It's a pants deal. 100 trucks is nothing. We have given up over a million a year to have some trucks with pictures on them. Seems crazy to me. I'd like to know who the 5 clubs were that voted against it.
