i'm not sure that this counts as a scientific study.

associate sponsor maybe, main sponsor - no thanks. just my opinion.

Of course it's not scientific, but it's what I believe! icon_biggrin.gif

Why does being an associate sponsor make any difference? Hills were official RFL bookie for years, Fred's are the same for a few clubs and bingo and online bookmakers have sponsored other clubs. I don't quite understand the difference.

Fact remains, those who whinge about the Stobart deal then can't moan when ones offering cash are turned down on a 'moral' basis.

i think the associate sponsor thing is again, like the rest of this debate, subjective. it's commonplace to bet on sports, so having a small sponsor's logo for a bookies on a lapel or sleeve would be okay in my book, but to have them as a major sponsor of the comp or a team would be a bit much.

i still don't know where i stand on the stobart deal for certain, on balance i think it was the right deal at the time for the right reasons, and whilst i've seen many dozens of the trucks on the roads i'm just not sure how much benefit it brings or how it widens the appeal of the game.

i've only seen two on the same carrigeway as me which is when you get to read the details and look at the trucks, so i don't see how a non-league fan would even know the ones on the other side of the road related to rugby league as they flash past at 56mph in the opposite direction to themselves doing 70mph.

I do between 2 and 3 thousand miles a week and I have managed to spot 6, Crabtree twice and sindield once, no clue on the others as they where on the opposite carriage way, good idea in theory just nowhere near enough trucks for people to take notice.

they'd have to develop a razor that would allow sam tompkins to shave without taking the heads of his spots.

Total waste that deal, in the 6 months since I have seen the grand total of 2 Stobart SL wagons, and neither were ours.
Yet another ridiculous decision frfom the RL imo.

I've seen loads - 5 in one day on the M62 going to Liverpool and back.

The question is, does / has it netted any material gain - fans / sponsors / money - and the answer is probably 'very little' icon_confused.gif

says here that tv audiences were up 45%, and attendances were up, how much we can attribute to the deal, I don't think we can tell...

i think we now know why stobart have been "given the push", the rfl need some sponsorship money for the league so they can pay their players to take part....
